Dilemma
I currently have two kits (Pearl MLX 5 Piece in Piano Black - 22x16, 13x11, 14x12, 16x16 & a Yamaha Recording Custom in Cherry - 22x16, 10x9, 12x10, 13x11, 16x16)
My dilemma is, I have been offered good money by a friend for the MLX Shells. I do love this kit though but it is heavy. This is my main gigging kit. The Yamaha is surrounded by cotton wool & I am extremely possessive over it. I baulk at the idea of using it to gig with & also, the majority of gigs we play are kit share. If we headline then we supply the shells. I won't be comfortable with it.
I am "Tempted" to buy a gigging kit of lesser quality than the MLX & would certainly be looking at second hand. This is the conundrum though.
Thoughts anyone? I play in two Punk Bands.
Kind regards, Kevin
