    Which kit should I get?

    I'm a drummer who's got a real crappy kit. It's a simple 5 piece Westbury Kit with Solar by Sabian Hats and Crash/Ride a Zildjian ZBT Crash, an LP Timbale Cowbell and a Meinl Hi-Hat Tambourine. I've completely revamped the snare with an Evans Power Center Reverse Dot batter and an Evans Hazy 300...

    Does this sound like a good kit to go for?

    I have a bit of money saved up, and I am planning on going for an intermediate level kit. I've had a "Westbury" kit for a year and a half now, and it just isn't doing it for me. I play mostly hard rock, but I go anywhere from classic rock, to black metal, to blues, to techno/drum and bass, and...

    Snare Questions

    Does anyone play video games?

    Iron Cobra: Jr. vs Standard

    I'm planning on buying a new kit, and along with it, I need a double kick pedal. Iron Cobra is one of my choices for a pedal. But, I've noticed that the Junior is much cheaper, and is only missing a few things. It's not dual chain drive, which is only a little more stable, I mean, if you have a...

    Which kit?

    I'm looking into buying my first kit. I am a multi-instrumentalist. I am not a beginner drummer, in fact, I have gigged my drumming skills before with intermediate songs. I usually just use kits of 2 of my drummer friends that I jam with frequently to practice with. My sister has a beginner kit...
