I use different kits for different purposes.. different sized kits with less or more components depending on the type of gig (indoors on a big stage vs. small venue stage, or outdoors etc.). Moving high end kits around by DW, Yamaha, Tama or Sonor - can break my back esp. the hardware and kick drums.
So it got me thinking.. what if I had one kit that did it all.. My criteria is 3 toms, 3 cymbals (ride + 2 crashes), kick, snare, hats and throne.
So what is the best kit that hit's that sweet spot - where it's lightweight but solid in construction, reasonably sized (not too small or big) and has high end sound?
Bonus points if you can move it all in one trip on a dolly! (in lightweight cases of course)
