thats a stock pic from the web site but u will be happy to know that my toms are all flat no tilted. cymbel wise i have some zildjian zbts but i am going to upgrade or atleast get some more cause all i have is a crash, crash ride, and hi hat. this replacees my pevey interanional serries 2 kit. it sosted like 1200 but deffently worth it.

Those Mapex kits are the second best for that price. Of course Sonor Force 3005 beats it :p don't worry it's just because I have em. Nice set you bought man. Not the sizes I would buy but nice job on the virgin bassdrum it will look awesome.

is it really a 14x10? because in one it will be 14x10 and another will be 13x11, i was torn between that kit and the one that has 22x18,10x8,12x10,14x12,16x14 pack.

yea those are the sizes it tottaly a good buy. i cant compar it to the sonar but i like it. virgin bass is the way to go. the only bad thing about it is that i couldnt get it in natural gloss finish. but the chery is translucent and also amazeing.

Not the sizes id like, but that sounds cool, replace your cymbals before buying new ones though, a hihat crash and ride can be plenty

That sounds great if you're doing for a bonham style kit.

What kind of snare are you getting?
Or is one coming with the set?
I like the finish too.
