http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e308/Maggotbrainz/Picture006.jpg My only cymbal at the moment...but I decide to just go for quality to start. This is my first set by the way, and I paid for this mostly through poker money. Yeah, I was on a roll.!

Sweet man! Great choices all around so far.

[puppet.master]

looking good
im not the biggest fan of the finish but its still sexy
great to see some nice tom angles

one toms higher than the other might wanna line them up

[Btrutt87]

I love the look of sonors.

i hate looking at this forum when im in my dorm room. it makes me miss my set :( hopefully i can drag a snare and hi hat and bass drum into my frat room next year

[Icky_Mettle]

It's a Sonor 3003 kit in Caribbean blue/green, if you guys didn't already know, and I really love the finish. I've noticed that the tom was a little lower also, I wasn't sure if that was the way it was supposed to be, but my teacher didn't change any of my tom angles...just tuned it a bit and lowered the snare.

I really really love the kit, the new beats came yesterday....god they're so incredibly sexy. Mid 90's, kept in great condition...the kit's tuned fairly high, but I thought it sounded best that way...I'll mess around with it when I get some new heads.

[rockindrummer]

Awsome man. That looks really great! Nice choice on the 3003's and the New Beats aswell man.

[ludvista29]

I Like it

[Icky_Mettle]

A ride is next on my list, I'll probably have that by mid April.

[playwithfire]

Looks like an older set of New Beats. Great lookin' kit though.

[overnothing]

Nice...I just got that kit in the mail last wednesday same color too. It is awsome with some new heads and some a customs. Good choice.

[playwithfire]

A Customs = over-rated. My opinion. Great cymbals, but there are plenty of other great choices out there, and brilliant finish sucks.

[Icky_Mettle]

Yes. They're mid 90's, but very well maintained. I could've gotten some newish ones for the same price, but I really like the look of the 90's ones, and they sound incredible.

[drummer-from-da-KY]

nice set.. im diggin the finish..

[Undisco Kidd]

Nice set.

And omfg. That Flaming Lips poster is so hot. If they come within a state of here for their At War With The Mystics tour, I am buying tickets asap. Best band evar.

Agreed, but they're coming here for SXSW next week and there's no way in hell I'm going to get in. This makes me a VERY sad panda.

[ThugsRook]

I really like the look of the 90's ones...
they dont really look any different :confused:


anyways, nice lil kit ya got there, setup well too.
now go get some cymbals :p


:chug:

[Drum Monkey]

Nice looking set there! I don't know for sure but is your floor tom backwards? Also, consider moving your hi-hat stand a little further out and lining it up a little more with the bass pedal, it may help a little, maybe. ;)

-DM

[Zildjian]

looks real nice, i love the finish

[Tim]

nice set man. youll enjoy it. new beats are great.

[SkaRabbit]

hawt

[Fade like a sigh]

points for Sonor, Im not crazy about the color. The hihats look like they could use some polish (unless thats the way they're supposed to look).

[Swiftay]

lookin good my friend! Except those sonor pedals give me nightmares, they look like something the devil created.

How does it sound?

[Against-the-Scene]

looking good.

[destroyer of senses]

maple??

A ride is next on my list, I'll probably have that by mid April.

Really? I thought a crash before a ride. Depends on your style I geuss.

[Icky_Mettle]

Really? I thought a crash before a ride. Depends on your style I geuss.
Well....I figure I can crash on a good ride...most people agree that a ride is probably more important than a crash.

Oh, and it sounds like the sex. Especially the new beats! :smash:

[Bonham#1!]

My ride sounds ugly when I crash it(sigh)
