[AdultSwim815]

Just a question for those who posted.
Dosn't this make you want to go rob a bank so you could get all of that stuff?
Ahh, when I get a job I'm going be getting a cymbal a week probably until I replace my factory cymbals, then it'll be cymbal/hardware for it every 2 weeks but I can't wait, my set (tama swingstar) will be the sickest set up you have ever seen once I get the cymbals and stuff, but right now I'm kind of thinking about instead of getting full Sabien B8's I might spend a little more, well a lot more, and get Bosphorus Gold cymbals but I'm not sure. But none the less, my set up will be lots of cymbals one way or another and I'll probably get 1 floor tom, and 1 snare drum, and have the floor tom by my current snare, and the snare by my current floor tom.

[Zildjian]

EDIT: ^^^ I don't think it will be the sickest set I have ever seen, Have you seen some of the sets on this sight??

Lets see, I would get some.....What the hell I like my kit I own now, i say nothing..

:lol:

Funny kid, you are. A cymbal a week, and this will be your FIRST job? At minimum wage with about 20 or so hours a week? I don't think so, but the best of luck to you :thumb:

[AdultSwim815]

Sabian B8's my friend, so they arn't expensive but they are still good cymbals. The most I have seen a B8 for was $120 I think.
I'm wasn't talking about Bosphorus Gold's when I said cymbal a week.

[Half Life]

To tell you the truth, B8's arn't that great man. If your going to be upgrading your whole setup and you only play at home, by yourself, and you DON'T do any shows...buy professional quality cymbals one at a time. It's much more worth it in the end. Otherwise, if you buy the B8's and deck your whole kit out with them, eventually you'll want something even better, and then spend even more money to redo your whole setup again...but then again, I guess it is your choice.

[santi3hg]

I'd buy a wolf.

[Quinto]

[FockerTheLopper]

An A Ping Ride exists. I don't think it comes in 21" though. There is no K Ping Ride.

You could've just went to the Zildjian site and looked it up yourself instead of being a lazyf*ck.

[Undisco Kidd]

I'd buy a wolf.
I'd buy a bigger, stronger wolf, that would eat your wolf, and then you'd say "****, I just wasted 3000 dollars.'

[GhostNote]

I would buy (australian $$$):

15" and 17" K custom dark thin crashes.
19" A zildjian armand ride.
20" K custom Dry Light ride
22" K custom dry complex ride
12" and 14" toms for my kit.


-GN

[zfzgg]

I'd buy $3900 (Aus) worth of cymbal felts.......

And then a stand to mount my precious cymbal felts on..

Nah, to be honest, i'd give it to my mum!

[CasB]

Peace Paragon (4 piece)
Big Dog Hardware
Masterwork cymbals

[santi3hg]

I'd buy a bigger, stronger wolf, that would eat your wolf, and then you'd say "****, I just wasted 3000 dollars.'

Oh yeah, I'd buy a killer rabbit that would rip your wolf into 5 pieces.

[We_Love_Lime]

Oh yeah, I'd buy a killer rabbit that would rip your wolf into 5 pieces.

I would than evenly distribute the five peices of wolf among the natives to establish an equalibrium of food.

[TormentorScott]

Well I have all the cymbals I want for the most part. But I'd trade
my current ride in and get a Zildjian 22" A custom ping ride. I've grown
to love that ride!

Then maybe a Tama Starclassic Bubinga kit, I'm really digging those
drums... A 13x11 Rack Tom, 16x16 Floor Tom, and a 20x16 Bass Drum. Keep it simple and somewhat small.

For a finish on that, some sort of natural wood finish with brass hardware or sumfin.

A new snare eventually. But I'm liking the Chad Smith right now.

[santi3hg]

I would than evenly distribute the five peices of wolf among the natives to establish an equalibrium of food.

Then I would unleash my bunny of doom on the locals.

5000 Hardware
A couple effects cymbals

[Quinto]

which ride is most similar to an a ping ride in the k series


p.s. i know theres no 21" ping ride thus why its part of my dream set up cuz it would cost tons of money for a custom cymbal, and thats the cymbal i want. i didnt go on the zildjian websie cocaberry cuz my internet is messed up and i have a virus and my address bar is gone and this is in my favorites list, so shut your mouth.

p.p.s i would go to jurasic park a get a really freeking big dinosaur that would eat you all so you would stop talking about wolfes and rabbits and all that stuff
