Ya, so today I was looking for another Bass drum (I was deciding between getting another bass drum or floor tom) and ya, I was looking for Pro m drums (just one lol) and ya, i found something much better than i expected.

I saw one little title (no picture, just a camera symbol, and it said "Mapex Pro M drum Set" and the price was 61$ (at the time) and ya, I checked it out and EXACTLY what I wanted to add onto my kit was there.

SO ya, (after QUITE the bidding conmpetition) I got it for 161$ lol. I will be adding this little drumset onto my set


http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7422887917&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&rd=1

In august I am getting a friend of mine to refinish my set, (just redo the orange) so I am gonna get him to do the same with these (he has already taken a look at all the drums and said he can do it for a joke [he is extrordinarily good at all works of art{metal working, painting, airbrush art, wood work, and staining}]) so ya, In about two months time I will ahve a complete matching drum set of this

2 18X22 bass drums
1 10X9 Rack tom
2 12X10 Rack toms (ya I don't know to keep the second one, I probly will)
1 12X14 mounted Floor Tom
1 16X16 Floor Tom
1 Chad Smith Sig Snare
1 Sunlite aluminum snare

9 drums, All the sizes I wanted, ( was deciding between an 18X 22 bass drum or a 16X 16 Floor tom, and I got them both ofr much lesser than i was expecting to pay for one :) ) Ya, so As you can see I am excited as hell. (

Post Script- I will be pixing up the snare drum I.E Extreme polishing, maybe a new paint job,

Post Script #2- Also I will now ahve 9 Mapex Pro m drums that intotal i only payed 500$ for haha I love finding deals

Post script #3- If the link doesn't work tell me I will post Pics

You can get new productions of them for few hundred bucks, it's the old collectors versions that can run anywhere from 500-2000 (perhaps more) bucks.
