Got my new 18" HHX china today, the guy in the store knocked it down from £189 to £170. Ye-harr. It sounds absolutely gorgeous, really really trashy.
This set-up is only temporary, I originally had the Yammie up as well for teaching purposes, so the Beverley was a thrown together effort. I liked using the 10" BP as a main snare, and I forgot how nice the Bev's sounded, so I kept it up for a change.

I know the entire room is a total mess, it makes me feel more at home!

This pic is with my 12" VFX hats on. The rest are with the 14" HHX Evo's.

Ok, spanks:

1970's-ish Beverley
22", 13", 16"
10x5" maple BP snare

Various skins, I'd replace a few but there's no point at the moment.

Sabians:
14" HHX Evo hats
12" VFX sig hats
14" AAX-Celerator hats (not shown)

16" AAX-Plosion crash
15" AAX Dark crash (not shown)
18" HHX China, replacing the 16" Pro china I originally had.
7" HHX Evo splash (not shown)

The Yamahas are Stage Custom Advantage, 22", 10", 12", 14,2 and a 14"x5" snare which is still at uni at the moment.

Ideally I want to replace all the heads with either coated Ambs, of clear Emps (for the toms), and a PS3 for the bass.

ProMark sticks, either 5a or 5b.
21" Raw Bell Dry Ride

They were made on the same shop floor as Premiere, around the 1960-70's. This kit, but in smaller sizes, was featured in the vintage section of Rhythm a couple of months ago.

You should see it with both kits up. Hella fun. Sometimes before going to bed or whatever, I'll go and sit in there for a while and stare at them and ponder stuff.

HHX chinas are amazing, I got one a few weeks ago.

I got mine for £100 though, new.

The upside down premier logo made into a b makes me giggle.
