Re: Begginer metal head! Don't get sucked into the more is better philosophy.
If you can get away with less drums you will save yourself in the future.
Think about it... every time you add a drum you gain two new heads to purchase. That can drive the cost of head replacements up rather quickly.
If you can find a quality four or five piece kit... four piece kits are rare to find... stick with that. I have a Pacific 602 pedal which is nice for starting on. For cymbals stick with the packs that stores offer... you will get a better deal... Oh and don't be afraid to buy used cymbals. I bought many a cymbal for 1/3 of the price simply because it was used.
20" crash/ride Zildjian for $100
17" Zildjian crash for $90
13" Sabian medium crash for I think $60
Just keep your eyes open. |
