Re: Begginer metal head!


My used cymbals:
14" crash $100(now use it as a hi-hat)
Current ride $70(i also crash, buy a pingie ride)
18" crash $40(I had a friend who worked in the drum department)
16" crash $100(Daddys junkie music, they dont know drumming at all)
other 18" $150(bought it from a friend, he needed the money, cracked, but sounded great, I still play it, it also help me found "my sound")
14" hi hats $60(sound jazzie I use em for punk, they ad another cymbal brand to my kit)
17" crash $60(adds another brand)
14" hats, new but friend sold them
9.5" zil bell $50(ping)
22" china $200(i'm thinking of buying this, they sell for over 400 online)

Used drums:
Yes Dave Matthew's drummer uses a similar kit...
Yamaha recording custom, I bought it for $500, A bit rusty, used about $200 at the most to get new hardware(my drum mentor from the shop gave me some of his own unneeded yamaha equipment)

I have broken it into a 13 16" tomed kit (punk/rock use mostly)
also I use the rest of the tome as a fusion(10 12 14")... like lastditch(an old forum member skinslapper will remember, Metal!)

If it comes with heads the tops will occupy you for a wile untill you need to buy more, one pair of bottom heads can be played for years!


P.S. if your having trubble figguring this out, pm me and ill pm me and ill try and pm you in a week. thank you, hope you can read this!
