| ________________________________ [Apr 18,2006 5:02pm - Ryan_M ""] i've been playing about 4 months now; i got a Borg drumset for christmas, which i discovered was purchased at Sam's Club, hahaha! it's a cheapy drumset, only a few hundred bucks, but i like it, it came with bass drum, kick pedal, snare, two mounted toms, floor tom, hi-hats, crash and ride cymbals/stands, even a tambourine and cowbell! it's not the best, but it's good for practicing. the cymbals are starting to get a little beat up and dented from beating the crap out of them, especially the hi-hats, so i'll need to buy better ones, but the drums themselves hold pretty nicely. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 18,2006 5:18pm - mOe @ work ""] yea, the heads and the drummers tuning ability make the drum sound for the most part especially with lower level drums like that |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 18,2006 5:45pm - DEATH2ALL ""] 18 yrs. Tama Starclassic Custom. Assorted cymbals. Axis Pedals. Alesis triggers on the kicks. |
| _________________________________________________ [Apr 18,2006 5:48pm - TheAccursedDrummer nli ""] I've been playing for 18 years, and am nowhere near as good as I should be after that fucking long. I play Yamaha Stage Customs (black stained finish) (22" kick, 10" & 12" toms, 14" & 16" mounted floor toms) 13" x 6.5" Yamaha Musashi (oak) snare Zildjian, Sabian, Paiste & Wuhan cymbals (I buy the sound, not the name, and fuck it, they all break the same!) a 7.25" generic Home Depot sawblade I mount it all on a Pearl ICON rack system (with some Gibraltar hardware.) Tama Iron Cobra 2 legged hi hat stand DW 9000 Double pedal Vater XD-5A sticks (that I break at a ratio of at least 2 per show...) Evans and Aquarian heads (which ALL need to be replaced, of courese...) and the most important part, my LP cowbell. I would be more uniform in what I buy (all Sabian, all Tama, etc...) but playing the kind of music I do, I don't really plan on getting all that many endorsements thrown my way, so I just buy what's comfortable or sounds good to me. |

| __________________________________ [Apr 18,2006 6:30pm - brian_dc ""] I see that saw blade...I remember when murph had a blade on his kit....those were the days. |
| _____________________________________________ [Apr 18,2006 10:33pm - theaccurseddrummer ""] cavnli said:that dude needs more cymbals Oh, I'm working on it, believe me. The plan is to set up enough cymbals to completely obstruct what I'm doing. I'm not a big "crowd" person. :NEWHORNS: |

| __________________________________ [Apr 19,2006 8:18am - niccolai ""] What the hells the saw blade for? |

Gene Hoglan has also had some interesting things on his kit over the years, including a 60mm cannon shell and a propeller |
