Hey guys , my first post after finally being able to sign up for this forum!



This is my dream kit which i am currently not far from having.
I just love the simplicity and symmetry of everything (that is the hi-hat directly in front of the snare.)

Toms and Bass Drum:
Mapex Orion with cosmic cloud burst finish

Snare:
Yamaha Jimmy Chamberlin Signature Snare

Cymbals (From left to right):
Meinl 17" Byzance Dark Crash Cymbal
Meinl 16" Soundcaster Fusion Medium Crash Cymbal
Meinl 8" Byzance Splash Cymbal (sitting on top of 16" Crash but with a spacer in between)
Meinl 14" Byzance Extra Dry Medium Hi Hat Cymbals
Meinl 20" Byzance Sand Ride Cymbal
Meinl 18" Byzance Jazz Medium Thin Crash Cymbal
Meinl 12"/14" Generation X Trash Hat Cymbals stack.
 
Bringin' it back!

Here it is, except I have a jam block and a tambourine mounted on the stand with the 14" crash. Oh yeah, and an old cowbell from the 60's on the hi-hat rod. I have pictures in my profile too. The only things I would add would be a thin crash to my left behind the hats and a splash in some as yet undetermined location.
