My wife's least favorite colour is Blue so when we talk about this set with each other it's known as the "Ugly Kit."

Awesome kits here. This is my humble introduction into the Ludwig Fan Club. I'm saving for a new Black-Beauty, then onto a dream-kit ( like Legacy Classics in silver sparkle).

Great snare! There's one of those in my future.

Here's my latest addition to the Family.

6.5 Acrolite, and I changed out the P-85 for the P-86. I like it better.

This Acrolite is a really nice snare--and the price is great too!
 
The pic isn't too good, but it looks cool in person. I like it, and it was a nice surprise when the Acro (which is a "lower" line snare) showed up with it.

It's also embossed and has a lot of tones in it.

I'm not the type to say "If it's not a B/O badge or the OLD keystone it's crap".

I would have been fine if it had the Black/White badge on it like it usually has, but it's cool to have the 100th Anniversary badge.
 
Here's my set. It's obviously used for metal and hard rock. Also, say what you want about the Pitch Blacks, I love them. Oh, I'm 16 btw. Oh yea, one more thing, I have a clear resonate head for my bass drum because I have a triggered strobe light on the inside.
