As the title says, I'm trying to upgrade my kit. I'm more than likely going to sell a guitar amp of mine and the old kit to fund the new one.
I'm looking at about $800-$900 to spend on shells and I would like to know what are some nice model kits to be on the lookout for? I'm probably going to go the birch route, and would like a 12", 14", 16" setup with 24" kick. I'll definitely being buying used. I'm on Craigslist too much to not go used, lol.
So, what should I be looking for? There was a Mapex Meridian birch kit for sale not too far from me for $500, and despite me saying I wanted to go with birch, there's also a 1979 Ludwig USA rocker kit. I don't know much about them, but I guess someone does. They're 6 ply maple/poplar shells with the olive/blue rounded badge. He only wants $900 for them, but also comes with some stands and cymbals.
Thanks for the help!
