*With Pics now!!!!*
Hi guys!
Man, after playing my PDP CX Series Blue Onyx Maple kit for 5 years I was ready to maybe get another kit. I've been playing with my band and we are going to be playing some gigs so I wanted to get a better kit for practices and studio work but have my PDP kit ready when we play the gigs. I found a kit on a forum here in Iceland for an unbelievable price in my mind.
I bought a discontinued Pearl Prestige Session Select "Wine Red" Glossy Laqcuer Finish. It has a maple outer and inner ply and in the middle is mahogany. I think it sounds much better than the PDP CS series, a much fatter and deeper sound and I'm really loving it!
I took some crappy pictures with my iPhone but I don't want to ruin it so I'll take a couple of pics with a better camera and flash and post them tomorrow!
Also, if you wanna know the deal I got it's this:
Pearl Prestige Session Select:
10x8"
12x8"
14x12"
16x13"
20x18" (I really love 20" size, I wanted something a little more compact and punchier.)
13x5" Omar Hakim Sig. Snare (older version with gold hardware, great snare!)
6x18" and 6x21" Pearl Quarter Toms (I've wanted a pair of these for ages, I am a huge Portnoy fan).
And Finally a Pearl Eliminator Double Kicker. All for the equivalent of 600$!
I am a happy man! Thanks for reading and stay tuned for pictures!
