Why couldn't you have made a minimalist-type kit with what you had?
...and rather not have drums sitting around that I don't play.
You’d be hard pressed to beat this at this price.Sizes would be 22-26” virgin bass
13” rack tom
16” floor tom
Prefer a laquer finish or similar...no wrap
No real preference on wood or material.
Even considering vintage and re-finish them.
That's exactly what I did three years ago. I bought the 13/16/24 and added the 10 in tom. I think the Pearl Decade maple is an extremely good bang for the buck. Here's a video I made of the initial 13/16/24 kit with UT heads. Sounds way better with better heads-I've tried Vintage Ambassadors and Clear Emperors and both sound great. The shallow kick is punchy but tons of tone-as the toms full of tone. Right now it's stacked in my drum room with my lil Safari set up to play. I really like the bass drum-it's light as a feather. Buy some multiclamps to attach toms to stands (you can also use 13 in tom in snare stand (I mounted mine)-remember to buy an extra arm for 10 in tom-I had an old one. It comes with arm for 13 in. The snare is a Pearl Steel Sensitone in black lacquer. This is a crappy Zoom video/audio camOrder placed for Pearl Decade maple in Kobalt blue fade. Configuration is 24/16/13 and I order a 10” just because.
Now the wait begins.
Will post pics when here.
Good deal and that is one pretty blue - if mounting, I would recommend to get the TH-1030 Gyro Lock series tom arms, they are sweet.Order placed for Pearl Decade maple in Kobalt blue fade. Configuration is 24/16/13 and I order a 10” just because.
