What's your latest purchase?

Found a good deal on a 20” Paiste Masters Dark Crisp ride on reverb . I had a 22” version a couple years ago that I ended up trading in another deal . I liked the 22” but thought the wash built up a tad quickly . The 20” is more polite and should work better for me . Paiste has done a really good job with the Masters line . I also own a 24” Masters Deep Groove ride ( The JR Robinson ride) and it is so versatile . I can see why JR used it so much .

I came really close to buying one of those Meridian kits, in that same color, about 9 years ago. I bought a Gretsch Catalina Maple instead. What a mistake that was. I wish I had bought the Meridian. Oh well, water under the bridge. I love that finish!

The Meridians are fantastic kits. Sold this one today to a lad who was going to buy a Gretsch but liked these more :)
 
Paiste 900 series, just ordered a 22" Heavy Ride and a 18" Crash. Mainly for practice use with one of my bands, so I don't have to travel with my 2002's all the time. Hopefully I will be satisfied with them, seems like good cymbals for the price from what I've heard so far :).
 
Ordered the 13" rack tom for my Stage Custom Birch kit so I can mix and match from a selection of 8-10-12-13-14-16 inch toms depending on the gig. Planning to try 12-13-16 for a while to see how that works out.

Also ordered a 17" Paiste 2002 Crash for similar mix and match situations. That gives me 16-17-18-19-20 inch crashes to choose from and either a 20 or 24" Ride.

cant go wrong with an ICON rack, wont rotate on you, slip on you or budge. and everything will be in the same position time after time! :)

Love the rack!
Right now, I am looking for solutions to set up my Pearl kit when it comes in, it is rather large so I may end up racking.
Can all four corner posts mount cymbal holders? If so that is very nice feature!

Yes, they can :) I am only going to use the front two though :)
