Current config:

Zildjian 15" Kerope hihats

Zildjian 18" Kerope crash/ride

Zildjian 10" K Custom Dark splash

Zildjian 22" Kerope crash/ride

love that orange kit, every time I see a photo of it

Cheers fellas.

I'm getting a bit of kit from these guys: http://www.ukdrumdeals.co.uk

They are a good 20% cheaper than everywhere else.

I guess they are grey importing from the US to do it, but I'v been assured that warranty isn't an issue.

You know that percussive acoustic finger style guitar? It's basically a instrument solely dedicated to doing the percussive bit. They lurk around in the background but actually if you look carefully you might notice that quite a lot of famous guitarists play with drummers.

I know a dude who used two 22" rides as hi-hats.

I'm surprised you can get a warranty on something that you hit with sticks as soon as you take it out of the box.

Did this "revelation" start with a phrase like...Dude....my hats just aren't cutting through the mix........"?

octatonic

Lol.
