Posted: 6/5/2006 1:53:53 PM | They don't make my kit anymore. I use a old set of ROGERS. They were the best in there time. Many Jazz greats used them. I use zildjian cymbals but I have heard some Paiste that I like as well. I use tama kick pedals when I updated my kickers. I love my pacific blue ROGERS set as well as any I have heard. I could stand to update my snare to a more unique sound with better response by adding a few lugs. As for sticks, they will vary as much as the muscle tone on a drummer. You just have to find the right fit for your music.

As for modern day kits, I like Tama and Yamaha and even Ludwig.

that and unless you are an endorsed Drummer I never liked Paiste seeing as they break way to often. and the worst kit I have ever had the nightmare of playing was a Remo PTS heads drum set, the only good part at the time was it was free.

If you do a search on google and spell Rogers without the d, you will find a lot of places that can sell used or fabricate parts for your set.

I use a Pearl kit with Evans Heads. I have a mixture of Zildjian & Paiste cymbals. | |

Posted: 8/18/2007 5:25:33 AM | I've only just begun to learn drums, but I've been playing guitar for close to twenty years. For my tastes, I really like the smaller Gretch maple kits. Bigger than a jazz kit but not as big as standard rock kits today. As the music gets heavier, the drums get bigger. I feel most big rock kits are too thumpy.
I'm not an expert, but opinons are like.... | |

DW is taking over the market they don't even build a kit until it is bought. And anyone who has played one knows their I best/ I play a Yamaha maple custom kit is't awsome. DW is better | |

Posted: 8/20/2007 9:16:16 AM | | I used to have a set of Pearls with sabian cymbals, a very solid kit. Now I play an old set of stewarts around late 60's early 70's with a Rodgers snare and I love the sound. I have always thought Sabians to make a good cymbal so I have stuck with them. | |

Posted: 12/1/2007 6:51:24 PM | I'd love to have a set of Sonor's , like the one Iron Maiden was using in the late 80's . Nicko was @ a clinic in Fl and said he had the big metal one they made . It was like a $1000 easy. iplaypearldrums now though
I had 2 sets of Rogers , TAMA pedals, DW5000 pedals ( I got them from one of Roxx Gang's many drummers) TAMA octabans,Zldjian Z Ride, SABIAN flat hats, rock crashes, Octapad, Alesis D4 modules, | |

Posted: 4/11/2008 5:26:07 PM | A good drummer can make ANY kit sound good.
But I bought Pearl .....a lot of 80's bands were using them,KISS did in the 70's, and they were (waaaaaaaaay back) competitively priced. | |

Posted: 4/12/2008 12:27:21 AM | Well I own 2 kits. One is a 2004 midnight blue Tama Rockstar ( I'm playing that one in my pic) before they cheapened the RS model. I also have a Pulse. Now don't flame my @$$ for what I'm about to write. I love them equally. The Pulse has the iso-toms like pearl. Also it's yellow and black, and if one puts the right heads on a cheap kit it can sound as good as a high priced one.
just my nickle.  | |
