Nope, recently I've been playing alot on other people's kits. HAHAHAHA! And I've been concentrating a lot on guitar gear this year, not drum gear.
What's your budget mate? Its hard for us to recommend anything if we don't know your "limited budget".
I can agree with what you guys have said, and I know what you mean when you say that people drumming for 2 years are already so much better than you, but I don't think buying a kit is that important. I read that one local drummer of a band, doesn't have his own kit at home, but just practices a lot with his snare pad and kick pad.

And either way, I know a couple drummers (not personally) who only started drumming, or started taking it seriously in their 20s, and they are pretty good. One of them is endorsed by Meinl HAHAHAHA!
5p3ak, why don't you start the new thread?

Hello people I'm a self-thought drummer and recently been thinking on getting some recording gears. Mics and multi-track recorder probably. My budget is around RM2k. Can anyone recommend and guide me a lil bit. Thanks in advance!

Fellow drummers, I'm letting go one of my cymbal - Sabian Vault Artisan 18" Crash for sales, including cymbal bag and original cert when purchase. Also I may be putting up another Sabian Artisan Light Ride 20" for sales (also with cymbal bag and cert). Great chance for those who want to own a piece of high end Sabian cymbals. Interested party may PM me

Reason being that I owned 3 Artisan cymbals (another one is 22" medium ride), and they sound too alike to each others, letting go one or two to fund some other brighter sounding cymbals.

Meanwhile to all, happy drumming!
