Sup drummers  Wanna get some opinions on drumsets. I am planning to get a new drum set. Budjet around 3-4K with throne and cymbals. Been eying on the Ludwig Epic Series for quite sometime now but not so sure if Bentley have them. Also looking on the Tama Silverstar and Pearl Vision. It would be great if you guys could help me around. I don't want quite a beginner set. Would be great if can get 6pc like the Ludwig Epic.

Just called Bentley music, he is giving me Ludwig epic for rm4800 around there. The good thing about this drum is that birch and maple woods are used. Price wise should be okay I guess.

QUOTE(isaacmiranda7 @ Jan 16 2012, 06:10 PM) Yes! I'm selling my Epic  RM3.2k, I guess, with hardware and everything. no snare though. But add a hundred bucks and I'll throw in a snare. How's the condition all? Hmm price seems good. May I ask though what cymbals are you throwing in? I don't mind the snare cause I am eying on the Joey's snare

QUOTE(Jenglot @ Jan 18 2012, 11:44 PM) Imho, better get epic from Isaacmiranda7 and extra money get a better cymbals.. Nah, I want everything including the standard snare  I've tested the ZHT cymbals before and I felt that it is okay for the price which Bentley is giving a 50% off. Apart from the ZHT, I can't think of anything within the price range. Prefer Zildjian cymbals

QUOTE(5p3ak @ Jan 19 2012, 01:56 PM) Isn't 16" too BIG? I dislike HHX evo...like too "smooth"  Idk how describe, my frend got 1 at his house...  How much you selling? PM me best price. Y U NO GET Xs20?! The reason why is because the xs2 are off my budget. Besides, I am more towards a zildjian fan rather than sabian. Bentley is throwing in 50% off for zhts and that's a good deal for me IMO.

Seems like Bentley fcuked me up. Yesterday I called and confirm they said that they are offering me the ZHT pro. Just now I call and ask about some other stuff and to confirm my kit, they said they are giving me the zxt rock set.
I was like whuutt. Broke my heart man. But they said to give me the ZHT pro including the kit for a slight higher price. Dissapointed for that. But I guess even with the zxt rock set, it seems A pretty good deal.

QUOTE(isaacmiranda7 @ Feb 10 2012, 07:01 PM) Well, it depends. The least I'd go for is two overhead condensers, a kick drum mic and a snare mic. If you CAN, mic every single thing up. Regarding EQing and all, well it depends on the individual drums, but to make the DRUM sound big, always put the kick and drum mic up a bit more than what you think sounds good.  HAHAHAHA! What happened to it? Pictures? I'll post the pics on Monday. Stepped on it :/ accidentally. 18" thin crash.

QUOTE(5p3ak @ May 22 2012, 02:27 PM) Congrats!  Really like the look of your splash! How does the HyperDrive sound? What heads you're using on it? Thanks  It sounds real good, very "punchy" and responsive I would say. I am using the original heads which came with the drums. No plans to get them changed yet. QUOTE(boiboi95 @ May 22 2012, 02:52 PM) That's what am i waiting for, i heard there is also sale in June, if the sale is not sastified me enough, i'll go for year end sale... since SPM is draggin me, no point buying it now as a big distraction to me  Added on May 22, 2012, 2:53 pmawesome drum u have there!
