    Ok, I'm not a drummer but my drummer's Ludwig kit sounds good. Does that help?

    (ok guess not that's like a drummer telling a guitarist that his guitarist's fender sounds good so he should buy a fender)

    i'm saving up for a dw. those kits are amazing. currently i'm playing a 5-piece pearl. i have 6 sabian cymbals - 2 crash, 1 ride, 1 splash, 1 china and a hi-hat. my pearl double bass drum pedal isn't working anymore and i'm pissed about that since it put me back about $200.

    i love going to guitar center and just rocking out on the drums...i feel bad for the guys who work there!
