What musical gear do you own?

[FerretallicA]

Fucking hell... if it's not too rude lol how much did all that gear cost roughly?

 

[Celestial-Todd]

haha not rude at all. I've bought it over time though....

The M-Birch cost me $1400 (super deal through Drum Mania in Penrith), the snare cost me $400 (again, super deal haha).... the cymbals I bought about 3 years ago for $2,500 (original retail was $3500).

The pedals cost me $1500

So roughly this kit cost me around 6 grand

 

[Celestial-Todd]

I still plan on adding a couple of things to it as well... I want another china and a bell. Plus I'll eventually be buying my own mic gear

now thats the way to alleviate serious gas!

Nice kit Todd.

Gotta jam soon!

I've seen the pics of the kit and it does indeed look nice, but I'm not overly impressed by drums untill I've heard them for myself. Just the fact that there are so many variables in a drum's tone that I no longer get impressed by pictures.
I once worked with a drummer who had an awsome rock technique, he was tight as hell and had a decent kit. Unfortunately, he tuned it all a tad too high so it sounded retarded when he played or recorded with a band.

Same could be said for guitars... I look at all the photos posted and go "wow... it's got... nice.... frets"

Jonno, what Ibanez 7 string do you have? If it's easily cleanable and in great nick I'd be willing to buy it from you very soon (depending on the model).

+1 buying interest here too if you end up wanting to offload it.

You're like my mate Dave with fishing gear.

 

[FerretallicA]

What can I say except that I have a soft spot for Ibanez 7's

 

[petrucci_dude]

I need a 7 too for some rhythm stuff I'm playing on people's HSC performances soon. I can always borrow one if I don't end up buying Jonno's.

 

[FerretallicA]

You could borrow mine except fuck you

 

[petrucci_dude]

Fuck me? Fuck you!

I will respect that opinion because I agree with it, to a point. I still feel that my original statement has more weight to it when it comes to drums.
It might just be because drums are an accoustic instrument, so there seems to be less things to "blame" when they don't sound right haha.
