Drummers list your setup

[metalchurch]

I saw a thread in the General discussion, with some Youtube links, and in those links, I saw some guys using a buttload of cymbals, and it got me wondering about your setups....

While I don't really know all that much about drums,
I thought that you guys would like to share your setups, etc...

I've never saw this for drummers on here, I apologize if it was done already.
I figured that Hawk,Rob,Kevin, and the rest of you guys would tear this up.

This is the set up Bonsell brought when he filled in for us the last time ...

[metalchurch]

That's a sweet set up for sure man!
Awesome post, that's exactly what I was hoping for!

WOW!!

Estimated cost???

[ToonaRockGuy]

Estimated cost...wow...never really thought about it...

I've probably over the years gotten about (retail) somewhere between $3000-$4000 tied up in this thing, including cymbals that I used to have that I don't use anymore due to my endorsement. The cymbal endorsement helps, believe me!
