This is my drumset which I don’t have a lot of time to play anymore. Here’s how it lays out (I know the photo is bad; my digital camera doesn’t like the poor fluorescent lighting in my basement):

I’d like to thank the cool guys at Fred Pierce’s Drum Studio Shop (sorry, no real web site yet) for always cutting me a deal. Fred’s shop is at 9537 Midland in St. Louis, MO. I am going to assume for purposes of this argument that they are still there and when I was actively buying drum stuff they were my favorite drum shop. Drum Headquarters was also ok and some of the stuff came from there.
