I'm going to give a little tour of the drumkits that I own, love, and use.

'08 Pearl VBX in 230 Clear Birch; THE GOLDEN EMPIRE

This is the studio/Chemical Valley set.  It is probably the most beautiful kit I've ever owned (and I've owned many!!) and is the 'Flagship' on my Federation. ("Live long and prosper")

Drums (From Left to Right)

16" x 18" Floor Tom

9" x 12" Mounted Tom

18" x 22" Bass Drum   (Foot Tom - HA HA!!)

8" x 10" Mounted Tom

5.5" x 14" Senitone Snare Drum

7" x 8" Mounted Tom

16" x 16" Floor Tom

8" and 6" Remo Roto Toms

 

Cymbals: (From left to right)

18" A Swish (no rivets)
17" Wuhan China
14" K Custom Session Hi-hats
7 1/2" High Speed Steel Saw Blade
10" Wuhan Splash
17" A Thin Crash
6" A Splash
20" ZXT Titanium Medium Ride
16" K Custom Session Crash
8" A Custom Splash
12" Wuhan China
13" K Hi-hats (inverted)
16" A Thin Crash
20" ZHT Flat Ride
15" Wuhan China

 

I immediately upgraded to the Optimounts (as opposed to the I.S.S. mounts) and Gyrolock tom arms for the mounted toms.  I added memory locks to the floor tom legs and upgraded some of the rack clamps (PC-50's) to the PCX-100's and 200's.  I felt that I needed a little more of a variety with regards to my crash sounds, so I changed the 16" A Thin Crash to a 17" A Custom Rezo Crash.  Wow, what a great crash cymbal!! 

And, probably the most coolest addition to this kit is the secondary BASS DRUM!!!! I haven't actually had a true double bass set up in about 10 years, so this thrills me to no end!!  Here's are pics of it...

When I sit at this thing, I am one with the universe!! Comment away, my friends!
