Questlove's Ludwig Breakbeats
I'm not overly impressed with them. They have a cheap feel to them but might be a great travel kit due to size.
10 years ago18" K Zildian, instanbul, cracked, with rivets
An 80's Zildjian rock ride 18" or so should do it. Those were really heavy and stiff, and usually cracked easier than a medium crash.... (And they s...

10 years agoWhat was the best sounding drum set you ever had?
I still own them! The blue Yamahas. And they've gotten better with age.... I just can't get enough of them (obviously)

10 years agoWhat are late 70's-early 80's 22" A's going for ON AVERAGE?
Price seems fair to me. Heavier cymbals have a higher pitch with all other variables being equal.
