 Got My New Kit
Hey guys I got my new kit just now..
Its a Mapex M Series bought 2nd hand
comprising of
10" x 8" Rack Tom
12" x 9" Rack Tom
13" x 10" Rack Tom
14" x 14" Floor Tom
16" x 16" Floor Tom
22" x 17.5" Kick Drum
All for £450 (roughly jus over $900)
All rack toms are in a black finish and the Kick has a Transparent Black Finish
Will post up pictures once i get my new snare drum delivered  
I feel that this setup will be awesome and very comfortable for all applications, especially metal
This, I realised was from playing a friend's Joey Jordison Setup.
Once I get some pics up, share your views on the setup

Enjoy Bro! I will be getting another kit soon. I've decided to go with Mapex. Gonna probably go with the M-Birch for that warmer recording sound. Still love my Tama's but gotta try new stuff every so often. Peace on ya!

Good stuff! How do you like the Meinl cymbals. I have a buddy that is endorsed by them. He is the drummer for Stretch Armstrong if you have heard of them. Peace on ya!
