What kinda kit you own?

I have an electrical (don't live in a house). I just bought Roland's TD-30k, it's the sweetest thing ever. That bounce is like hmmmmmmm

Same, I have an electric kit at home to keep the noise levels down. When I get the chance I much prefer to use an acoustic kit though, so much nicer.
I have a roland TDR 808 i believe, pretty solid kit and lots of presets built in.

Acoustic Ludwig that I bought at a yard sale. 5 piece maple. Two crashes, hi-hats, and a ride, all Sabian. I don't play as much as I used to, but it's still fun to drum along to some tracks now and then.

Gretsch Catalina birch in the garage and an Alesis DM8 inside. I got the electric for 375. Hi hat controller wasn't reading 16th notes but I fixed it some how. Sometimes the toms can't pick up perfect if I'm playing too fast but I can still hear the hits. Unfortunately not that quite but much more quite than the other.

I still need to get a couple new crashes. Bought both kits this winter, also bought a new ride this fall then a new pedal this winter.

I still need a few new stands as well but I'm getting there. Considering the POS beater that I was still playing going into the winter I'm not doing bad.

Glad to actually be playing the drumset again. For years I pretty much only played handrums and would play the kit once in a great while if I was at a friends house and people wanted to play tunes.

Also glad to finally have some decent equipment to play. Makes thing so much better.
