Previous kit
:
Pearl Export
(the chrome one) circa 90-91. I had the set
from late 91-97. It wasn't a bad kit, but it wasn't anything to write home about. Remo Pinstripes on top and I think
Ambassadors on the bottoms of the toms (12", 13", 16"). I eventually
put the ISS (Integrated Shell Suspension) system on the toms.
The Bass (22")had a Pinstripe Batter
and a Stock Front.
The snare had an Evans Heavy Duty Dry
Batter and Evans Dry Bottom.
The Cymbals on this kit were Meinls:
17"and 18"Velvet crashes, 20" Ride, and 14" hats. It also had 10 and
8" AA Sabian Splashes.
Hardware: Pearl Rack (old black version), DW 5000 double bass
pedals, DW remote hi-hat, generic cowbell
