This was my first drumset, retired after 14 years of faithful service.  She's seen quite a few upgrades and expansions, and these pictures show her final setup.  In 2005, she was replaced by a fusion set of Pearl Masters shells.  I do not deserve the Masters - that is for certain.  Nonetheless, I am a proud Masters owner.  Unfortunately, that kit is currently cased and packed into a corner, so I'm unable to post any pictures.  If you'd like to see some pics of that immaculate set (black hardware on natural birch finish), then obviously, the easiest way would be to sign me on as the drummer of a touring band and snap some pics at the first show.
