Hey everyone,
Newbie from the Pacific Northwest. I've been a guitarist all my life but bashing some drums just seems like a good time too.
Due to some indecision on my part, I just missed out on a complete Nitro Mesh Kit that was selling for $50 locally. Stinging from my stupidity, I kept looking and then found an ad asking $350 for a mostly complete Crimson Kit. It had all 5 pads, the rack, brain, and hi hat/cymbals. What seemed missing was the hi hat foot pedal and the kick pedal.
After some eBay searching, I decided that I'd still be getting a good deal even if I had to order a few items to complete the kit. I rolled the dice and went for it. When I picked it up, I learned it was also missing the snake cable, power supply, and snare stand. Argh. Oh well. I currently have a lot of pieces on order but I got the most critical piece today- the power supply. The module powers up and was able to test each drum piece individually so everything looks good so far. I definitely have a few kit questions to come but I'm pretty excited as well!
Steve
