19" Vault Crash
17" Vault Crash
10" HHX Evolution Splash
20" Planet Z Ride
12" Wuhan China(cracked outta this world but still sounds decent)

Drums
22x18" bass drum
10x8", 12x9"(dont use it), 14x11", and 16" toms
12x7" Black Panther maple/cherry snare
14x5" Stock Mapex maple snare

Hardware

Mapex stock hi-hat stand
Gibraltar bass drum pedal(i have no idea of what model)
Mapex stock bass drum pedal w/three in one beater(felt, wood, and plastic)
x2 Mapex stock convertable boom to straight/straight to boom stands
M-Rage boom stand

Some things I will get in the future to add to the setup:

Thanks! Ill be postin more pics with more angles on sunday. And some actually with me on the drums. And the heads are coated ambassador over ambassador snare side for the black panther, coated emperor over stock for the mapex since I barely play it, and coated emperors over clear ambassadors for the toms, and clear emad 2 over emad resonant for the bass drum. And the finish is tobacco fade

[L.V.Drumma]

I like the kit man. I have the exact same snare on the left side of my set up for songs with a hip-hop feel. I love that snare and it's worth every penny of the $120 I paid for it!

[j_kay]

Yeahman...  Ay, L.V.Drumma and lockslie1 - how do you have your snare tuned?

[lockslie1]

I have it tuned a little bit tighter than the 14X6.5 snare as my main snare. It gives me a nice sound without sounding like a pork pie lil'squealer and works great for hip-hop stuff. I recommend a groove wedge if you are going to use it as a main snare though. I actually have an Evans ST Dry on it and it keeps a decent warm tone and doesn't get too high pitched like an over inflated basketball

[j_kay]

Cool!  Thanks!   

[L.V.Drumma]

Thanks lockslie! And yeah that snare is the truth. I love it. And j_kay I have mine tuned a little above medium for a nice mid fat sound. Its not too high like most have theirs cranked but its not too. Just right for me. With a drumdial the batter is tuned about 86 or 87 I believe. And I have the reso tuned about a 1/4 or a half turn higher than the batter.

Yeahman...
