Post by: drummerboy25 on June 14, 2007, 10:04:13 AM: WOW! a set called T.J. Percussion. it was an all-white kit, standard set-up. the mounted toms were so far apart and the cymbals didn't have a name, although they might have been Camber Germany cymbals.

Title: Re: What was the very first drum set you owned?
Post by: BigFoot_BigThumb on June 16, 2007, 03:46:07 PM: I owned a balck marble 3-piece U.S. Mercury kit with a bent, crusty old crash. I jacked it from my uncle when I was 9. I kept it until I bought my kit. I traded it like a fool for $150 not knowing it was worth quite a bit more. About a month later I saw my old drums sitting in the front window of the store all redone with a price tag of about $750 on them. I should have kept those drums.
