Snare Drums

 

All my snare drums are Mapex Black Panther drums, each one serving a different purpose by having different woods and combinations, sizes, heads, snare wires, tensions and tunings.  With this selection of snares, I have been able to cover every scenario that has come my way so far.

Cymbals

 

I have been playing Zildjian cymbals for 15 years and never deviated from them. Even though brands have become popular and trendy, I still feel each Zildjian cymbal is completely unique with tons of personality. This cymbal collection is the result of many years of diligent planning and searching, as some of these cymbals have been discontinued for years, some I have hunted down to all four corners of the globe, and some just spoke to me, and therefor, I had to have them. Each one of these cymbals means a lot to me, and I feel these are the particular best versions of each one on the market that I have heard to date, and this collection is growing. Click the PDF for a full list.
