Shared on Tue, 03/20/2007 - 11:18When I was about 13, my parents helped me buy a drumset...now I paid for half of it with a paper route. Looking back it was a good lesson for me on working hard for something...but at the time it was annoying...since then I've had 2 drumsets...and the one I have now, I have done a lot of upgrades on. I don't have room for it at the moment...so it either goes into storage or I sell it.
It's certainly not a new set...it's a Pearl set, I think from the early 70's. Great drumset...smaller toms for a great jazz sound...however has a great performance quality as well. This here set and I have been through many concerts together.
I was mentioning to someone about my two options...he offered $300 for them. At first I said, "Well sure"...but now I'm think...there's no way in HELL I'm gonna sell my baby for that much...it deserves more. Plus...what if I wanted to play with a group impromptu...if I sold it I wouldn't be able to do that. UGH...
So...I think I've decided not to sell it...I just need to put it in it's cases, and store it somewhere...close to me. Just in case. Speaking of cases...I ordered one for my Acoustic Bass...it's an odd size...not a full neck...so I had to special order it from Fender. Hope it comes in soon...I am sure it's getting scratched up...and that's no good.
