Well after a long hard battle with myself,i got a refreshing phone call from my friend that owns his own drum store.He told me he can get me the new Mapex Saturn Pop Fusion 22 7-piece kit with hardware for 2400.00 out the door.I finally realized i can't beat this deal so i'm going ahead with the order.Gonna go with the natural gloss color.

I know this post is old,but i wanted to thank all of you for your help in helping me decide on my new set.I've gone with a Tama 6-piece Superstar Custom Hyper-Drive in Dark Desert Burst.The shallow toms just fit my playing style better.Once again thank you all for your help..

Which does it fit better - Your sound requirements or your playing style?

Just curious...

[brotha b]

Bothe.I prefer my toms to be low and almost flat,and i can't get comfortable with the toms i have now.They are too deep for me to set them up right and be comfortable when playing.I also like the punchy sound that the Tama's shallow toms have.

You could have had your shells recut and had some sweet bearing edges to boot.  That would have been a fraction of the cost of a new set.

Well it's a Sonor 1007 which is basswood.It's an entry level kit and it's time for an upgrade.I've been thru two deployments to Iraq,a tour in South Korea and i've got another one to Afghanistan,so i felt i deserved it .

Wow! You definitely deserve it.

Ay, I didn't know that it was a basswood set - "make it do what it do".

[brotha b]

I've done with it what it can.G2 coated over G1's all the way around.Coated ambassador over hazy 300 on snare.Emad with stock reso on kick,DW 8000 pedal.
