Okay. Here's my Dad, sitting at his Slingerland kit in classic white pearl. He packed up playing these on gigs last year (he's 79) and now they're set up in my spare room. He hasn't got room at home to leave them permanently set up, so this way I get to play them whenever I like, and he gets to play them whenever he pops in to say hi - which is a lot more often than they'd get set up if he still had them at home. WIN all round.

I don't have any actual pics of my kit, but when I made it (got Keller shells and random lugs and hoops of amdrumparts.com, then stained it), I copied the finish of a kit that was made a smaller custom builder IJ Drums. The guy who makes them was nice enough to detail not only the process of dying the kit, but also how he got the colour (mixture of 2 different water-based wood dyes).

Here's the kit I ripped off. Mine have different lugs and they aren't offset, but the finish and color of hardware is accurate.

I had an old Tama Rockstar Custom kit that sounded nice. My cymbals were garbage though, but it worked for a jam room kit. I mostly used a Pearl Piccolo snare though.
