Question Posted Wednesday October 22 2003, 10:59 pm

So, I'm a drummer, and I need some new equipment. Should I go for a new hi-hat stand, crash, ride, or double bass petal? The hi-hat stand is probably the most needed, the ride would round out the sound, the crash would make me even louder than I already am, and the double bass would just r0x0rz. So, if you were in my fuzzy blue slippers, which should I (or you I guess) get?

Gotta be the Hi-hat stand - presumably you've got the hat itself, and along with the snare and base, this is the most integral part of the kit. After that, the priority depends on what kind of music you play, your budget, and how your kit looks now. If you already have a crash, get a ride, if you already have a ride, get a Crash (I'm assuming you have one or the other here). If you have botgh, screw extra cymbals and go the DB, especially if you play rock or metal. Can't be beat.

Get what you need the most, simple logic would be you don't want to get too loud people will complain, you can wait to round out your sound, its probably not the most necessary thing ever. Double bass would be cool, but if you’re a male or live with a male, bass kills sperm so watch out there ;) I'm not a big drummer but I would think it makes sense to go with what is most needed.

I'd quit drumming and get a ukulele. They're freaking awesome instruments.

Prioritize. Hi-hat first, ride next, then double base, then crash. Why Dbass before crash? Because if you don't rock it, who wants to hear it?
