Question to fellow drummers...

About getting some new stuff. So I figured I should get some stuff for my set, and im having some trouble deciding on what to get.

There's either a 14" China Cymbal Made by Wuhan and a Pulse Piccolo Snare

OR

An 18" China by Wuhan, and maybe a new crash cymbal by Paiste or a few new drumheads.

So, which do you think I should get?

what type of music do you play?-Sniper99-

Planning on mainly Rock, Hard Rock, Metal, Whatever...

@anterocide: Yeah, but I'm not gonna be spending over that $60 mark. I dont got that much moneyz :(

Ok yeah, if you're going to be going more for the rock/metal playing get the cymbals instead of the piccolo. They'll mesh better with the sound you're after.

Go for the snare.....but what setup do you have?aussie_rocks

So far, its a Basic Wally-World quality 5-Piece Set, + Crash, Hi-Hats and a Ride Cymbal that actually sounds somewhat good.

I have mixed feelings with the snare it came with. I have to keep a 500-page novel and a REM-O on the batter head so it wont buzz like a chain saw. This snare that im looking into buying has gotten nothing but very good reviews.

I'd go for the china if you're playing metal. You'd be surprised at how great you can make a simple snare sound. I asume you know the procedure for tuning drums, just make sure the resonant head is tuned lower than the batter head. I did this when I played rock and metal and it sounded great, real snappy.

Get the china and some nice heads for your snare.
