Snare: Pearl
Tenor: Pearl
Bass: Pearl
Pit: Ludwig


I haven't had too much experience with anything else.

Snare- Pearl
Tenors- Yamaha
Basses- Pearl or Yamaha

Snare - Yamaha
Tenors - Yamaha (you actually can tell the difference between two 6" spocks)
Bass - Dynasty

Snares-Dynasty

Tenors-Dynasty

Basses-Dynasty

Front Ensemble-Dynasty

Cymbals-Dynasty..(Just Kidding) Sabian

Snare- Yamaha
Tenor- Dynasty (because of the 8" spock) and Yamaha because their really good quality
Bass- Yamaha
Cymbals- I never play anything but Zildjian

I don't really care much for the dynasty snares, but that's just me. I've played on pearl, yamaha, and dynasty drums, and I just think that yamaha makes a better drum. Dynasty makes good tenors though, that's obvious.

Snares -- Yamaha sFz
Tenors -- Yamaha Field corp
Basses -- Yamaha Field corp
Cymbals -- Zildjian

Personally, I Think Yamaha has some of the best drumline equipment out there. Our school got some new Yamaha stuff this year. The Sfz snares are freakin awasome, the quints we got that i play look, feel and sound great to, the basses are perfect for tonal too.

Snare-Yamaha
Tenors-Dynasty BIG TIME!!!
Bass-Pearl (Thanks to my listening to Phantom Reg. bass line at camp)

Snare - Dynasty; I'm partial to the Shorty drums with top snare units. Nice articulation, yet still warm in a sense.

Tenors - Yamaha; Again, nice articulation. They sound a lot different than other brands and seem to have a little more emphasis on higher pithces, granted the birch shells.

Basses - Pearl; Deep, deep, deep, and articulate sounding when tuned in manners I like. The extra two inches added to the depths of the thirty and thirty-two inch drums really seems to make a difference.

Cymbals: The versatility and catalogue drive me to pick Sabian. They material is slightly thicker than Zildjians and is less likely to invert during normal playing, and the quality is unmatched.

Pit: Adams; their mallet instruments are some of the toughest I've seen, and sound warm and lush at the same time.
