Been feeling a little nostalgic this week, having crossed the 10-years-in-business threshold recently.  So for today’s good times, here’s a shot of my first kit I bought myself back in the day.  I believe they originated in the factory that eventually became Pearl.  Japanese imports with Slingerland knock-off hardware, and a very faded Red Glass Glitter finish.  12″x8″, 16″x16″, 20″X14″, and a 14″x5.5″ snare.  Found them in a classified ad from a pawn shop around 15 years ago, and to this day they still get a little stick time.
