...with Alchemy cymbals to boot.

If I was after a professional haul, I'd be tempted by this lot. It seems a lot of kit for the money. Am I wrong?

Bargain with all those cymbals, the snare (which could be £3/400 worth second hand) and the hardware. I'd pay that!

The internal mics are fitted with MAY's AVC no drill adapters and cables that run out the airholes. So no drum butchery :)

Just as a starter: the bass and tom shells alone would have set you back over £3K.

ok well i've had a look and the finish is v nice, didn't test the mics. The hardware has some scratches and chrome coming off the snare stand, doesn't matter to me and the bass tom mount which is more bothersome; Quite a bit of peeling. Some marks and bits of rust on the hoops etc.
Its all been used, so usage marks unsurprisingly. Its damn heavy and the hardware is nice, hand adjustable, very German.
Its not going for any different to 2300 as far as i can gather.
So apart from the fact that it would have been expensive when new is that fair accounting for depreciation? yes i know it's a matter of opinion just curious.
Sounds solid and nice :)
I'm sorely tempted
