I like 22's and 24's for kicks
 5.5's to 6.5's for snares
power toms or fast sizes for toms...
12's 13's 15's and 16's if I had my druthers
I let the electrics handle the bongo department if cheese dictates

I'm kinda happy with my current kit so I'll just list it Smiley

20x14 bass
14x5.5 snare
10x8, 12x8, 14x10, 16x14 toms

I usually use the 10,12 and 14 toms, but I'm thinking about adding the 16, maybe on my left.

 I now have the standard set combo

   14 x 22  bass

   10 x   12       rack
   11  x   13      toms
    16  x   16     floor

     5  x  14   brass snare


  If and when I ever get a new kit I'd go for

    18 x 22   bass

     8 x 8
    8 x 10    rack toms
    10 x 12
     12 x 14
    
      14 x 16       floor toms
       16 x 18

I prefer a 18" kick,5 1/2 X 14 Sn. Toms are 12-13-14
The definition is awesome on a 18 " kick.....if properly tuned.

A basic jazz kit..

I have other kits with various sizes for certain type projects.I usually use the above mentioned kit on 90 % of my projects.

I recently swiched to smaller toms.

Set one:
16x22 bass drum
10x12 rack tom
12x14 hanging floor tom
6.5x14 snare

Set two:
16x20 bass drum
10x12 rack tom
14x14 floor tom
5x14 snare

I also have 10" toms for both sets in case I want to play a five piece set.  Peace.

I currently play the ol standard "rock" set up with 22x16 bass, 12,13 power toms 16x16 floor and a 5.5x14 snare.

What I would like someday- undecided on the 22 or 20x18 bass (haven't played enough of the 20's)
 Ilike the power toms but would prefer either 8,10,12,14, with 16 floor or 12,13,14,15 with 16 floor.  I believe the first set up with the 8-16 would be more versatile but I just love those deep tones.  Definatly rack mounted.   As for the snare I'd like to keep a 5.5 x14 but then play either a 6.5 or 7 x14 (if going with the deep toms) or a good piccolo (uncertain of the sizes but would tune it for a nice high twangy sound- leave the "crack" for the larger snare).
