So that is a Zickos kit. I've heard of them but have'nt actually ever seen one... that is not a typical zickos kit however.. I've never actually seen a factory 18 bass drum, although I have met someone online who says they have one. the small sizes are incredibly rare. almost 3 years of looking on ebay and I've only ever seen one 14x14, the one you see on my kit. and only a few 8x12 toms. I made the bass from a cracked floor tom. I sawed the cracked end off and moved the lugs to make a 13x18 bass. I turned the leg mounts into spur mounts and the l-arm mount. it was quite the experience cutting down and drilling the acrylic shell. the typical 70's zickos kit looked more like this one, except with 2 toms. sizes: 18x22, 10x14, 18x18.  I had this bigger rock kit first, but I recently sold it. |

Here is the Zickos website for anyone that's interested. Apparently they started making them again in the late 90's. http://www.zickosdrums.com/main.htmrobyn |

Not my main kit, but straight from the Mr. A school of making a cheap set sound great. Set on e-bay with shipping $ 170.00 (brand new) New Heads all around $ 65.00 New snare wires $ 15.00 Resold all hardware that came with set on e-bay. <$110.00> Net cost $ 140.00 Now this doesn't include the value of my cymbals and stands But the kit sounds great and for what I have into it I don't bother with cases, and really don't worry about letting others play it  |

I thought I would share what amounts to my current setup. It's used mainly for messing around, but I would have no qualms about using it with others for lower-volume applications. If you'll pardon the horrendous-quality pics from my webcam:   A sound sample is forthcoming in the "Let's Hear You Play!" thread. |

Luvmyleedy, it's a 20X16 Bass. It's got quite a nice punchy sound. The whole thing is the best kit I've ever played on.
