Let me put my love into you, babe

Did you feel the rock as you read that? I'll bet you did.

you can buy the first three in a cool box set with extras directly from Greg Sage. The price ain't bad either. google him...

As a drummer, I can't imagine wanting to borrow someone else's kit unless it was a dire emergency (f'rinstance. mine got stolen, burnt, etc. and absolutely had to do the gig). I've spent a lot of time getting it to where I want it and I also configure it for the the music the band is playing. As for...

Thanks - I have a cymbal or two I'd like to try this out with.

This may sound dumb but how do you machine cymbals down? Do you have any pointers - books or web page? It's a hard subject to search for since all I get are people bitching about drum machine cymbals.

I'm too proud to go ahead and buy a used user's manual (and of course mine is long gone) - I pulled it out of storage today and flipped it on and while everything lights up, it appears that the tape drive is not working. My guess is that it needs new belts. It is a TASCAM 234 cassette 4-track record...
