MENTIONED IN THIS PODCAST:

Here are some suggestions to get you started. Keep in mind that there are MANY drum companies who offer great products at an affordable price, so do a bit of research and see what deals you can find.

My best money-saving suggestion is to search for PACKS of gear, rather than buying each piece separately as this will save you a lot of money. I’d also suggest searching eBay as you can usually find incredible deals if you’re on a tight budget.
