Hi! I also play guitar (still learning....only started in July) and am starting to learn drums. My lovely hubby got me my first set for Christmas. The kit I got is a no name kit I picked out on Ebay (Vex Pro Maple 5 piece). I haven't had it that long, and since I'm a beginner, I won't offer advice on what kit to buy. However, I have come across many online drumming resources. Here is a short list. I know alot more, but can't think of them all off-hand. www.drummergirl.comwww.drumcenterforum.comwww.drumbum.comwww.webthumper.com/drumswww.drummercafe.comwww.drummagazine.comwww.drumdogs.com/message-board-forum/www.vicfirth.com/education/studcenterdrumset.htmlwww.tigerbill.commost of those sites offer free lessons (some even have video and flash clips) and all have some great info. I have no drum instructors near me, so I have to learn on my own (luckily, though, I have a great guitar teacher near me....guess you can't have everything ;-D) I'm using a DVD from TOMMY IGOE called "GETTING STARTED ON DRUMS" and I love it so far. I plan on getting another DVD of his called "GROOVE ESSENTIALS". Hope this helps! Fran
