If you can afford up to $1500, have a look into brand name kits, not the Billy Hyde stuff.

Id personally be going for either a Tama Swingstar, Mapex VX lacquer or Yamaha Stage Custom Nouveau for around $1200

You could go down the road of the Mapex M, which is arguably the best value for money kit around today, but dont expect much change from $1500.

The yamaha stage custom are killer kits. They have top notch hardware, and they have a warm sound that belies thier price.

I have heard a couple folks gig out professionally with the SC kits, and they sound great.
