I only have a Pearl Export ELX 5 piece and an old 10 piece double bass Rogers kit that is not in very good shape (its not even set up) right now. I did have a 5 piece Pearl MMX a couple years back that was really nice, but had to sell.
Wish list? I havent really thought about, but i'll be buying another kit in a couple years. This would probably do.
Yamaha Absolute Maple

It's the current incarnation of the Danelectro Coral Sitar, designed by Vinnie Bell, whose sound you're familiar with in 60s songs like Cry Like A Baby and Hooked On A Feeling. Jerry Jones makes the reissue Coral Sitar today.
I've posted the original and current versions below.

I'm so jealous :)
I've never played one before - but the ricky tone is lovely! You can really get that tinney punchy sound from it.
I'm having to do with a £10 Encore at the moment ..as my Fender Squire P is getting fixed.
Hopefully going to move up to a P Bass in the near future ..but the pennies need to be saved.
