 Moon played a four , then a five @-@ piece drum kit during his early career . His 1965 set consisted of Ludwig drums and Zildjian cymbals . By 1966 , feeling limited by this setup and inspired by Ginger Baker 's double bass drum , he switched to a larger Premier kit . This setup did not have a hi @-@ hat , since Moon used crash and ride cymbals instead . He remained a loyal customer of Premier .
