It's a mid-70's Slingerland Buddy Rich model (not part of the TreeHouse kit). It looks like a metal shell because of the chrome outer wrap but it's actually a maple shell. Yes, it is at a medium tuning.

Thanks, Francesco. The traditional instrumentation for an organ trio is organ, guitar, and drums. There generally is not a bassist. The bass register is played by the organist with the left hand and/or feet.

ok, thanks for your kind replay. That was my opinion. Anyway you have a very pleasant sound. Congratulations for your performance@@EdEDrummer

Thanks for your kind words, Wayne. There's no doubt that Zildjian makes fine cymbals, and their K and K Custom lines are certainly a good choice for jazz. But the reality is that each individual cymbal has it's own unique character. Two cymbals that are the exact same make & model can have radically different sounds, so you really need to audition the cymbals in-person and choose the ones you like best. While I do like Zildjian, I play many different brands including Bosphorus, Istanbul, Crescent, Paiste, and others. My point is: pick what sounds good to you. Your cymbals are a part of your own unique sound, so have fun creating the "Wayne Sound."

Thanks for the kind words, Michael. If you compare TreeHouse to other custom drum builders, I actually think their prices are very good. But yes, if you compare them to mass-produced kits from a major label, they are going to cost more. Each of their kits is handmade, one at a time, and you just can't do that on the cheap. Bottom line: they aren't cheap but they are a good value IMHO. Thanks again for your comments!
