{{youtube|Qx6Uv1BYdvw|Jimmy Chamberlin talking through his set-up at rehearsals for the ''[[Shiny and Oh So Bright Tour]]''.}}On the Smashing Pumpkins album ''[[Zeitgeist]]'' and subsequent tour, Chamberlin used a Yamaha Maple Custom Absolute kit with 60° bearing edges, rather than the standard 45°. His kit consisted of two snares (5x12 and the main snare, his 5.5x14 "Signature" model – Yamaha SD-2455JC), six toms (12x14, 8x10, 9x13, and an 8x8 above his floor toms which are 16x16 and 16x18), a 16x22 bass drum. | {{youtube|Qx6Uv1BYdvw|Jimmy Chamberlin talking through his set-up at rehearsals for the ''[[Shiny and Oh So Bright Tour]]''.|float=right}}On the Smashing Pumpkins album ''[[Zeitgeist]]'' and subsequent tour, Chamberlin used a Yamaha Maple Custom Absolute kit with 60° bearing edges, rather than the standard 45°.

Around 2000, as seen in "[[The Everlasting Gaze]]" video, he switched from Sabian to Zildjian cymbals. His setup included four crash cymbals (a 15" thin and three Zildjian A customs – 15", 18", and 19"), an 8" splash cymbal, 15" New Beat hi-hats, a 20" China High, a 22" K Constantinople medium ride, and a 22" riveted swish knocker. He occasionally used a triangle on his kit, mounted above the hi hats. Chamberlin's drumheads are Remo coated Ambassador on snare-side, clear Emperors on tom batters with clear Ambassadors underneath, with a Powerstoke 3 on the bass drum batter and Vic Firth 5B sticks. His signature snare drum is popular with other drummers – Chad Smith has been known to use it as a second snare drum.<ref name="mdrummer" /> | Around 2000, as seen in "[[The Everlasting Gaze]]" video, he switched from Sabian to Zildjian cymbals.
