I dug for most of my drums. I'll go to a record store or fair with my portable player and just go through as much vinyl as I need to til I find the sounds I'm after. I'm not adverse to sampling cd's either. Don't bother sampling mp3's in my opinion. If you're looking for clean decent drum sounds and can't be arsed to dig through tons of vinyl, I'd say check some library stuff like http://www.betamonkeymusic.com They got some really awesome drum sounds in my opinion.

I get them from wherever I can but try and stick to vinyl. Cd's once or twice and mp3's never.

Most of the pre-fab "kits" they sell have the same damn drums in it. Uselessly eq'd and hollow as a log.
