Howdy Carlmex,
This is from the Ventures website:
Leon doesn't say much about what size or weight cymbals he uses, but you might find some of the info interesting.
Q. What equipment do you use to play in concert and in the recording studio?
A. The setup I have at home is all Drum Workshop drums and pedals with Zildjian cymbals. My snare drum was custom made for my dad (the late Mel Taylor) to his specs by a Japanese company called Canopus. It's a six ply maple 14 by 6 1/2 inch snare. I use Promark 5B wood tip drumsticks; that was what my dad used. I have 4 rack toms -- 8,10,12 and 13 inches and 2 floor toms -- 14 and 16 inches -- and a 20 inch bass drum. That's pretty much what I use on the road also except I use a 22 inch bass drum for a little more deeper tone. I use a heavy duty Pearl rack and hardware for my toms and cymbals. The snare stand is DW.
