  SKB Roto-X 4-Piece Fusion Drum Case Set - "Expensive, but if you can afford it, go for it!" - DubiousDubs

  

  This case set is the real deal. I have had a few various cases in my life as a drummer, different sets over the years. I had old stuff, made of cardboard composite feeling material to house my old ludwig set probably original from 1960’s. This stuff stunk like mold and was falling apart. I needed a new case set to lug around this nice set to...

  Remo MUFF’L Sound Control - "Cool idea, works well! Cheap and reusable!" - DubiousDubs

  

  In the studio my DW set often suffers from afterglow ringing sound. In a live setting this is fine, as I feel it adds a certain reverb sound and sounds great. However, when in the studio it is something I wish to avoid at all costs. In my attempt to silence after ring, I came across the remo muff ring control set. Changing heads, dampening, c...

  Vater Stick and Finger Tape - "Nice product that helps solve hand issues without the use of duct tape" - DubiousDubs

  There is a use for these, I just have not found the perfect fit yet. For the first 3 years of my playing the drums, I suffered from the occasional blister. I assumed this was due to my fingers not being thick skinned enough, and due to improper technique. I was right about the second part, but this problem did not go away. Specifically, right...

  Sound Percussion Multi Rods Brush Sticks - "a must for any drummer who plays small acoustic venues or dinner bars" - DubiousDubs

  

  These sticks are very good at what they are meant to do. They are great at quieting one’s drum sound while not slowing down the attack. They have a different sound then solid sticks and are soft enough to play with a band to do acoustic stuff, or simple quiet rhythmic tones to aid in different either south-American style percussion, or Africa...

  Orange County Drum & Percussion 7x13 Natural Ash Mapl... - "Amazing sound, amazing addition to a nice set" - DubiousDubs

  

  I bought one of these snares back in 2006 in an attempt to replace an old wooden gretch I had been using non-stop for 12 years. I could never give it up, and this changed me. I now use this snare as my main snare when touring and recording, and have retired my 40+ year old gretch snare. OCDP claims their insides of the snare are hand-...

  Pearl Export Series - "Great price Great set" - DubiousDubs

  

  A beginner should be in the market for something durable, easy to transport, light, and seem somewhat nice looking. This kit is that and more. When I first started playing drums I was using one of these kits, and frankly, it did its job well. I can say that spending money on replacement heads is a must and should be done from the facto...

  Simmons SD9K - "Typical mediocre set, but useful in adding to a rig" - DubiousDubs

  

  Electronic drumsets used to be considered a fad. Nothing more, but I disagree. To me, they fill a void in a good player’s arsinal, one which cannot be filled without accepting and embrasing the electronic drum trigger and furthermore, the electronic drumset. That is not to say that all these sets are the same, of the same caliber, of ...

  Vic Firth American Classic 7A - "The lightness of balsa, the power of lightning" - DubiousDubs

  

  These drum sticks are great for jazz music. I also use them to rock out to 1980s rock reggae, like the police, they help me get a quick hi-hat hit for emulating stewart copeland, all the way to gene krupa fills. I find that 7A sticks suit me well save for one single flaw: they break on me like toothpicks. This might be a result of my hard-hittin...

  Paiste 2002 Ride 20" - "perfect for DW kit" - yoTrakkz

  

  Our drummer just bought this cymbal, and I am very impressed with it. While it isn't mine, I do practice with my drummer 2-3 times a week in addition to gigs, so at this point I'm really familiar with it, especially since it's being used by a far better drummer than myself. It is 20" and isn't too thick like a lot of new ride cymbals tend to be...

  Zildjian K Custom Dark Hi-Hats 14" - "I can't begin to explain how nice these sound, but I'll try. " - VishNuRoXoUt

  

  I've played a ton of cymbals over many years especially a lot of hi hat pairs. These are the best ones I've played hands down. It's hard to explain how great these hi hats are without just being able to show you. I have used them for a lot of R&B, Hip Hop and Jazz and they pretty much own any other set of hi hats I have used in those departments...
