MGR/SaulMapex M Series Pro M
Published on 12/24/08 at 15:00well here goes about mapex
dont be fooled by shiny colours - i love my drums BUT mapex mmmm
1 the hardware is poor quality
2 the ply quality are poor uneven cheap cuts
3 the maple rings for the bass drums poor cheap ply cuts
they ll break/snap easily if your not careful
the hardware is pretty cheap and not interchangeable.
avoid anything below a saturn. - even so the lugs are still the same cheap quality as found on the m and pro m. and the maple rings too.
new - buy - gretsch catalina / or pacific these are pretty good cheap new models.
grooovy
saul.
My advice is, if you want cheap and great buy a secondhand premier - APK. rock solid ! or pearl MLX, or a 70s rogers! all...…

My advice is, if you want cheap and great buy a secondhand premier - APK. rock solid ! or pearl MLX, or a 70s rogers! all about £400 for a good one -many to be found on ebay and great sounding drums!

MGR/Brendan RiggsMapex Mapex ProM series
Published on 12/02/01 at 15:00 I purchased my kit from Drum Center, Indianapolis. I payed a little under $1000 for a 6 piece kit(w out hardware). 22" bass drum 14" snare 10, 12, 14, 16 toms.
The first thing that caught my eyes was the color. I purchased the ice blue fade. Each drum fades from blue-white. Very beatiful. The drums have great overtones while still keeping the the pinginess(is that a word?) down. The warmth is amazing(mapel shells). I really love this kit. Well worth the money. Sure a Tama Star_Classic would be a bit better. But hey, it's also about 5 times the price!
Complants, none. Great craftsmanship
The shells are MapelMahogany. The hardware, steel. Bass whoops are wooden

I put on Remo Renasance(sp?) Emperor heads on it. I have not even had the smalled screw fail on me. I would recommend these kits for anyone.
Nothing but the best for my money, and this is the best, and it's my money!

This drumkit is just gniale. For the price, it is of superior quality to all other models of this Qualibre. I will keep the 10 for the Saturn and the Orion of course.
