Published on 09/12/04 at 15:00The kit was bought for me, so I could have a practice kit to play on with my band. They bought the kit for $399 new. I only used it for practice.
There nothing I really liked about the kit. It is a basic piece of crap kit. I replaced all the heads, and that only helped out a bit. Actually the only thing I did like was the snare (which I still use). It was a basic 6x14 steel snare. I use it to the day with my new kit as a second snare.
Basically this kit is for a beginner and thats it. Don't buy this kit if you expect to play shows with it. The toms are ok if you replace the heads. But the Kick drum has no volume or strength. The hardware that comes with this kit is cheap.
The construction and quality are very minimal. I think the drums are pieces of junk. But I didn't pay for them.
If you are looking for a kit to play out with, keep looking. Buy a tama swingstar or pearl forum. Those kits are in the same price range, plus you get better hardware. I play a tama rockstar custom in fusion sizes and it does not even compare to them, even though they aren't all that great.
