MGR/Janitor man « Pacific MX Series »
Published on 05/23/05 at 15:00I purchased this set at Guitar Center in Scottsdale Arizona for $640 even. I originally went in to check out acoustic guitars but since I am a drummer I had to look in the drum section. They had this kit set up and after playing it, I fell in love.
The first thing I love about this kit is the tone that it creates. Of course the stock heads are cheap, but they don't sound that bad on the kit. I went about a week until I put on some evans hydraulics and it made a huge difference. If you love that fat tom sound, hydraulics with this kit will be a match made in heaven. The finish is awesome too. It is an emerald green to black fade satin finish. I thought these kits were ugly when I saw them on the web. But believe me, pictures do not do this kit justice. Check them out if you have a chance.
Nothing except the satin finish. I hear they are pretty easy to scratch but my kit has done pretty well with the little bangs here and there. No scratches yet.
Seems to be pretty durable and well made. My only complaint is when I was changing my heads I found that the floor tom was missing some washers.
Great kit for the money. You can't beat an all maple kit for under $1000. Even with hardware you can get them under that price. Pacific has really made it possible for the working man to have some DW quality.
