Value For Money : Excellent
I use this drumkit for 5 years. Bought second hand from a store.

Features I like most:

- Sound!: Really good. Very versatile (the same time it is birch, it helps). A special note for the bass drum! Great sound on stage and in studio (the sound engineer has nothing to do!). The snare also sounds super great.

- The charley: This stand is great charley. I can not explain too much, but every time that other drummers have used my kit, they loved the hi-hat foot. Besides, I can no longer use others (even in the high end)

- Strength: I really strikes a very violent with a very high volume (I'm not saying it's a good or a bad thing) and get my drumkit impacts without moving a muscle. There never gave up!

Features I like least:

- The screw banding, I hurt myself sometimes. They scratch their hands ... we will say that I prefer the square-head screws, it's less dangerous!

- The clip attachment between the branch from the bass drum and two toms fasteners medium did not super confident ... I found a cheap 3 clips attached it seemed a little more convenient than the original system. After it is a matter of taste as well. As against the suspension of tom is great (very advanced for its time) The branch does not fit into the tom ... reason is not at all disturbed.

- The floor tom is unscrewed a bit faster I think but as I said I hit hard.

But be careful, all this is really nitpicking expressed after 5 years of intensive use of a drumkit that must be easily 10 or 15 years ... So inevitably there are small details. Since I found three defects microbial, it's really super super positive.

Otherwise I tried a lot of batteries of all makes and all ranges, during concerts or in stores. Although in the end I must say that I was not really marked. All brands of batteries in so-called "beginner" offering competitive rates equivalent or superior to it in OCCAZ really have no interest to me. I'm not saying it is not good, some are above average, but it is clear that more OCCAZ Sonor Sonic is a much better price / quality ratio. I found that the equivalent batteries professional or semi-pro.
So in the end a really great drumkit! If you need a kit to the studio, stage, or even just start it's perfect. Used price is ridiculous, so there is no real incentive to buy new cooking pots at the same price. Here at least you have something to go the distance. I started with this Sonic more then I did with the scene, recorded an album ... she would always have great output and had compliments from sound engineers! ^ ^ The value for money is great (if you can find one)

With the experience I would do this choice without any hesitation! Besides, I do not think changing the drumkit until you have the means to pay me one of my dreams (for a budget of at least 5000 or € 6000) so it tell you if if can fulfill my expectations!
