Published on 05/19/11 at 06:36 (This content has been automatically translated from French)For how long have you been using it?
- I played with for 5 years, I bartered. It belonged to a Big Band. My SwingStar is 1987, she resists again and again for years.
Did you try many other models before getting this one?
- Not at all, this is my first instrument, even if I did not do before its acquisition of comparative, I am very satisfied with this instrument.
What thing do you like most/least about it?
- After changing the skins (which were already home) and a little spring cleaning, this drumkit has a sound very round, pleasant.
drums toms are deep (12 * 13-13 * 14-16 * 16) but the bass drum is quite thin (22 * 16), which is not a big flaw. Over time the mechanical...…

What thing do you like most/least about it?
- After changing the skins (which were already home) and a little spring cleaning, this drumkit has a sound very round, pleasant.
drums toms are deep (12 * 13-13 * 14-16 * 16) but the bass drum is quite thin (22 * 16), which is not a big flaw. Over time the mechanical wear out, become soft. The drums will remain stable.
For what it is the snare drum (14 * 6.5) is not terrible, the tone became stiff and suffer from mechanical age.
Then the natural wear just get involved with small "bugnes" due to its easy transportation and use.
What is your opinion about the value for the price?
Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...
For the price, I know that the drumkit (new - 1987) had cost in 3000-4000 .- CHF, a high price for a quality drumkit. this instrument well worth it, he resists the test of time and keeps all his credibility!
As in my case, this instrument is perfect for a beginner demanding. These batteries are excellent opportunities to become a very attractive price, even derisory. The quality / price is very good.
I would do this acquisition without much hesitation
