Review by samIII on 31.5.2005




bought from the nottingham drum centre in england for ?400 with a pair of 14"hats and an 18" crash/ride in december 03

 
 
  Features  
 
pretty basic stuff but thats cool because therenulls not much fiddling about when setting up
 
 
 
  Playability  
 
for the money its excellent. my one doesnt have floaty toms so they dont wobble whn you whack them. i dont know if its just because its what im used to but it seems the easiest kit to play that i have ever hit.
 
 
 
  Quality  
 
it is what you pay for. real wood ply shells not mush wood with solid chrome plated hardware.
 
 
 
  Durability  
 
once set up it doesnt slip or move or fall apart. Im mostly a thrash metal drummer so my one gets a fair bashing and it still isnt slightly damaged.
 
 
 
  Overall  
 
my dad really chose the kit for me becuase it is a sort of beginers kit but it is easily taken on to be used by more experienced players. perfect if you are learning and far better than a CB kit

I bought this drumset at ellis drum shop in st paul minnesota in december of 2003 and it is a pretty good set. It is exceptional for the price (around 450 with upgraded hardware and tom mounts, etc.).

 
 
  Features  
 
This drumset doesnt have many flaws, but one of them is pretty critical. I noticed that no matter what heads i used (evans g2, remo coated ambassador, etc.) it didnnullt tune very well, and when it did, i fell out of tune pretty quickly.
 
 
 
  Playability  
 
This is a very playable drumset. Thats all i have to say
 
 
 
  Quality  
 
for the money this is an incredible set
 
 
 
  Durability  
 
Very durable. Only one dent, and that was becase of a stupid guitar player (but thats nothing new) tipped his amp onto it.
 
 
 
  Overall  
 
I love it, and i hope to someday give it to my children or grandchildren.
