A great intermediate kit that has stood the test of time of 10 years and dozens of gigs and countless months on the garage floor!


Bad Points

It's a Pearl kit and you get what you pay for.


General Comments

I gigged seriously for a few years with a Pearl Export kit using a Dixon frame for toms/cymbals. Robust, strong hardware, no sign of warping. In about 10 years all I had to do was replace heads, clear up one lost internal screw on the floor tom, and (annoyingly) tighten the floor stand on the kick drum. Beyond that the entry level hardware and snare have been fine. Sure the snare was pretty average but loud enough for most pub/club venues without a mic.

You'll get better kits and I'm not saying otherwise, but the price at the time was a bargain and its repaid me several times over since then.
