    Superb drums! I have the Premier Signia Topaz clear finish over the maple wood with a 24" bass drum, 16" floor tom and 14" rack tom set up.

    The drums are extremely well built. It's certainly one of the best sounding kits I've played, if not the best. Bought mine second hand, piece by piece and managed to find a non varnished premier signia maple snare drum a few months after collecting the other drums.

    Buying a Signia second hand represents UNBELIEVABLE value for money and should hold its value for many years to come i.e. they don't make 'em like this anymore.

    Only downside is tracking down kits for sale, as most people that own them, wont sell them. I was lucky and bought several drums from two ex-premier endorsees, who happened to have some spare drums!

    These drums are also very powerful in sound. I have not yet recorded with them and still at the time, experimenting with different heads. The bass drum sounds incredible, as do the Toms. If I'm being honest, I haven't quite managed to get the sound out of the snare drum that I was hoping for, having previously had a 5.5 inch Pearl Masters MMX snare drum, but I'm working on it!!! I suspect its just my tuning capability (always had trouble with snare drums).

    Without duobt Premier Signia is still one of the Best kits Money can buy. I have used DW Collectors series Ludwig etc, I have a Marquis Signia in Silver Sparkle . 4 years of age now, and still like new. I use a 22" & 18" bass. 14" hanging tom and 16" Floor with legs . Just superb. I have 8 kits the only one that comes close is My Genista,

    They shout top quality! Gorgeous to look at! First class finish....Top of the line hardware...Durable as can be. Mine look as good as the day I purchased them. Amazing sound....way better than anything else on the market when i purchased them in 1999 (I have the Signia Marquis Series). Bass drums sound like cannons.

    The Premier Signia has an amazing sound and solid construction. It's warm, focused and punchy. It has a narrow tuning range but this can also be a good point as it makes the kit very easy to tune. The best kit i have ever owned.

    I bought my set of Premier Signia drums second-hand. It's the rare 75th Anniversary set with maple hoops on all drums, including the snare drum. After playing many brands of drums for nearly 40 years, this is the drumset I will own all my remaining days.These drums are expensive and hard to find. My impression is drummers who own Signias don't part with them easily. If you are looking for world class drums, try the Premier Signia.

    I was shopping for a high end drum kit. I was looking at ALL makes and models. I played them all. I finally got down to the Premier Signia's and DW. The Premier's sounded better!! Hands down. I have not been disappointed. I ordered a brand new kit in Sapphire Blue in 1998. I still own and play these drums!! THE best sounding drums I have ever played. Toms seem to sing with the slightly "undersized" shells. The Bass drum has a warm full body. These drums record very well!
