Written on: 05/01/2011

I have 20+ years drumming, played all sorts of kits, top of the line to complete junk. This kit straight out of the box surprised me to no end. No problems tuning or holding tune. The styles/settings this kit can play well, is unbelievable. Price is undervalued.Con,reggae tone just not there (read more)

It is nearly impossible to get a good... (read more)
