"Perfect For Beginners..."

This reviewer purchased this item from Same Day Music.

Sound:

Pretty much everything I expected from this kit, as someone learning to play this seemed like the obvious kit to get considering price, and it sounds great to me. My only complaint is the sound from the hi-hats, but I also think I may have set those up wrong, so that's probably why

Feature:

Comes with everything you need, the online instructional video posted on the box gets a bit confusing when it comes to the hi-hat parts, but that is more on Ludwig's end than SDM's.

Ease of Use:

Pretty easy to set up, everything comes in 2 boxes, great value

Quality:

Not exactly an expert on drums, but as a fellow beginner this kit is everything I wanted

Manufacturer Support:

Not sure if this question means Ludwig or SDM, but SDM was awesome as far as processing and shipping goes, purchased on Friday at 4:45 PM, received Tuesday at around 5 PM(but that's because my UPS man delivers to my house later than most)

Value:

Great value for a beginner, everything in 2 boxes for a low price, and it's from a very recognizable company in the drum industry

The Wow Factor:

I got it in black and it looks great, although I personally scratched it setting it up, but hey, battle scars baby

Overall:

I have a feeling I'll enjoy this set for years, the fact that I got a great set on the cheap end is made even better seeing how I've gotta start saving for college. And I doubt I'll be able to afford a new kit in college.

"A great deal for the beginning drummer"

This reviewer purchased this item from Same Day Music.

Sound:

I bought this set for my daughter. She is a fifth grader and needed to be able to practice at home. The set came to the house in the time promised. It arrived in perfect condition. She has learned to start playing the set already and I was told by her instructors that it is a great set for the beginning drummer. It will last her many years, heads excluded of course. We have been very happy with the product with the exception of the lack of directions on how to put it together. Thank goodness for instructors, because it came with no directions at all. Other tham that great product.

Feature:

It included all accessories it said it would come with but, we bought new sticks already of better quality.

Ease of Use:

Very playable once, put together. Very little adjustment needed.

Quality:

Itis great quality for the price. I would have liked maple instead of basswood but, thatis alright as long as it's cared for properly. This set will not be moved from her room so antiipate it lasting forever, except for the heads. They are already showing lots of wear and have deep dings from the sticks.

Manufacturer Support:

I have not contated the company.

"Outstanding Value"

This reviewer purchased this item from Same Day Music.

Sound:

This is a great set to use for practice or learning to play, but not necessarily for performing. My $1200 set sounds better (but not by much!)

Feature:

Has everything you need in 2 boxes.

Quality:

Everything fits together perfectly. No blemishes, dents or dings. Seems sturdy.

The Wow Factor:

A great practice set.

Overall:

I am amazed at the quality of this item in this price range. I tried out several other kits in local stores, nothing compared to this without spending at least double. The metal hardware is rock-solid and a thicker guage than I expected. The drums sound great (for the price) and the cymbals are actually quite good. It truly is a kit-in-a-box that can be assembled in about 45 minutes.
