"The Best!!!"

Feature:
Awesome. Maybe if it came with a seperate crash and a ride instead of a crash/ride it would've been better.

Quality:
Very nice. It has a good finish and it is a very beautiful set.

Value:
Oh yeah!!! This is the bomb!

Desirability:
It's a beauty.

Sound:
It sounds great. You might have to buy those plastic rings to put on the toms because they sounded great and all, it's just they needed the extra boost.

Support:
Um my parents talked to em but they said they were real helpful and all.

Overall:
The only other product I would buy is the next series. The Pearl Export Series. The next step up. But this great for now.

"AWESOME"

Feature:
I really just got it "stock" or without any specila stuff to go with it, but what I do have is just amazing, i would not want anything else(unless that means more fun stuff to bang on).

Quality:
I got it used, and the sound, durability, and overall performance is wonderful. I am only 14, and hearing many drumsets being played, this is deffinitely at the top.

Desirability:
I had my cousin over to look at it, he has also seen many sets in person and on tv and stuff, so that deffinitly meant that i made a good buy.

Sound:
I am a beginner, and this is the first set I have ever owned, i got it off of EBay, ordered some parts, put it together, and I was all set to rock. When i did the first bass/hi hat/snare beat, I was almost blown away at how good it sounded.

Support:
The overall stability could be improved a little, but that is what adjustable things are for, right, wrong. I thought that everyting would stay balanced somewhat by itself, uh uh.

Overall:
I LIKE EVERYTHING, but hey, nothing's perfect.

"BRILLIANT KIT . A MUST HAVE"

Feature:
i think thre best feature was the hardware , its not pro but does its job well , its very stable and reliable.

Quality:
the 100% mahogany shells and the way they are constructed like Pro kits make it solid and reliable .

Value:
for the quality of this kit i think the price is great !

Desirability:
its looks the part and sounds it too ! the cymbals need upgrading to meet the same standard as the kit.

Sound:
the seemless gap makes the vibration and sound much more full and the mahogany sheels give the toms a warm sound rather than slappy .

Overall:
i think i will keep this kit for years , it has a good sound and is sutible for beginers or intermedite .

"The best beginner kit!"

Feature:
The hardware that came with the kit is great-very sturdy and reliable. The cymbals and drum throne are also very nive additions, even through the cymbal sound doesn't compare to Sabian/Zildjians. But, the are useful for a beginner or hobbyist.

Quality:
The drums/hardware will last forever as long as you don't beat them to death, and they are very sturdy(equipment failure is not a problem).

Value:
Worth the money, and when you sell it you may be able to get 300$ for it.

Desirability:
There are better kits out there, but maybe not for the money.

Sound:
This product sounds great for a beginner kit, and is useful in a variety of music styles-(heavy rock to jazz). However, the heads that come with the kit deteriorate in sound quality very quickly, and the snare and toms are dominated by nasty overtones.

Support:
Easy to reach, but the attempted upgrades took a while to receive.

Overall:
The kit has lasted me for almost 2 years, but as my drumming has advanced, my standards for drum sounds have also elevated. I will seek a kit of higher quality for my next purchase. It helps familiarize a new kit player with the mechanics of a drumset.
