"Great drums, great price"

Feature:
The starcast mounting system is awesome! The cymbal stand that come with are very nice too.

Quality:
Very well made! Great for having on the road, very sturdy. I don't think they'll ever break.

Value:
You get your moneys worth...and then some. Very good price on an awesome set that can be used forever.

Desirability:
I bought it, so I must've wanted so pretty bad! I bought the rock chrome set and they look awesome!

Sound:
These drums put out very good sound. The bass drum has a lot of punch and the snare is very snappy.

Support:
I haven't had to deal with them at all, but I'm guessing they are great.

Overall:
I'm guessing that I will have these drums for a very long time. The sound is perfect for me and the features are great. Add some Zildjian cymbals and your ready to go!

"Tama....pearl is just jealous"

Feature:
Tama accessories are durable...but very simple. If you're looking for that awesome Iron Cobra double kick pedal...save up, the kit stock pedal will get you through no problem however.

Quality:
Shells are excellent and finish will last a lifetime. Mounting systems are durable and don't detract from resonation.

Value:
I bought my kit used for 400, and with cymbals and all my other stuff i only spent 678. After buying a splash and another crash and one more stand...my total came to just about 900....for a kit at this point worth well over 1400

Desirability:
Want it? I got it baby

Sound:
Good sound, often a little pingy making tuning often a must. Throw on some good heads (get rid of the stock ones) and you're set. Aquariun superkicks on the bass drum, evans genera dry on the snare, and evans hydraulics on the toms. Put this kit next to a pearl or a dw and you can't tell the difference.
