Thanks guys. I agree with you all. I am not sure about the look of the ludwig, like you said erwinner, i don't really like the mini lugs either. I like the big classic ones. Green sparkle has never really done it for me either. The Pearl is maple from around I love the look of the older masters kits anyway, i don't think i will get this ludwig though.
I really don't know. Pearl are winning on the votes too. Quite different sounding drums, have you had the opportunity to try them? If you have a sound you're going for, the difference in sound might just make the decision for you.
Stanton and Me! Definitely the Pearl! Page 1 of 2 1 2 Last Jump to page:. All times are GMT Being a shell pack, there is no hardware included in this pack. That said, the tom mount which holds two toms on the bass drum is included.
The drums are well built and nicely balanced with each other in terms of tone. The bass drum in particular packs a nice punch. Gretsch make quality instruments, from drums to guitar.
Gretsch drums can be heard on many singles and albums. This is a nifty shell pack for any drummer that wants quality drums on a shoestring. Drum sizes are 10 and inch toms, inch floor tom and inch bass drum. Stage Customs are good drum sets and offer great value. That is a nice price for quality birch shells.
Of course, being a shell pack, the amount of hardware you receive is limited. You do get the tom mount for the bass drum which holds the 10 and inch toms. Really this drum set would suit a drummer who wants to experience the birch drum sound on a budget. Birch typically has more attack and high end than your average maple drum. This means the drums can cut through a mix more sharply. Of course they are not limited to this sound, and as with every drum kit, a lot of the mix can be done in post-production.
These drums are stunning to look at as they have a transparent glass appearance which means you can see right through them. Just like stained glass, they can also come in a variety of colors.
Not being porous wood has other benefits too — Keith Moon once even went so far as to fill one of his drums with water in order to house his pet goldfish. You can see his improvised aquarium here. When it comes to acrylic drum sets, there are many brands out there. These five drums consist of a inch snare, which is 5. The bass drum is a standard inch which is a nice and deep 18 inches. The three toms are 10, 12 and 16 inches in diameter. Overall this is pretty standard.
The sound from acrylic drums is typically louder than standard wooden drums such as maple or birch. They are popular for this reason. Of course their stunning look is also a factor. Acrylic drum sets are a lot of fun to play. They are loud both in volume and in looks. This type of drum set is popular among rock drummers, as the extra volume means they can easily keep up with loud guitarists and huge stacks of amplifiers.
Some would say this limits the versatility of acrylic drum sets, but if you like the sound and look, then let that be the deciding factor. Beginner drummers will most likely want to buy a drum kit with everything included. This may mean with or without cymbals. In most cases, when starting out, it is a good idea to purchase a drum set with hardware included. This means all the required stands.

While they do make wonderful sounding drum shells, their hardware has always turned me off. Being one step up from the Ludwig Accent, the Roadshow is going to give you a better sounding kit overall. Pearl offers you more than just one shell configuration with the Roadshow.
Despite my negativity with Pearl over the years, I still manage to believe that this is the best drum set for a beginning player. You get great sounding drum shells right out of the box and can really use this kit for whatever your needs may be. One thing that is going to be common with all drum sets that come with cymbals is that they are going to be bad sounding, albeit, these are the best sounding cymbals on the list thus far.
The Tama Imperialstar is one of my favorite releases from Tama. The Tama Imperialstar is perfect for beginning drummers moving from a cheaper set of drums — a beginner who has turned serious. Tama Drums is one of the largest manufacturers of drums in the industry. The last two kits on our list have significantly better hardware design , color options, and better sonic performance overall. These drums just look professional. In addition to drums, the cymbals that are included are actually from a real, reputable cymbal maker , Meinl.
Now, these cymbals are still very much entry-level , but they do sound much better than any of the prior cymbal options. I am currently debating myself buying a newer Tama Imperialstar for a touring kit. It sounds so great for such a low cost. I have always been a big fan of Tama drums and love this kit. If you have a little more money to shell out and are very serious about playing drums, this is the kit to pick.

You will have to purchase cymbals and hardware separately. Shell packs are common at the upper-end of the market when buying drums. The Catalina Birch is an excellent sounding drum kit , and while I do think the Tama Imperialstar does look nicer overall, the Catalina Birch takes the cake for its sound.
Gretsch makes excellent, quality instruments. They have made fantastic guitars and drums for many years. The image above shows a standard five-piece drum set. This kit includes a kick drum, snare drum, toms, crash cymbal, ride cymbal, hi-hat, kick pedal, and a throne. A drum set usually includes at least four drum shells , as well as metal hardware to hold said shells and cymbals.
Some drummers play drum sets that are so massive, they require many hours of setup the day of the show. This drum is usually the largest and sits on the floor with the heads perpendicular to the others.
A kick pedal is needed to play this drum from a sitting position. The kick provides the bottom end and boom of a drum set. Here is 30 minutes of that drum fill for no reason. These instruments are made from metal and provide either a loud accent when playing or provide a steady rhythm. For the purposes of this article, we will be dealing with the basics: crash cymbals, ride cymbals, and the hi-hat.
