I bought this kit for my Christian rock band and it far exceeded my epectations. We play everything from soft rock to hardcore and it sounds amazing through all of it. It's going to need new heads or some major rigging to the stock heads...and the stock cymbals are a joke...but with my evans onyx heads and my zyldjian zbt, zyldgian a custom, and sabian B8 cymbals, it sounds like a professional kit...def buy this for the price

I got this set like, 3 months ago, and its held up pretty nicely. The instructions that came with the set were absolutely terrible. I just fiddled around with it until I got it assembled. On a lighter note, the drums sound really good. The hole in the bass drum is really handy for stuffing it with blankets and whatnot(it needs the muffling). The snare is pretty spiffy for the type of music I play, but it might not be for you. Whatever. Its still a pretty sweet buy.

This set is great for starters. This is a shell set, but when you get everything you'll be ready to rock. I would recommend this set to anyone looking for a great beginners set.

Hey, This is a great set!! I just got it a few days ago and set it up. The Tom mounts are a little difficult to put together (especially because the instructions are horrible), but I enjoy it. DO BE AWARE that this IS ONLY a SHELL pack, that means that the cymbals, stands, and extra hardware do not come with it. Not even the Snare stand. I have not yet gotten new heads yet, but the heads I do have are ehh...ok, I will not say they are great, but they are not completely useless. Overall, I like this set, its pretty with the white shells and black hardware that does come with it.

It is great for the price. I suggest you buy it.

I got this kit for my birthday about a year ago, and I am not impressed at all. The toms are horrible. Even after tuning and muffleing in every way possible, the bass drum sounds like someon hitting a piece of wood. and the snare drum sucks! I muffled it, dampened it, and every thing and it is horrible. I recommend saving up for a pearl, tama, or truth drumset. do not waste your time on this one.
