A guitar player friend of mine got these for his kids for christmas and asked me to come buy and tune them up and check them out to see if he got a good deal. I have been a drummer for for over 25 years and owned several kits from top of the line to junk, accoustic and electronic alike. Now to get to the point it just took a little proper tuning and a blanket in the kick drum, also i added some remo rings that i brought from home (they cost under $10) to the snare and toms and the kit sounded way better. there really isn't any big need to go drop $50-150 bucks on new heads, just play the stock heads untill they wareout and replace with nice coated heads or whatever your'e preference is. My friend paid $500 and a little change for a brand new set that came with all the light duty hardware, i.e. stands, pedals,throne and beginner zildjian zbt 13" high hats, 14" crash and 18" crash/ride (he did have to buy 1 extra cymbal stand). We played for a few hours and the drums stayed in tune, and after we where done i re-set up the kit for his young children to play,i found it to be very adjustable for small children(5ish in age to adults). Over all in my opinion the review title says it all,and for the cheap price of the shell kit you can save money, buy nice cymbals and have a decent sounding kit !! the following star ratings are based on what you get for the price and my experience with ludwigs.
