Product Description

New Forum "Ready-Set-Go"
The Forum, the best-quality entry-level drum set in the world, is now the best value, too. The 5-piece Forum receives a host of extras including cymbals, throne, and a pair of drumsticks. With all the essentials included, the Forum is ready to play and truly lives up to its nickname, Ready-Set-Go!

The Forum features 100% Mahogany shells made in the same molds using the same Heat Compression Process as Pearl's professional series drums. All Forum shells feature Pearl's exclusive scarf joint (gapless seam) construction heretofore available only on professional level Pearl lacquered drums. Gapless construction improves the strength of the shells and allows the drums to vibrate uniformly, unimpeded by air pockets, providing warmth and richness found only in more expensive drums. For 2000, the snare drum has been upgraded from steel to Mahogany. The new 5.5 in. x 14 in. Mahogany snare drum provides superior sonic performance and value.

The hardware has also been upgraded. The all-new S-70W snare stand, C-70W cymbal stand, and H-70W hi-hat stand feature sturdy, double-braced legs and outstanding Pearl quality! The matching P-70 pedal features a strap drive for smooth and fleet action. The bonus D-70W throne features double-braced legs and infinitely adjustable height settings with stop-lock memory. A pair of great-sounding 14 in. hi-hat cymbals and 18 in. crash/ride cymbal are included. Last but not least, a pair of Vic Firth 5A drumsticks are also included.

Features
Low-mass lugs for optimum tonality and resonance.

Low-mass tom mounting brackets for maximum sound optimization.

Heavy-duty SP-70 spurs for stability and key style tension rods for precise tuning on bass drums.

Three section height adjustment on C70W cymbal stands and smooth direct pull action on H70W hi-hat stands. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Pearl products.

4.5 out of 5 (1149 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
"An excellent drumset!"
Sound: The sound is not so good off the bat, but i recently purchased evans black hydraoulic heads and evans g1's for the bottom heads. I tuned them up, and man! The drums really sing at low and midranges. I would prefer the pearl sound over any set Feature: I like the shells, lugs, and the finish is beautiful (Red Wine). The only thing I don't like is the mounts. The export iss mounts would have been nice. Overall, very good Quality: The drumset is very well made, except I had a lug nut rust once, but it was no bid deal. Very good finish and hardware. Value: Very good value for the complete package Manufacturer Support: I have never used the support because this set is so reliable!! The Wow Factor: Its not a DW, common now!!! Overall: good intermediate or begginners set. would recommend any day!
Style of Music: All music suits me, except rap

"Awesome looks, okay quality, bad sound, but its still a Pearl"
Sound: I expected better from Pearl, the snare was terrible. After two days of playing the snare head broke.(i wasnt playing hard)After changing the head to a thicker remo emperor, it sounded really bad. I had to go out and purchase some moon gel to dampen it. If your a jazzish drummer this snare sucks if you roll. I also had to change the high tom's skin to a remo pinstripe because it cracked. Otherwise the Bass, and the other toms are not bad. Feature: The snare switch is dumb, when you need to put the snare off, you need to really work at it to have it go down all the way. The cymbals were pretty bad. Nothing special about the set. Ease of Use: It was pretty easy to use considering i know how to set it up. I had no confusion at all. Quite easy... Quality: The drums are really sturdy, i tried to break my sticks. no pro held up like a rock. The snare is terrible sound wise, qualities a so so. The toms aren't bad. The bass pedal was pretty crappy as the part where you connect the beater in, loosens often and makes a clicking noise. Cymbal stands are really good i found them to be really sturdy as well. The hi-hat on the other hand wasn't it was pretty bad, when i would play the hi-hat would radomly drop down because the knob would loosen over palying. Value: Considering it came with cymbals its not bad for a Pearl drumset its really just all in the name "Pearl" Manufacturer Support: When i broke the snare head, the guy was so rude and mean. He was like " stop bothering my people!!" like really mean....total asshole. The Wow Factor: Looked really sharp! I bought the black carbon, which is black and kind of green checkers. Looked HOT!! Overall: Its a alright beginners set, but you could be a lot more satisfied with a TAMA or a Pearl Export. Im not over it, it plays alot better after you change the heads. I bought Sabian cymbals which was alot better. If you change the snare drum it would be a heck of a lot better of a set.
Style of Music: Rock, Pop, Alternative

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!
