For the drummer on the move, the Pearl Rhythm Traveler is lightweight yet sturdy. It also comes with muffle heads and silent cymbals for quiet practice.

If Bond, James Bond were a drummer, the Pearl Rhythm Traveler 5-piece portable drum kit is the set that Q would present to him at the mission briefing. The four open-bottom toms and kick all stack together into a pile so compact you can fit it into a single bass drum bag, making one-handed portage of an entire shell-set possible. What's more, this kit ships with muffle heads so you can rehearse silently. Imagine: a professional Pearl drum kit that you can play on stage, in studio, and at all times of the day -- and that you can carry all at once without any help.

A Perfectly Portable, Professional Kit

Because what's the point of portability unless the set is one you'd be proud to show up with?

And switching from silent back to a live kit is as simple as changing drumheads and cymbals.

Love the set; the cymbals it comes with are the only downside.
Sound
The toms sound great for the price and size. The included cymbals, however, are very tinny and clangy sounding. You'll have to replace the cymbals soon if you play often. But the toms are awesome.
Features
The toms and the hardware are great for the price and size. It is nice that cymbals come with the kit, but they are very low quality. I've had the kit for only a few months, and I am already in the process of replacing the cymbals. They sound pretty bad. And my top hi-hat cymbal is now unplayable because it keeps getting knocked in and inverted when I hit it!
Ease of Use
This kit is very easy to use and set up.
Quality
Every part of this set is well-made and durable, apart from the cymbals. You can play them pretty hard, and they will take it. The hardware is light but sturdy.
Value
Good price for a quality beginner/traveler kit.
Manufacturer Support
No support needed so far.
The Wow Factor
It is a sharp looking kit. Black Pearl drums are just classic! Throw some Zildjians on this guy and bam!
