Feature:
I had to buy all hardware and cymbals. I spent $1,160 for my red sparkle fade beauties, and they are worth every penny. I went all out with an Iron Cobra double bass pedal and hi-hat stands, Tama Roadpro hardware, and Paiste Signatures. I spend $3,190.00 when I was done, but my babies are well worth it.

Quality:
They are Tamas, and that is all I need to say.

Value:
You get what you pay for, and you pay for what you get. Expensive? Yes, but worth every cent.

Desirability:
The red sparkle fade is beautiful. It is a sparkly red on top that leads into a sparkly black on the bottom. They are just gorgeous. I also like the blue galaxy fade, but prefer red to blue.

Sound:
The tone is an open, warm, dark growl. The bass drum growls. The floor tom growls. I have an Iron Cobra double bass pedal, and that makes all the difference. I am in love with these drums.

Ease of Use:
All you have to do is tap these beauties for sound. The bass drum is amazing. As far as Paiste cymbals, you can blow on them and get sound.

Overall:
Simply the best.

Value:
I sat behind other mfg's sets for more money....this one blew them away with the sound quality.

Desirability:
Everyone who's seen the set marvels at how good looking it is.

Sound:
The sound quality is amazing...I have drummer friends who sat behind my set and raved about the quality of the sound.

Overall:
I originally looked for Yamahas or Pearls. After sitting behind both of those (which were nice), I sat behind a Tama set. It didn't take long to realize that the Tama's were for me. I'd have to say that I'd get Tama's again.
