Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I think this kit will be the last one i'll ever need!!
Sound
I looked at every E-kit on the market and I have found Yamaha to be the best at any price! The sound is great, just plug it in and play. I use this kit for church and no longer do I have to hold back! Thier are so many features, that I will never use, but if you wanted it is never ending. I have started using this kit for playing out, and it is so great to just plug it into the P.A. pick a kit and jamb! The soud out of this kit is better than you would get out of any acoustic kit, without having high end mik's. The only thing that would make this kit better is, internal wireing, and it is kinda hard to transport, but well worth the effort!!
Quality
It's a Yamaha- No need to say more
