Simply the best.
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.
Features
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.
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.
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.
The Wow Factor
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.

"Looking for quality sound and looks? Don't look any farther!!"
This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful.
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.
Sound
The sound quality is amazing...I have drummer friends who sat behind my set and raved about the quality of the sound.
Value
I sat behind other mfg's sets for more money....this one blew them away with the sound quality.
The Wow Factor
Everyone who's seen the set marvels at how good looking it is.
