arrived yesterday, set it up for a lengthy practice. out of the box is LOOKS stunning.new hardware, wood grain(red transparent) and the birch wood. the stock heads for everything will have some life on them. i was least excited about the snare after reading and watching about it but its LOUD with no too much substain. the toms are deep and open sounding but still articulate. i debated and checked out all the 4 piece kits of this price range and i feel i chose the best one. my band is loving it. for such a small kit its louder than most standard sized kits. i was using a tama all maple starclassic prior and i can say ill be using this kit for years to come.
if you need a solid, good looking, GREAT sounding kit, this is going to be your best bet within the up to 1200 range. if you want, just upgrade to some die-cast hardware and eventually switch out the drum heads. it comes with great drum heads out of the box though.
