Midtown Black Gold Sparkle : Very Useful and Good Quality Kit

The kit is very light and practical for transport and the hardware is robust and of great quality for the price. Actually everything looks and works like you would expect from a top-tier drum. Great lugs, rosettes, screw action, thick hoops and workmanship in general. Even the snare wires sound fine and offer good response. Rims are of the thinner kind, as you would expect for the budget, but nothing feels flimsy or works shabbily. You would do well to replace the tom batter heads and the snare resonant head, but on the whole the entire set sounds, sets up and looks great. And the kick drum lift is an awesome accessory, as well as the cut in the associated hoop. Absolute bargain. I also sometimes turn mine into an e-drum, with a couple of mesh heads and triggers. Ideal drum for that kind of modification. I can't recommend it enough.
