|
|
I tried searching and could only find info on electronic kits so I signed up and am making my own thread and I hope this is the right place for it....
Basically I am somewhat decent at drums in rock band (still stuck on the last two songs in expert) and am thinking of getting a real drum set. I have the room and would like an acoustic set, but I don't want to spend a whole lot of money and so I am asking for opinions on what (if anything) to get. I don't plan on joining a band or anything like that, this is just something for my own amusement when I want to mess around without following a rock band note chart.
I found this Pulse-Pro 5 piece set with 3 cymbals (bass, snare, 3 toms, crash, ride, hi-hat) for $400 which seems to be about everything I would need for a decent beginner set for pretty cheap.

The reviews are kind of love it or hate it. It seems like most beginners love it, anyone with a shred of experience hates it. I'm thinking this is a good one for me to start out on and then if I hate it I'm only out $400.
Thoughts?
Anyone else been inspired by rock band to play real drums???
TIA,

Seems pretty solid but according to the reviews you might need to buy new heads. |

not necessarily. those who have a gift with tuning can make nearly any heads sound great. stock heads are not a problem if you are a particularly good tuner.
just cause one buys new heads does not mean they will sound good. bad tuning is bad turning
tuning skills > best heads in world |
