I really like the sound of these drums, bright, clear and lively, they seem great for little jazz gigs

[@scottapthorpe6172]

I own one of the first series models. These are great little kits.

[@ArgonautDrums]

Surprised how good these sound 🤘

[@Ian_P]

Thank you 😁👍

[@stephanerichard6267]

I have one and it does the job for pub gigs.

[@prestonferguson9474]

My go to Gigging Kit . I take this thing everywhere

[@ThruAWiderLens]

7:28 Yes, IMO the rims (and heads) are where so many of these kits come up short. I replaced the rims on my Sonor Bop and it made all the difference in the world.

[@WxkR]

To what rims/hoops do you switch?

[@ThruAWiderLens]

@@WxkR I think I got heavier rims from Gibralter.

[@WxkR]

@@ThruAWiderLens I also got some from them. I changed from 1.6 mm (the ones packed by Sonor) to 2.3 mm (supposedly the “professional” thickness) but did not notice a major change in my drums (AQ2 bop, which sounds great anyways. I just changed them out of curiosity). I was thinking about trying 3 mm hoops or die cast but the investment might not pay off (they are way more expensive). Do you remember what thickness you got?

[@ThruAWiderLens]

@@WxkR I got the 3mm power hoops from Gibraltar which I like very much. I thought the die cast hoops--aside from being expensive--would be too heavy.

👏👏👏👏

[@mUznikiKolymy]

Perfect for grindcore in my house. Perhaps I'll buy one for myself!

[@jmm8229]

Thanks fella, need one for smaller venues/pubs & much prefer acoustic kit to electric kit so this seems the right choice... yes, the h'ware is a value addition. Can i just say, your jazz playing you demoed, is just exquisite 👌.

[@waynesmith9990]

Mine doesnt have the cymbal mount on the bass drum ☹ Must have upgraded it in last 2 years.

[@jesseherscher1281]

Is that ride arm adjustable if I wanted it lower or closer to the floor tom?

[@boristomakic5995]

What did you put in the kick?

[@rippindrummer666]

Does the floor tom have 6 or 8 lugs

[@okeydokey9089]

Looks like 6

[@thepluggy1]

Pretty nice, the snare ain't that great though, but would do the job.

[@demonicsweaters]

Dude, that thing sounds insanely fat!
