    We bought the cheapest drum kit we could find from our dealers and using only the original parts we set it up to see how much £300 could get you.
    Should we give away the drum kit or do some crazy experiments with it?

      yeah basicly any cheap drum kit can so great if you get good heads on it and tune in well. the only thing that holds them back is the cymbals

      I had a different drum kit but with the same cymbals, and boi that ride/crash not just bad sound, but also hard to play with, like u cant hit that fast cuz it just doesnt vibrate its like hitting solid metal

      Actually I don't think the cymbal sounds that bad, its just maybe the screwed it too tight on the stand that made it sound muffled.

  • @Beefnhammer
    @Beefnhammer 4 роки тому +37

    When buying a complete kit on a budget with sound quality being the most important factor, at least 75% of your money should go to the cymbals and snare drum. Pretty much any toms and bass drums can sound decent with good heads and proper tuning, but a cheap snare is a different story. If you can afford it, it's worth ditching the snare a cheap kit comes with right away and getting a used mid range one from a reputable brand, same with cymbals.

      Buy a used drum set for $250-$350 rather then new. Buy some cheap decent cymbals. You have a good drumset for under $500.

    At least they don't ring. The biggest pain in the butt with inexpensive (cheap) drum kits is trying to get rid of the ringing. I bought a Japanese GPS kit for $150.00, and the drums rang like crazy. I went through seven kinds of hell just to make the kit playable.

    Don't destroy it...it's a fairly decent kit...give it away.
