On the on the actual snare side you've got the code generic, I think it is, it's a 14 by 3

Mapex Mars Driftwood

 The bass drum in particular really is quite thunderous. I love the fact that although these are Remo's UT heads, there's a lot of response there. A very, very clear tone and clean tone which makes for musical playing. You can, thanks to the Sonic Clear heads, you can tune the pitch to exactly where you want it, where it's going to work with the particular piece of music that you're playing or the style of music that you're playing

 This is the Mars Kit and this has been iDrum Magazine. We'll see you next time. Thank you.

 Let's hear it. Right, as we hoped from Mapex, everything that we've had over the past few issues has been of such a high standard and the Mars kit is absolutely no exception. Really enjoyed the way this kit plays. It's very adaptable to the configuration, to the positioning

 The black plated chrome hardware on the HP 6005 pack goes really well obviously. Really fits in with the theme and it's all stable, double-braced and rugged and will get you from A to B without any problems whatsoever. Fantastic. Thank you very much Mapex

Pearl, the world's largest drum manufacturer, proudly presents new Roadshow Series. 

 THE RHYTHM IS IN YOU! The right gear is essential for setting it free. No toys or hand-me-downs; a new, complete drum set package with everything you need to start your rhythmic journey to the big time. 

 Pearl Roadshow drums are built with 9 ply 7mm Poplar shells and 1.2mm triple flanged hoops. Comes with heads and double braced hardware. Each set includes maple drumsticks and professional stick bag. 

 Here are some things to look for when buying your first drum kit; see for yourself how Roadshow stacks up: 

 Hardware 

 Cymbal, hi-hat, and snare drum stands should start with a strong and well-balanced tripod base. Double-braced legs and interlocking tilter adjustments are also vital for keeping all parts of the kit in place under the pressure of performance. ROADSHOW’s included hardware package is second-to-none in its class. All stands are dual-reinforced, height and angle adjustable, and feature double-braced legs to withstand the pounding onslaught of the heavy-hitting drummer. 

 Snare Drum 

 The Snare Drum is the voice of the drum set and captures everything from the loudest accents to the softest “ghost” notes. With a matching shell and finish, the ROADSHOW snare is full of attack and power, yet sensitive enough for drumming at any volume. 

 Bass Drum 

 The bass drum is the tonal heartbeat of the drum set and should not only set the low-end pulse for the groove, but be a foundation for the rest of the complete drum set-up. The ROADSHOW kick drum features an extended tension/tuning range for low, chest-thumping bass frequencies, and includes locking, slip-free feet (or ‘spurs’), and secure mounting for toms and accessories. 

 Cymbals 

 ROADSHOW’s included cymbal set features a 16” brass crash/ ride and a set of 14” brass/hybrid hats. Perfect for accents and timekeeping until an upgraded multi-cymbal set-up is acquired.

But I also very much like the pearl roadshow junior. Looking for something quality (or at least something close to it) in this price range. Don't care how loud it is so long as it's in that price range and it is durable and quality made.

 I finally ended up having to by a whole new high hat unit.  Bottom line, if not for these two stripped parts I would have given 4 stars as the drums do sound nice with the exception of the cymbals which are kind of cheap.

For the money this is a nice drum kit

 The snare drum sounds good but lacks in the deep tones...I'm sure that's nothing a better drum head can fix

 If I can get these shells to sound great with the stock heads, I can only imagine how great they'll sound with better drum heads. The cymbals are complete trash but I still use em 😅. The toms are bright. The kick drum isn't as big sounding as a normal sized kick drum, but it's pretty punchy

  This kit is a perfect example of showing the importance of tuning, versus the kind of shells or drum heads you have. While the shells are relatively cheap compared to most drums, and the stock drum heads are okay, with the right tuning methods, you can get these drums to sound amazing. If I can get these shells to sound great with the stock heads, I can only imagine how great they'll sound with better drum heads. The cymbals are complete trash but I still use em 😅

.I'm sure that's nothing a better drum head can fix. Overall it sounds great.  You cannot beat the price! The quality of the hardware is good

Pearl Jazz Kit is Awesome!

 This kit can easily grow with you though, and I've already made a number of changes/additions. I immediately changed out the stock bass and tom drum heads with Remo heads and the snare with an Evans HD Dry. I also replaced the snare wires with PureSound Custom Pro. I purchased a telescoping cymbal stand and then bought a package of Meinl cymbals and hi-hats

 I also replaced the snare wires with PureSound Custom Pro. I purchased a telescoping cymbal stand and then bought a package of Meinl cymbals and hi-hats. The difference in sound quality between stock and upgrades is outstanding, even with lower-end cymbals.  If you are getting old and creaky like me and have back problems, I highly recommend you spend the money on a solid throne because you won't want to drum for long on the stock throne unless you enjoy having a numb butt, sore tailbone and aching lower back

 The difference in sound quality between stock and upgrades is outstanding, even with lower-end cymbals.  If you are getting old and creaky like me and have back problems, I highly recommend you spend the money on a solid throne because you won't want to drum for long on the stock throne unless you enjoy having a numb butt, sore tailbone and aching lower back. Likewise, your aging ears will thank you if you protect them with some Vic Firth isolation headphones.  Special note: I opted for the 5 piece kit, so I have 3 floor toms

Learning to Drum at Fifty-One!

I'll start by saying this is a great drumset for the money. It was purchased for a church and the only thing it's missing is a nice crash symbol. Otherwise it's great quality.  Let me start by saying this drums can't be beat for the money

 Otherwise it's great quality.  Let me start by saying this drums can't be beat for the money. The quality and sound if unmatched in this price range. The only reason I had to deduct 2 stars is because I received a mixture of red drums and silver drums, which was obviously a mixup

Great drums but had issues with color received

I'm fully aware that I wasn't buying a top of the line professional drum set, but I still had expectations from pearl. I'm going to kind of break down my reviews into a few sections.  First I'm going to talk about the drums (as in the shells). I never got a chance to tune them like I wanted, but for the price

  First I'm going to talk about the drums (as in the shells). I never got a chance to tune them like I wanted, but for the price.. I don't think they would have sounded terrible with proper set up

Would not recommend to anybody with any musical knowledge in anything. Such a poorly made set.

 The snare and rack toms are pre-tuned, so only the floor tom and the bass need tuning. I've never done that before and just by listening carefully I feel I am pretty darn close if not dead on with how those drums sound.  In many other reviews I read where some (apparently more seasoned) drummers report that the cymbals need to be replaced. I'm sure that's so if you're gigging or recording with the thing right off the bat, but for a boy learning the drums I feel like I can take my time on any upgrades like that

Wow. Excellent value here. Great first drum set for my son. Went together pretty darn easily, packaging was good, and for the price I was pretty stunned at the quality of fit and finish all the way around

 Pound for pound there is absolutely nothing to complain about here. In my mind Pearl did a great job delivering high quality at a very reasonable price point.

Excellent first kit for my son!

 Bass drum is horrible. It's 18" bass drum and just can not get decent sound out of it. Hi hat stand is good and bass pedal is good. I'm already bought new cymbals

 Toms sound good. Snare is ok. Bass drum is horrible. It's 18" bass drum and just can not get decent sound out of it

 Throne is way too small. If you are a big guy you might lose it in the middle of a gig, if you know what I mean. No way can I play a 3 hr gig with that seat. I'm now thinking about either getting a bigger bass drum or the drums were cheap enough that I could buy a better set

Great set for a beginner or intermediate drummer or even a pro drummer with some modifications.
