r/drums

The value is clearly with the Tama kit, but the Gretsch kit is absolutely the better sounding set of drums. Not that the Rockstars were a bad sounding kit - far from it - but I find the Catalina Maples to be warmer and have more tone to them - something I really look for in toms, in particular.

Hey Guys,

This is my 2nd post like this (really sorry), but a new 2nd hand kid just came available which seems like an amazing offer... but which do I go for?

Do I go for a Tama Rockstar kit (2 toms, floor tom, snare and bass drum) with all hardware included - Hihat stand, Pedal, 3 cymbal stands, splash cymbal  attachment, snare drum stand. It even comes with all cymbals, B8 hi-hats/Crash, B8 Pro Ride, Zildian China &amp; Splash and a cowbell all for 450EUR. Bass drum has new heads with sound hole as well as large/medium damping rings.

It's a simple black kit.

Then there is a Gretsch Catalina Maple, 2 rack toms, 2 floor toms, snare, Bass drum. No hardware or Cymbals for 400EUR. It's a nice Satin Deep Cherry Burst.

&amp;#x200B;

I prefer the look of the Gretsch kit, I haven't heard either in person. Will require a bit of a drive so definitely not something I want to drive out just test how they sound. Gretsch does seem like a better kit in general to me, extra floor tom is nice too. But the value of the Tama is pretty crazy?!?!? Is it a really bad kit or is this guy just desperate to sell?

Deciding on which drums to get is tough! Tama Rockstar vs Gretsch Catalina Maple

If you're gigging you'll hate this. One huge bass drum is kind of a pain in the ass, I can't imagine lugging around two! If I were you I'd get a used Tama Rockstar or other better quality kit and get a nice double kick pedal.

I've been looking to buy some drums for a while. Are these good quality? it's tama imperialstar double b.set-hbk

Whether you're a beginner or a working pro, this Yamaha Stage Custom Birch 5-piece shell pack gives you a lot of bang for your buck. Complete with a pair of rack toms, a floor tom, snare drum, and bass drum, this Custom Birch pack will imbue your drumming with the same low, fundamental, warm tone that has become a trademark of Yamaha's birch drum designs over the past three decades. Drummers at GearNuts have always been fans of Yamaha's low-mass lugs because of the way that they allow the shells to vibrate, resulting in remarkable tone and sustain. Finished in a beautiful high-gloss lacquer, this Yamaha Stage Custom Birch 5-piece shell pack embodies value, quality, and craftsmanship.

Recently got a Yamaha stage custom birch, and it's perfect. I love the birch sound, and it's so incredibly cheap compared to all other birch options.

<div class="md"><p>O-O</p>
</div>

What drum sets do you guys use?

First off, a 5 piece all birch shell pack for $700 is insane in itself. But the finish - I got pure white - is unbelievable. I couldn’t believe that it’s not a wrap it’s an actual finish, no cheap wrap w some big seam or anything like that.

Blown away by Stage Custom

Nothing cheap about this set except for the price. Top grade fit and finish. Ideal forgigging If you're finicky about the heads ,I replaced the BD batter with a Remo Powerstroke 3 for a more controlled sound. I bought mine new on closeout from Guitar Center for less than the price of a decent snare drum

Amazing for what you can get for under a $1K these dayys

 That's the easy part. Most of my time was spent on the last stage. Tune the batter and resonate head the same trying to keep the overtones intact. You will find 1/8 of a turn or less is required to get the heads tuned the same

 You will hit a noticeable sweet spot where the tom produces overtones (rings longer). Tune the remaining lugs in the same manner. That's the easy part. Most of my time was spent on the last stage

 You will also find 1 lug off will destroy the overtones. You will also find a very small tuning range window if you want the tom's shell to resonate like the others in this set.  If by chance you are looking to purchase this set from Musicians Friend: Beware of the free gift (cymbals) offer that comes with the set. If you buy the set expecting to receive the cymbals with your order, nix that

 The shells resonate well when the batter and resonant heads are tuned the same.  After 3 hours verse 20 min., I have been able to get the 12" tom close to resonating the shell with a nice tone. Roughly, tune the tom

Nice Sound, Good hardware, 12" tom difficult to tune

 However, it would've been a five star, but the drumheads aren't the best. I'm going to have to replace them to get less ringing and more umph from the smaller tom. Also, despite all the bubble wrap, there's a giant gash in the bass drum.

Decent. Needs better heads and packaging.
