![]() ![]() With the metal hoops, you have this channel and getting the lift on tight enough you have to over-tighten and the lift will actually start to bend, which is why I had to replace mine. The wooden bass drum hoops make a big difference on the batter side where the lift is installed because the lift needs a flat surface to attach too. So it was a grand total of $171 - yours will be higher if you change out all the heads because I stumbled upon a steal and took advantage! I walked in the other week and they actually had 10, 13, 16, pinstripes new in the box selling for around $7 each, and I found 14 heads for the snare (a coated emperor and snare side for $11 each), so I bought all of their stock, so that came up to around $66, and the Gibraltar bass drum pedal lift cost another $30 at Sam Ash.

Well, it was $70, plus a can of black paint and a brush at the Home Depot for the bass drum hoops. I know people love it's sound for such a small kit, but is it build to last? How easy is it to upgrade this kit? Can I buy a good quality wooden rim for the bass drum and better washers? Is this even possible? Are there people that have changed things on this kit, and made it better? I've read it had plastic washers on all tuners and a plastic hoop on the bass drum ( is hoop the right word for it?, maybe rim?) Now, I've watched countless review vids and read lots of forum topics on this kit, so I know what people think of it and how it's sounds. I need a kit that sound tight and snappy for a Roots/neo soul.hip hop feel. I needed something cheap, small and sounding exactly like what I heared in the Ludwig Breakbeats demo video with Questlove playing on it. I think it's way more dynamic than my Roland E kit, and I need it for future projects. I'm planning to purchase an acoustic kit. The only experience I have playing drums is playing a little on my electronic Roland kit. I'm not a drummer, I'm a HipHop/soul producer and a bass player.
