Frequently Asked Questions

Maple offers a warmer, more rounded tone than birch, which tends to be brighter and more focused. This kit will be more forgiving for less experienced players and will suit genres that benefit from a more mellow sound.
The included heads are serviceable for starting out, but upgrading to a higher-quality set of heads will significantly improve the overall tone and response of the kit.
The hardware is well-made for its class, but it's not quite on par with high-end professional hardware; it's best suited for regular practice and occasional gigs rather than heavy touring.
