getting a drumset

[deadstar101]

Hey people Im new here. If I have a budget of 1 to 2 K, what types of drums are available with that budget?

 

[ericpatrickclapton]

[deadstar101]

Ok about 1K plus. I have not much cash

 

[soft]

deadstar101, have you done any research? which are some of the drumset that you have shortlisted?

 

[deadstar101]

maybe tama or pearl im not sure if my budget is enough to get one of those 2

 

[soft]

you can check out the stores.

swee lee
yamaha
www.ezimusic.com
drum resources @ excelsior hotel shopping

just ask them to recommend you something within your budget. then you test it out and see which you prefer.

erm may i ask ezi music got shop one?

 

[soft]

you may want to ask them directly. Ricky is a very nice guy!

why does every person who wants to buy a drumset say pearl or tama. i made a cymbal buying guide now's someone else's turn to make a 'drumset buying guide' thread

 

[kanzer]

haha yeah man.. tama and pearl is overated.. haha lol but although their products are good..

 

[alvinthedrummer]

Nope, EZI has no shop front for now. You can try out the kit for yourself at The Music Lab. Its located at Paradiz Centre #B1-11. I can do a demo for you too if you want.

PM me if you need my number.

Cheers!

how bout yamaha or say zildjian?

 

[deadstar101]

Yamaha's sets are too expensive. I think e cheapest costs about like 1.4K. I think

 

[ericpatrickclapton]

wow what a professor.hahah.what bout zildjian doob?

 

[nysk]

zildjian is a cymbal brand not drum brand....
but anyways i think its good for u to use the cash at a sweelee 50% sale to get at least a pearl export

 

[joshie]

dont turn down yamaha cause of its price. seriously, go try the yamaha customs you'll be amazed.

 

[kanzer]

haha yamaha since when can we try the drum sets there? heh.. can we?

 

[myner]

they only have their half kits in the test room at the back in plaza sing.
they don't let you try the rest right?
ITS ON A SHELF...

If you have a budget of 1-2k, the best is to get a maple or birch shell drumsets. It's more affordable now. You can check out popular brands like Pearl, Tama, PDP, Gretcsh as they comes with good hardwares. Other brands like Peace also have maple set which is affordable too.
My personal advise is to go see and test the kit that you're buying, don't just listen to ppl cos usually ppl will swear by certain brands that they like or using. So the main thing is, you should be happy with the stuff you're buying as it's quite an investment.
