hey guys, i'm interested in taking up some casual drumming.
I live in a hdb so the noise will definitely be an issue. Right now i have my sights set on a pearl RT since it comes with mesh heads and it's not too expensive 2nd hand. At least i get to practice at home.
But i personally would prefer getting a more "standard" drum kit. There's another person selling his pearl forum kit and i do want to get it but i was advised by some drummer friends not to bother getting a decent kit for practice since i cannot play it loud at home anyway and i'll regret having spent money on something i cannot fully utilize and they feel that the pearl RT would be just nice for me.
I was reading up on the muting method in the how-to forums about stuffing the kit with fibre. So my problem now is i don't know which one to go for. A more decent 2nd hand kit to stuff with fibre or just get a 2nd hand pearl RT using the mesh heads it comes with. If the fibre method is effective for a hdb setting then i don't mind getting something within the $6-800 range.
Please advise thanks!!
