I'm planning to get a 5-piece drum set with cymbals at about 800-1k, any suggestions? :/ i dont mind resales! been looking at 2nd hand imperial star ($800) but itll cost me abit to get cymbals. SUGGESTIONS bros!!
To the OP: If I were you, I would go for a 2nd hand kit and cymbals. Drums and cymbals are made to last, and since you're on a tight budget, it's more worth it that way.
haha... just keep a look out for a drumset la. Dont get first hand. haha. its pretty darn ex. unless u wait for swee lee sale... may be u find some cheap mid range cymbals. soft u can get a drumset with changd heads and some mid range cymbals or low end ones for around $800 at most? yeap... cheap and poplar ones gng for sale in soft is TamaSTAGESTAR and Pearl rhytmn traveller. better change the drumheads.. otherwise sounds bad. haha.
Even if u get stock cymabls with the set. im pretty sure ull want to sell them once u whack them. Sound like tin cans man... get at leastttttt a sabian B8 PRO or sabian xs20. they aint too bad. pretty bright sounding! yeap.
Try to find a set which some with cymbals.
Cause even mid range cymbals cost $150-$200. u have to buy like a few right... so might as well spend abit more say.. 1k on a yamaha/pearl fusion wih mid range cymbals. yup!
KEEP A LOOK OUT
Soft pretty darn good
But do widen your knowledge abt other websites like www.phing.com or ebay. or www.guitar4christ.com
But soft really the best in singapore
I am a beginner and maybe going to get a pearl forum...
i will play for about one yer with the stock cymabls and then get zildjians or sabians/paiste.... gud idea or not????????
sound good. i also buy stock cymbals first then later maybe chg to xs20.
bt yea, true enough, the stock cymbals sound like cans?? the ride especially, doesn't sound cool.
haha pearl forum. dunno why i say fusion. yeap. anyway stock cymbals really sound like tin cans. haha. anyway. one year with stock cymbals? shorten the duration la.. pretty sure u will. yeap upgrade to at least sabian b8 or b8 pro. haha. up to u la $800 for a beginner's drumset is a decnt price so dont worry too much about it) yeap.
