History:
Purchase: I bought this set at Steve's Music in Montreal for a very decent price - 400$.
That included hardware. It's a budget drumset made of mahogany, birch and basswood.
What I Like About This Unit: They sound absolutely wonderful for the price. The drumset totally blows the competition. It sounds warm, round and deep with good resonance for such a light drumset. The harware is allright and a lot of tought was put into it. Rockstars, Exports and even Stage customs aren't this good.
What I Do NOT Like About The Taye Spotlight: The hardware is decent, but the pedal isn't very good. I also have to complain about the snare drum which sounds like grabage can, although it is made out of wood!!! I just can't get a decent sound out of it.
Spotlight Quality: Construction is fabulous in this price range; bearing edges are nice and the lugs are of high quality.
Summary: This is a great drumset for the beginner or even the pro who doesn't want to carry his big heavy kit everywhere. Ray Ayotte has a great line of drums with Taye and the Spotlight has to be the greatest value in drumming commerce today.
