History: Ive played drums for 3 years now and i also play in a metal band. ive had this kit for my entire drumming career and it is excelent plain and simple!!!
Purchase: I bought this kit 2nd hand and it didnt have a mark on it. It cost me £100 and is worth every penny. I upgraded it with Meinl cymbals and an iron cobra double bass pedal.I still need 2 upgrade the heads aswel. id recomend Remo, Evans or Aquarian heads.
What I Like About This Unit: double braced hardware, 9 ply shells. its great for the price and rivals pearl and tama. Some people say this kit is bad but i completely disagree. For the money you cant go wrong!
What I Do NOT Like About The CB SP Series Drums: i dont like the heads especially the bass head because its hard to get both beaters sounding the same. apart from that the other skins arnt realy that bad for economy heads and would last a beginner along time. Also the snare stand isnt very stable on a carpet floor but seems ok on a hard floor.
SP Series Drums Quality: The idea of the bass tuning keys is a good and bad idea. it good because it makes tuning alot easier but can catch on things during transport. The hardware is very solid and wil take alot of punishment as will the shells. I kno this from gig experience.
Summary: This kit is EXCELENT!! a band called Mage (a professional band) uses 2 of thes kits linked together and it stands up to the rigours of touring, recording and practises without fail. The best kit for anyone from beginer to expert. Even if you plan on spending big money buy this as your core kit and build it up using the money you save. that was my plan and it worked well.
