I saw a Stagg mini drumkit in the store, and wound up buying it. I replaced the plastic batter heads with Remos and Evans, and I use "real" (Zildjians and Paistes) cymbals with it, dampened the snare slightly with tape, and it's kind of astonishing how passably good it is. The smaller size is fun... that's what she NEVER said... And now it's my main rig for doing my hobby of recording one and 1/2-chord garage rock songs by myself.
@gwugluud I see a pack that has 3 of the sizes I need but says its for Tom's. Would "Tom" skins work for bass drum or is it better to get one specific that says "bass drum"?
Just ordered the blue set for my 4 year old because obviously he's too small for our regular kit. Glad to see you like it. I'm wondering how well my double bass pedal will fit in on it.
You can usually get any of those types of kits to sound good if you switch out the heads to better ones. None of those kits have good cymbals. They are cheap, poor, sounding tin. One problem with this kit is the cloth pulls on the bass pedal and high-hat. They give a bad response, stretch out, and break easily. If the kit does not at least have chain driven pedals, avoid the kit at all cost. Even still....with better tuning and some dampening on the drums, they can even sound better than how they are. As a kit to learn on and hopefully upgrade later(better drum heads and better cymbals), it can be an ok kit to learn on.
I have a beginner drum kit and when I first got it I did not know how to use it. When I started learning easy drum beats on TH-cam, I began to become better at the drums. I have been playing for about 8 months now, and I am really really good at the drums. Drumming like a pro way. Over the months I learned how to tune drums and muffle them. Soon I got new drum heads and they sound better then they were before. And I gotta say. You are pretty good behind the drums. Keep it up 👍👍👍
Hey! I started taking drum lessons for past 2 months, i'm using this kit for practice since its only one I have. Its working out pretty good, just when I go to the practice, their kit it feels so huge compared to this one 🤣
Hey Gamer Rade, sorry for late reply. I think you would have more satisfaction learning on a junior set rather than a kid size. They're around $300 usd, I think pearl has a 5pc. You could get away with it on this set but might have to do some modifications, get better heads, throne, cymbals.
I just wanted to hear how they sound! That was super helpful!! Thank you!!! And I really enjoyed the beats!!!
Scored this same set in Blue for my kiddo at Goodwill for a steal.
nice, I just updated the high hat with 8 inch zildjians, sounds really good, practical and portable, hopefully will do the skins soon

Nice sounds.. One day i wanna go buy.

Double bass pedal,-- i didn't think about that, would be pretty awesome 😎
We know it's for you no need to be embarrassed and taking about 4 yr olds

I have the exact same kit! But it’s black. And my FIRST drum set
Love it
Quick tip! Turn the snare drum upside down to make it sound ALOT better😁
Bro……
where did you get that tip😆
looking into this kit as an electronic conversion project thank you🔥🔥
Just put a snare ring on the snare and it’ll sound a lot better
:D
Thanks for the video. I’m looking for one for my kids.
cool, my kids, just bang on them, but recently i noticed my 5 year old actually trying to keep a beat
Thanks just the kind of video I’m looking for not a drummer myself but want something a step up from a toy for my lil girl

Ah yes a pro at playing drums in just eight months lol
@@akfish0515anything better than average technically is pro level if you think about it, and 8 months can get you there
You have good timing tho
Woo hoo! Can't wait to get the blue version of this!
Hey, I updated the description with some specs if you want to upgrade skins, @gwugluud comment has upgrade suggestions.
Awesome review, thank you! Sounds like it's basically just right for letting your kid try it out before spending bigger bucks?
I’m gonna order this kit but mine is a different brand
These kits are a nightmare out of the box but if you change the skins, tune it, buy a bass drum pedal and add good cymbals then you have a deal 😂

Great review! Thanks!
I know it says kids but as a beginner would I be able to get away with using this I’m a teenager (16)
