I have an armory kit. Just upgraded the kick to a Falcon. Big difference! Love the leds ( probably do the same) , the dog, the cat and of course your review. Thanks really enjoyed this.❤
That's a really cool kit! Congrats! I've got a Mapex Armory with 2 kicks in black dawn! And I really LOVE it! A few weeks ago I got a special offer for a Mapex Black Panther Solidus snare from the distributor here in Spain. So amazing! 🤘🤘🤘
That was really awesome, great video! 2-3 years ago I bought the 6 piece MAPEX Rainburst Armory kit. However, I grew up in a recording studio in San Jose, CA (Bay Area) which in that time I always saw drummers from all types of genre put on REMO Pinstrip Heads and it always sounds great in there recordings. And because of that I knew that's what I was going for myself.
One of my dream students as a Mapex kit, and I’ve been really impressed with it! It came with a black hardware which looks pretty cool! Those purple heads along with those purple drums looks super dreamy!! All you need now are some purple sticks!! Oooo and a black light!!
Have same kit in Ultramarine. Played a show last week. Soundman(also a drummer) raved about the sound. He said tuning was perfect and worked with drummers using DWs he had to tune for them. I using Evans heads and put very little work into tuning. Love Mine!!!
I had a mapex orion maple kit for twenty years. It was awesome.all the tom mounts where isolated. including the base drum tom holder and the bass drum legs and floor tom legs. 8:59
I've used mapex VENUS, mapex M series, mapex saturn V Studioease and I've used two Mapex Black Panther Labs Chris Adler snares. Both of which are the same size and same material just the lug patterns are different. Plus one is over $600 and the other is $499. I love Mapex and always will. They are affordable and sound great. Hopefully one day I can afford the Black Panther Series kit. Love your kit, plus the drum head's choice of color. Can't wait to hear it!
Just found your channel and subscribed. I sold my drums a few years ago, but look forward to getting back into playing and have been looking recently at Mapex Drums. Love your kit, and your Frenchie!
Diggin' your entire vibe. Dead eye, Cubs fan, talented authentic drummer. Nice! Sub. Will be picking up the Mapex HP8005 5-piece Armory Series Hardware Pack tomorrow.
I play Sonor (SQ1 and Vintage) and Mapex is awesome (same parent company). The Armory is a solid kit and I’ve yet to encounter a better hybrid than the Saturn. I’d rock the emerald green, but that’s just me. Play on. Cheers, Molly.
Have you try with a Remo Emperor colortone on the top and on the bottom of your toms, same on your bass drum: Remo 22" P3 Colortone Batter Purple on kick, and Remo 22" P3 Colortone Reso Purple, not muffling needed just a nice low tuning and believe me your walls will shake ! 😉
Henry Go is one heck of a guy he was artist relations at Innovative Percussion where I work, I love my Armory I have the red burst, again congrats on being an Artist with Mapex
Colortones are cool I have them on my jellybean kit I love mapex hardware I have the black hardware pedals and all 🥁I’m a huge Paiste guy and pearl guy but you need to complete that kit with some purple Paiste color sounds I wish I could visit Pearl headquarters there in Nashville I have 14 pearl kits they would love me 😂
Yo Molly what's your puppy's he's a little cutie French bulldog I see you got Gibraltar stealth racks that mapex purple drum set is sweet looking so what country band you like the most their country girl
@@mollyrosedrums I'm really fond of Jason Aldean myself Brooks & Dunn it's good how long have you been playing the drums I just started about two months ago I wanted to play since I was little but I never could I started into a very late I'm 56
Mapex Armory are incredible drums, bought mine in Caribbean Burst finish. Swapped all the stock heads with Evans Onyx.....sounds like a $10,000 kit at a fraction of the cost.
When checking the Armory out, pretty sure Mapex (or some reviewer), said it is one less hole which makes for a better sound. I have the same kit in the emerald green like the photo shown. I think there's a convenience plus with the bass drum mount but have gotten used to the stand mounts. Will probably get a dedicated tom stand some day since positioning for both the tom and cymbal is a bit of a pain to get just right. Pretty sweet reasonably priced kit.
Molly 🌹 I am very Happy for you, you will enjoy Mapex One of my drummer friends @austinArbelaezdrumz is a Mapex Artist and he tells me Mapex will take goo care of you and make your dream kit, have fun with your new Drum kit it looks amazing. Don't forget too follow Austin he is amazing Drummer here on YT awesome friend too and you are as well!!!
Awesome! Mapex is great and their customer service is top notch!
it 100% is
@@mollyrosedrums congratulations on being in Mapex family and got a brand new drum set from them
This Review is Awesome ✌🏻😊
Drums are Amazing. The Drum Solo sounds Great.
Best kit for the money. I have an old Mapex birch kit that has held up very well for many years. Still sounds fantastic. Excellent choice.

Great review. Love the Armory kit. It's awesome to see more and more professional women drummers
I just got my 9 piece Maypex Armory kit in two months ago. Same color. It's a great affordable kit to have. Congrats on your choice. Rock on!!!👍
Hey Molly! Great choice, I play a Mapex Armory kit and I absolutely love it!

congrats Molly! love seeing your hard work pay off!!!
Bought a mapex armory kit back in 2018 it went for 638$ then, it more than doubled in value since and they sound great!
Just found your channel and subscribed. I sold my drums a few years ago, but look forward to getting back into playing and have been looking recently at Mapex Drums. Love your kit, and your Frenchie!
Great video! Love your new kit! Looks great and sound awesome! Congrats!
Excellent review! Thanks so much!
Quick question--did the tom holders come with the hardware kit? Or did you need to buy them separately?
Thanks!

Mapex makes a great drum! Congrats on the sponsorship.

My first kit was a Mapex... good brand.
Do u like armory better than Saturns? I own 2 saturn kits, a maple walnut and birch walnut and love them both! I need to check.out an Armory.

What drum throne are you using?
Pork pie, I just got it!
Mapex Armory are incredible drums, bought mine in Caribbean Burst finish. Swapped all the stock heads with Evans Onyx.....sounds like a $10,000 kit at a fraction of the cost.
Now that you got new gear maybe it won't fall apart on you like some of your gig videos. lol Looks good!
AHA! that gear I use is house stuff, and not in good shape at all lol!
I gotta have more cowbell…..
what's the purpose of not putting a tom mount on bass drum?
When checking the Armory out, pretty sure Mapex (or some reviewer), said it is one less hole which makes for a better sound. I have the same kit in the emerald green like the photo shown. I think there's a convenience plus with the bass drum mount but have gotten used to the stand mounts. Will probably get a dedicated tom stand some day since positioning for both the tom and cymbal is a bit of a pain to get just right. Pretty sweet reasonably priced kit.
Do you know if they have an Armory 24" bass drum?
I don't think they do in the armory, but in other ones they do!
