It will give me something new to learn and save the band sometime when trying out drummers and having them lug their {censored} in. Plus it's only $150

 

 

Starion beginner drum set includes bass, floor tom, 2 rack toms, snare, hi-hat, 2 cymbals, throne, and snare case.

Yep. I have an acoustic kit at my parents' house but I'd like to get one of the small Roland V-drum kits for my apartment. Call me a {censored}, but I just don't like how loud drums are.

Does anyone have that reaction to a REALLY loud snare where your eyes like kinda/sorta flutter halfway close, or am I the only one? If you're right kinda next to it? I try not to do it, but sometimes a certain-pitched snare does that to me, which is weird.

Yes. It's {censored}ing annoying. My drummer and one guitarist have no concept of volume management when you have no hearing protection in. They think it's funny for some reason that my ears hurt when they play loudly. It really pisses me off. Why can't they just wait a few seconds for everyone to put in their plugs or whatever?

that's what I did. Makes rehearsal and recording WAY better.

Nothing wrong with that bro.

I bought my little bro a set of Roland V drums a couple months ago, and I swear those things are the greatest invention ever in percussion. Especially when you're in a sound critical enviornment like a house/apartment, or even small bar. After only a few times playing with a drummer who had V-drums, I just don't want to play with acoustic drums any more.

Couldn't agree more. Best investment yet that I've made into my studio.

A drumset is an asset, man. I have one that I haven't played in almost 3 years because I live in a townhome. I'm trying to sell it, but if I don't, I won't stress about it. Even if you're not a drummer, having a set around makes things MUCH easier.

half the kids in my percussion class last year would blink EVERY time they hit the snare, it was so funny to watch the ones that did :D

I think I've decided that I'd be happy with V-Drum shells if I had real cymbals.

 

The cymbal pads just don't cut it, IMHO.
