Find Best Price at Amazon"My only gripe with this head is that the smaller foam ring doesn't stay on the head, it falls right out after a couple kicks with the pedal."
"But it also seems to sacrifice quite a bit of volume compared to Remo Powerstroke P3 Clear, at least on my kick."
"I let a friend play my drummer's bass drum when he came over to jam and he accidentally broke the drum head."
"I am no drum tuning pro, so when a head come ready to just apply and play.."
"I am in love with the elegant concept of achieving a good kick sound without stuffing anything inside of it."
"It delivers a heavy bass sound considering I'm using the 20" version."
"I completely agree with the previous reviews that say that it doesn't necessarily give the chest-resounding whump that you get from a down-filled pillow in the drum cavity, but I love that the rings allow for options in terms of the degree of muffling. In other words, before, the liner served two functions: to muffle the resonance of the beater head; and to add depth to the sound (the deep thump)."
"The seller I just bought this EMAD from decided to not tape those slits, or any part of the box the head comes in... I’m missing the included heater patch the EMAD usually comes with because it probably fell out of the unsecured box."
The Bahia Bass Buffalo drums produce a low frequency bass tone that is found in many traditional drums from Africa, Brazil, and the indigenous cultures of the Americas. Manufactured with the vinyl Bahia Bass fixed pre-tuned drumhead and Remo's patented ACOUSTICON drum shells.

"Its the size i'm looking for with the quality of sound it produces."
"Is a well made drum, but the stick that comes with it is pretty cheap and isn’t cushioned the same all the way around the edges."
"A sheer pleasure to hear the deep bass of the drum and a great way to kick off a drum circle."
"I'm enjoying my drum very much."
"The sound is so full and resonates in every corner of every place."
"I searched to find it because its tones are low and rich and vibratory and easily take me into trance."
"No more packing heavy drums to drum circles that have directions like "park in the lot and walk 1/4 mile up the wash" carrying a water jug, etc., and no more worrying about getting caught in the rain with my beautiful djembe."

Overall this is an amazing price for starting out fresh with endless possibilities to expand. Plus, my hardware is still perfect, but the cymbals are for practice only (dont expect Zildjian, just something to train with till the time is right."
"With the help of our daughter's band teacher, we selected this set."
"For the price this set comes with a lot of great features."
"Good quality for the price."
"The drum set was relatively easy to set up by watching the instruction dvd that came with the set. Overall I gave the drum set four stars out of five because although it has its flaws, it fulfills its purpose, which is being a good drum set for a beginner."
"EXACTLY WHAT I EXPECTED!!!"
"The good thing about this set is that it fits in small places if set up right, it is also good for if you don't have a lot of money to spend."
"but great drum set if you upgrade it and buy new equipment."

"We bought our kids a beginner drum kit for Christmas, and the reviews said that the kit was excellent with the exception of the cymbals, which were cheap."
"There is another Meinl cymbal pack that is 200$ and includes these cymbals plus a 20 inch ride, however I personally recommend buying this pack and the ride separately, it's cheaper."
"These were a present for my son on his birthday a great gift for a drummer just starting out."
"If you are starting out and/or are on a really tight budget and need cymbals, you really ought to try these."
"These Meinl cymbals sound great and evoke high quality engineering (made in Germany)."
"SOUNDS GOOD THE CRASH AND RIDES ARE GREAT."
"The Meinl hi-hats are just a tad better than the Wuhans, but the Wuhan crash and splash are 10x better than the Meinls I got."
