That's two years since I bought this drumkit. A great choice with a great color that is much darker than the pictures of leaves appear sites.

I have a Mapex Pro M kit (which I am very happy, but I sent home in Britain) and type "Jazette" Tama Imperialstar kit (useful for small bars, which sounds great). I needed a more impressive drumkit with a good kick and the ability to place my drums as I want.

An excellent kit, exactly what I wanted. Thanks to the small depth of the drums, I can now install more horizontal my kit to be my circles toms 10 "x6.5, 12" x7 ", 14" x12 ", 16" x14 ".

The depth of the bass drum (22 "diameter, 18" deep) gives a wonderful depth (I put it as a Aquarian superkick 2 skin). The short barrels allow for a highly accurate attack but without much depth in the bass, but with a good set of skins is not a problem. I did some recording with this kit in a large studio and give her a stunning result!

For a 100% birch kit, a very warm and deep bass drum, dynamic and accurate toms this is a very good buy!

The only downsides are the snare drum (14 "x5.5") with a metal circle that sounds too in the barrel (I'll replace it with a wooden circle, or thinner and a different type of metal) The store where I bought it (Star's M ***** e) with whom I had déboirs.
At first I bought a display model (for a bit cheaper) but came with a big scratch on the bass drum ... After five exchanges kick (yes all with a scratch on the bass drum and the seller blurted out that it is not normal that it happens "advanced by" me), the store realized that there was a manufacturing defect, though the 5th exchange was given a big deeper than what I had asked cash ... I have not done my choosy and I took it. But I had to wait six months before having a full drum kit! ...

To conclude, if I had the choice between performing such purchase or other, I would choose this purchase, but at another store!
