I have heard not to trust them, but they do look good. I would like to try one out
I have never heard of them neither but i would like to take a look tough.
Do you have any information like pictures or a website we could go to.

Here you go. :thumb:
kk thnx :thumb: , well i'm guessing they will prolly not be a very good brand because of the following reason : They produce everything involving drums , pedals , the kit itself , the cymbals.
Ah company who does that wont ( i'm just assuming something) do enough research on how to improve their products cuz they are spending to much money making different products. But , you will never know if their good unless you'll give them a try...

Theres this shop where I live that carries a whole bunch of brands. This weekend I'ma go check if they have this set. Very curious on how it sounds, but not looking towards buying one (Still trying to convince me dad on the Mapex M birch series. I got him on the ropes too!:lol: )

I think they have those pics to like persuade someone on buying the set. But yeah maybe just a little overkill.
They did an awful job of photoshopping the second picture.
My Trevor Mcdonald kit looked more realistic than that.
why are there bassdrumspurs on those drums if they arent used.

My senses are telling me that they aren't a quality brand, I don't think that they'd even compare with CB drums, and we all know how good those drums sound.
Yeah, but they claim to be all birch (Their "higher end" models that is)
Higher end? On a the edge of a roof of a skycraper I presume?

These are junk drums. Cheap materials, bottom line. If they do use birch, it's the cheapest birch imaginable. I'd hate to even look at those bearing edges.
They get sales because they sell giant kits for cheap. As far as drums go: you usually get what you pay for.

BUT... I bet they very fun to kick over and stomp your feet through the toms, throw the stand against a wall. Kick the snare into the crowd, smash there cymbals and have foam at the mouth... But thats just a dream from my crazy head....

Why would you want to destroy a musical instrument? No matter how cheap...I hate when people trash their stuff. Think about it, there's alot of kids out there who would love to play an instrument, and people are out there destroying all this precious musical gear that could be put to a far better use, such as given to a child who can't afford to buy drums or a guitar. Anyways, that was my rant for the day...and these drums look as though they are crap, I mean come on look at the pics, low quality called.

They sell those all over Ebay to noobs that think "drumming would be like so awesome". Overkill AND a waste of time,effort, and money! PULSE drums are worth more; which PULSE drums suck.

I wouldn't want to destroy instrument seeing how time and hard work it'd take to buy one then just to go and destroy it.. Just wrong.
