Meinl Amun Hi hats 14 inch SOundwave and Powerful and 16, 18 inch Crashes.

Hi, could someone give me a review on the Gretsch Blackhawk and/or the Mapex M kits please. I'm un-decided which kit to go for! Also could someone tell me what the difference is between the a fusion kit and a rock kit!

sorry for being a noob!
Cheers

[QUOTE=parijatkumar]I want to see reviews of sonor drum kits and A zildjian cymbals but the reviews should compare the products to other products of the same level.[/QUOTE]

For me, there is no better cymbal brand than Zildjian. I reckon they're the best, but they are expensive, if you live in the US, i know a site where you can get them cheaply, or on the other hand, good value for money makes are: Headliner, MCS and AA. Hope this is helpful to you!

[QUOTE=AfroDrummer16]yeah nobody is making any reviews....but neways it would be nice if some1 could review the Janus Ergo Double pedals and compare them to Tama Iron Cobra's[/QUOTE]
Having used both, I'd say it is down to personal preference. Personally I would favour the Tama Iron Cobra, which is what I use now, but try them both out and then pick the one you prefer, they are both really good! However, try and avoid belts if you can and go for chains, because I find that belts damage easier.

i know someone wrote a review of the dtxpress II but i'd like to know how much is worth a second hand one in good condition with a dtextreme snare added(mesh)

and for the iron cobra double pedal they're the best i've tried but i didn't tried alot of other models... i

Mapex M kits are the best in that price range IMO,

fusion sizes = 10",12" and 14" toms
rock sizes = 12",13" and 16" floor tom

first off titanium have a very bright sound otherwise just show and for something different, as for heads it really depends oin what style your playing. for rock just get a simple two ply clear pin stripe for the toms and coated for snare. jazz and lighter music a single ply will do

my personal opinion is that packs afre just a plain bad idea, go out and buy your own cymbals for each individual sound(mix and match brands). plus zbt are only useful for titanium

Its ok once you get use to it but for someone that is accelerant with heal toe you might not like it.
