Element Lacquer drums employ two Poplar plys at the core of its thin 6-ply shell for added bite and volume.

I expect to be satisfied for several years with this product. The hardware is good and it looks like it should last.
Sound
This kit is just amazing. Out of the box the 10 inch, 12 inch, and 13 inch toms already had heads on them and were tuned decently. The snare also had the heads on it but were pretty loose, but in 5 minutes i have the best sounding snare i've ever heard. I bought RemO's in advance which was good cause i was getting some harsh overtones until i threw them on. These babies sound amazing.
Features
For the price you are getting an amazing deal. The mounted and suspended tom mounts allow for complete customization for you to get your perfect feel. The kit also included extra lugs and such for those of us who tend to lose things (:
Ease of Use
I got home from the Avenged Sevenfold concert at 12 the night these had arrived and i couldnt help but setting them up. I don't believe it came with a manual... but for $700 this is relatively obviously a kit someone would step up to off a cheaper one. Its extremely playable, amazing customization.
Quality
The finish is gorgeous. i got mine with the green fade black and it looks amazing. The pictures in the description of the green make it look pretty bobo but the actually colors resemble to me a monster energy can. Everything came perfect out of the box!
Value
Amazing. You won't find a better deal. Especially with the added 10 in tom.
