I'm hoping they will last me a life time!
Sound
I am a first time Ddrum buyer, at first I was nervous, I just sold my 6 pcs. Pearl export radical kit, which I had for nearly 5 years, the kit sounded great with the right heads. unfortunately, the wrap started bubbling off ALL the drums, even the 16"x 16" floor tom I custom ordered to match later. I went at looked at a used Ddrum dominion tequila sparkle limited edition pocket kit, this kit was gorgeous! I bought the shell pack for 399.00. After I had gotten home, I put new heads on all the drums, and man -O-man how awesome!! way better than the pearl kit!! the quality of the maple shells and the finish blew me away, but the sound is the seller! now I went from a 16" x 22" bass drum, to this 20" x 20" with hesitation, until i hit it for the first time! WOW!! what a deep rich punch!! I LOVE THIS KIT and will be keeping these for awhile!
Features
The pocket kit was only the shell pack, but it did come with the arm for the rack tom.
Ease of Use
This kit is very user friendly! being a 5 piece with double floor toms gives this kit a great amount of versatility! I immediately skinned all my Toms with Evans hydraulic heads, and the Bass drum got an Evans E-mad, and the snare was skinned with an Evans HD dry batter! these drums sound amazing!!
Quality
I can't sell these drums enough! the quality is unreal, compared to Pearl, Tama, Ludwig, PDP, there is NO contest, these drums are hand made, the finish is is unlike anything I have ever seen on any drum, and I have been playing drums for nearly 35 years! I did notice the lugs vary in size, but didn't have any strip out, also the leg on the floor toms could be a little beefier, but still fine!
Value
For the money, both new or used, these drums I believe are the best value out there!
The Wow Factor
Oh man! the tequila sparkle finish is the sexiest thing I have seen in a long time!!
