I love the color!!! When I opened the boxes, I was actually surprised at the color. I thought they would be closer to white but they're not. The off-white color really makes the black hardware stand out. And the texture......I didn't know they were going to have a wood grain feel to them. Another bonus!! They sound pretty good with the heads that come with them, but I will be changing over to a different, higher quality head (my preference). The sound is already like a canon. Can't wait to see what the new heads do to it. Also bought the black plated stand package to go along with it. I recently had them set up for a rehearsal and put photos on Facebook. All comments were in regards to how "beautiful" they are. I can take that as a compliment for my drum set!!!

Looks amazing, sounds great! Probably one of the nicest shell kits for the money. The Tom mounts are great, and this set looks way more expensive than it is. Tuning is simple, and the tone is amazing tuned deep. Sounds amazing, fun to play!
Sound
Sounds great. Changed everything right when I got it, sounds amazing and looks great with coated white heads.

The Tom mounting system is impressive. It looks great and is extremely functional. The center post accepting a cymbal arm is a cool feature, and the black hardware and everything is super cool.

Simple set up, easy drums to tune.

Made extremely well. Everything seems super heavy duty and built to last.
