Best ever!
I am very pleased with the snare drum. It not only sounds amazing but looks great also. Thank you.
This is exactly THE SOUND and FEEL that I was seeking. Tonal warmth, controlled overtones, dynamic responsiveness from delicate to hard playing, filtering of high frequency overtones. Sustain is just right. I added an extra REMO’s Ring for some additional control on the 14” and 16” FTs, but not needed on the smaller toms. Stick feel is on the soft side, not bouncy. There is zero sense of a plastic ringy sound or plastic feel. If you have any inclination towards calf-like heads, you should consider these. They bridge the gap nicely between natural and film heads. Don’t let the name fool you - these are all-purpose heads from gentle studio playing, jazz, to live rock. I have tried many brands and models of tom heads over the years. The Powerstroke P4 Coated is my favorite for my Sonor tom batter heads.

Fast and reliable
Love DCPS! Easy to talk with and always helpful. If they weren't 23 hours away, I'd drive there weekly!
Fits properly. EVERY gigging drummer needs memory locks unless you can find a drum tech for $2 an hour. 😂 I am trying to find one but I am having no luck. Know of anybody? 😜 This helps make set up faster because all drummer I know love setting up and tearing down. 😩
Very happy with my purchase. No damage in shipping and amazing snare!
Great drum, great price. This is one of the best bang-for-buck purchases that I have made. Don't be fooled by the low price. This is a very capable drum.
Excellent ride cymbal for my use. Kind of a soft feel under the stick with a woody sound. It has 3 different areas that I like to play.
It works well. I can use it for practicing even though it does make a small amount of noise.
The 16 was great. As were the other 9 heads i received.
This is a beautiful drum kit, couldn't be happier
Excellent customer service, very helpful and knowledgeable about the gear.
Thank you ,
Jamie
