Only brand that stated to accurately fit a dynasonic and it absolutely does that perfectly.
Great sound, beautiful wrap finish with black nickel hardware. Very happy with purchase and the support from the staff at PDS
Fantastic addition, A’s are the best rock ride cymbals. Yet, FedEx isn’t the greatest, it took over a week for delivery and it was a day late.
Beautiful strainer as if it was from the 1930's. Nice shiny chrome and fully functional. Speedy transaction as well.
I really like the the sound that Vater brushes have. In addition I like the way they feel on the drumhead. I highly recommend them. Keep them in the plastic wrap they come in and they should stay in pristine condition. Do know: they do not retract.
Got this to match the cymbal bag we already had. The quality build of the whole PowerPad line is great and the color options help to ensure that our stuff doesn't get lost in the pile of all the other basic black gear bags in the green room.
Nice bag. Not only will I transport my pedal in it there is room for additional accessories.
Holds the tom with tender, loving care. It was everything I thought it could be and more.
The new premium coating just feels more rugged and stronger than the old coating. And it's nice to finally have it in black. Hopefully this costing will make it to the Reverse Dot version of this head. Looks and sounds great on my HHG Stave Snare.
DCP, what more can I say but….great store, great staff, great shopping experience. You guys rock.
Great service, and Cymbal and Gong 20" Turkish ("K") ride is amazing.
They are fun. They go with my Sparkling Ocean Blue AQX kit.
I recently purchased a set of hi-hats online from Drum Center of Portsmouth. They certainly weren't cheap—I'm not saying they aren't worth the price, but they are a high-end product that requires a significant investment. In the end, it was a purchase of about $700.
The issue is that when I received them and opened the box, I was surprised to find stick marks and fingerprints on the cymbals. Honestly, I don't consider myself an oversensitive customer, and I like to think I have enough common sense not to make a scene over nothing. I’ve shopped at DCP before and they always provide great service. I understand these might have been floor models on display, and I'm okay with that, but when you buy something new, you expect it to arrive in brand-new, untouched condition.
That being said, DCP is a great store; I just wanted to leave this feedback to help the team understand what a customer expects at this price point.
