  • Those look amazing! Great sound too.

  • do you deliver to brazil?

  • @TheP95VI Please contact our Sales Department for shipping availability and rates. Call 888-276-2331 or email sales@memphisdrumshop[dot]com

  • Toms and bass sound good, but I like a wood snare sound more. Wood snares produce a more natural crack to them that metal drums or in this case acrylic drums don't produce.

  • THAT FLOOR TOM (:

  • @cottonfever1221 look like remo pinstripes to me

  • Love the sound of those toms! Really, wish I had those...

  • Gorgeous sounding kit!

  • best floor tom ever

  • Stunningly beautiful drum kit.

  • Heads are evans hydraulic's or ..? They really got that dead sound going on,they sound really OLD SCHOOL.

  • C&C is my dream kit. This one really is the best I've heard, and it's a beauty, too.

  • @QuickestQuickChop They are indeed as sturdy and reliable as any maple, birch, or any wood set. I have a Gretsch Catalina lacquer finish maple set as well as my acrylic Ludwig Vistalites and the Vistalite drums are heavier and thicker than the Catalina drums. Also as mrdrumstixx asked they would absolutly not shatter if dropped. In fact I believe wood drums would be at least as easy to damage if not easier than the acrylics. As I said before, take care of them and have them practically forever.

  • Would this totally shatter if you dropped it? O.o

  • @mrdrumstixx It's acrylic, almost plastic-like. They're very tough kits

  • i love that sound!!!

  • do you deliver to the uk?

  • @Harry6389 Yes, We ship to the UK. Please contact our sales dept for more info and rates. 888-276-2331 or sales@memphisdrumshop[dot]com

  • I WANT IT!!!!!

  • acrylic drum sets are the way to go

  • great kit. great sound. iloveit. what do you call that set-up? :)

  • @jbgreek1 I'm not sure, but I think that the 4-piece set-up is usually called a punk or a pocket. But I may be totally deluded :P

  • @QuickestQuickChop My Vistalite set is 38 years old and still in really good shape so like anything else, if you take good care of it it will last a long time. I suspect when they get the spider cracks around the lugs it's from someone having taken them off then overtightening when putting them back on or other cracks or splits come from dropping a drum or not paying attention and bashing one into a wall corner while moving them etc. Treat them with care and have them practically foerever.

  • @gman10911 Thanks for the advice! I am looking to order an acrylic kit like this, for its great sound. Would you say there just as sturdy/reliable as a maple kit?

  • that sounds super good i'd like to hear the bass drum a bit better though, I don't feel the video captured it completely but the rest of the kit sounds great

  • @Psychostick1 The pros of an acrylic kit are they are non-porous so you don't get any bad unwanted over-ring on the toms as you heard on this guys video like you do with a lot of wood sets. You get that nice solid crack from the snare and the bass usually has more "punch" to it again without too much over-ring. Also, they are the coolest looking drums on stage (I have a blue acrylic Vistalite set).

    The cons are they could develop small cracks to all out splits (especially if they have seams)

  • @gman10911 What would you say an average 'lifespan' of an acrylic kit? Assuming it's a hi-quality kit like this one.

  • Love the floor tom sound

  • i watch this video about every time i get on youtube. it just sounds SO good. especially that floor tom

  • I LOVE THIS KIT!!!!!

  • that kit is gorgeous

  • Soo powerful!!!

  • Best Tom Sound on Youtube...

  • what are the pro's and cons of an acrylic kit ?

  • @Psychostick1 depends on the sounds you want, if you like toms without almost any resonance then you want an acrylic kit, if you dont get a wood kit

  • This kit sounds beautiful

  • nice sound of snare

  • omg so cool

  • love the punchy toms and that snare is so nice

  • this made me want an acrylic kit

  • Wow, I've listened to this video so many times that i've memorized what he plays

  • best snare sound ever.

    

  • I love the coke bottle green it looks great also this is a great video nice drumming!

  • I love the punchy sound on the toms

  • That is so amazing looking

  • Acrylics are way easier to tune because of how consistent they are.

  • agreed the floor tom sounds so good

  • Soooo sexy.

  • What's the beat at 0:30?

  • @Romazio7 sounds like a reverse paradiddle between the hats and snare, with a constant kick pattern to lead into the fill. The rest is HISTORY!

  • i want to do this for a living

  • This sound is like heaven.

  • one of the best kits I've ever heard

  • this set sounds soooo amazing

  • Loving the When the Levee Breaks part.

  • I didn't realize an acrylic kit could sound this good! I'm imagining how bad ass I would feel bringing these drums to a gig. Without doubt a fantastic conversation piece.

  • this whole set is awesome

  • that looks like a beautiful set! What skins are use for the toms?

  • that couldnt be tuned any better.

  • why dont they make more of these type of sets?

  • i understand the fat sound of an acrylic snare, the punch of the rack toms, and the depth of the floor toms. however, what is the bass drum like?, does it "mimic" a type of wood?, is it more punchy then a standard wood bass drum? please someone explain to me the uniqueness of a acrylic bass drum.

  • holy cow!! i wish my drums sounded that bad ass!

  • i really like that coke bottle green! sound great too!

  • dat kit sounds amazing !!!

  • wow surprisingly kit sounds awesome!

  • the only thing I liked on that set was the rack tom. It does look real pretty though hahaha

  • floor tom's sound is really good for me)

  • never expect that an acrylic snra will sound that fat & deep

  • guys, guys...this is a $7K drum set. read --> your pearl exports with pinstripes will not ever sound this good

  • Well, you can always go fo rthe drumstore option, they will usually tune them for you. But, it's something you have to learn yourself. Check out the drum tuning bible, it explains EVERYTHING and is a very good guide to how to get the best sound out of your drums. Just google the Drum tuning bible and you'll find it. :) good luck man!

  • Please contact us through the Memphis Drum Shop website.

  • Before everyone gets too critical , We must remember he is trying to show us how the drums sound. It is not about him, it is about the drums and he keeps that in mind as he lets the drums resonate so we may hear them properly.
