        This is a very good drum set for the price and you might even say for any price...The shells and hardware are of good quality which shouldn't be a big surprise since Gibralter makes Sound Percussion Drum Sets for Musicians Friend and Guitar Center...I would highly recommend these drums to any player from novice to pro, they are that good...When purchasing this set, you will want to also buy new drum batter heads all around...The pedals are ok but you may want to upgrade those also...I replaced all the tom batter heads with Remo Emperor Coated along with the Snare Batter and I replaced the 2 Bass drum batters with Remo Clear Pinstripes...I rounded-out the set with Zildjian ZXT Rock Cymbals and I am quite impressed with it all as are others who think I spent a lot on my set from the way it looks and sounds ( I went with the Black)... A few other things to note about this set, all the hardware comes with Memory Locks for quick setup and teardown, and the Resonant heads are acceptable for use as is...You will also want a Drop-Clutch for the Hi-Hat...And as with any drum set, learn how to tune your drums properly..I spent around 5 hours tuning these because I am very picky about the sound that I want so don't rush the tuning process and then be disappointed in the outcome...I have played drums off and on for over 40 years and hope that this review helps those that are on the fence.
        Good shell quality...Good hardware quality...Heads are typical low-end.
        For the price, this is a very good value

          Comments about Sound Percussion Pro 8-piece Double Bass Drum Set:

          My review on the SP 8 piece double bass set.

          1st off, for the price...it`s worth it!

          Awesome Rock solid hardware. 3 double braced stands. 1 cymbal arm really nice hi hat stand that`s adjustable tension and awesome suspension mount on rack toms. The batter heads are double ply, even the bass drum heads! The resonate heads are only single Ply, so you will get a lot of ringing and unwanted overtones. I would sudgest getting new 2ply batter heads and use the 2 ply stock as resonate heads. Also it comes with 2 completely different bass drum pedals. One has a plate bottom, the other has the metal rods. This is because they sell the 5 piece, then the add on kit, then the hardware pack all together as the whole kit. It is not a complete package in a sense
          Also the hi hat stand is great, but is set up WAY too far from the 2nd bass drum. Would be nice to see a hi hat to bass drum attachment included.

          This kit is solid, hardware is great and sounds pretty good, as long as you get some better heads and know what you are doing.

          I got this kit 2yrs ago and have had it ever since.. for the first 4 or 5 months of playing it i noticed the snares drum head beginning to break.. and the 3 rack toms drum heads beginning to as well.. the hardware is ok but isn't the best.. long story short this kit is good for people who want a big kit but are on a budget but if u have the money i would recommend a more better kit.. but this is a good kit that is worth the money

          By nathan adock

          from Undisclosed

          Comments about Sound Percussion Pro 8-piece Double Bass Drum Set:

          This kit is absolutely awesome and can handle the abuse of any type of drumming. If u are a beginner i recommend either the sabian b8 cymbals or zildian zbt cymbals for a good deal
          The set came with plenty of hardware which was strong and held up to abuse.
          The stock tom heads are surprisingly good. i have had the set for a little over 2 years and have replaced the snare and bass heads. i have done some tweaking to make the toms sound better but besides that, they have been great
          This kit is totally worth the money for a beginner or a veteran.

          By david roof

          from Califronia

          Comments about Sound Percussion Pro 8-piece Double Bass Drum Set:

          Once again overall a great product, I liked that the set was complete. The only extras I needed to buy were the cymbals and a throne. I bought a Zildjen ZBT4 cymbal set and had Plenty of cymbal stands, even had an extra one to add a cowbell to the set. I was not thrilled with the snare which I have replaced, I play metal and it was a bit tinny sounding so I bought a Tama metalworks snare that I am much happier with. But great set for a beginner or for someone like me who is getting back into playing and wants a complete set.
          I hadnt played or owned a set in about 20 years and decided I wanted to get back into playing again and this set was perfect to start up again. I have added a better snare to it but other then that it is a great set.
          I have had no problems with the set at all.
          Just cant beat it for the price, great value

          Comments about Sound Percussion Pro 8-piece Double Bass Drum Set:

          The overall with the kit is that its a great deal i do recamend replacing the heads, beaters, and the weeker stand but other than that it is great.
          The shells and most hardware are good and sound but the heads two diffrent beaters and one cymbal stand are not so good i switched the heads over and got new beaters and had to replace the stand because the other broke but i play metal so i am agressave playing
          Have had the drum kit for over 3 years now and only had to replace the heads and beaters and a stand everything elce can hold up to just about annything
          Great price for the kit much better or beginners because you get 8 piecec wear others tou normaly ger 5 and its not doubble bass

          By Davey Ross

          from Cross Lake, MB

          Comments about Sound Percussion Pro 8-piece Double Bass Drum Set:

          I personally like the shells and harware. I only dislike the two different beaters, and the heads that come with the kit. I recommend getting new heads.Get whatever heads you like. I got Remo Black Suede coated heads on all toms. Remo Powerstroke 3 coated bass drum heads, and a Emperor X snare head. I recommend new pedals too. I recommend that beginners should get this kit! Rock on people! \m/ \m/
          This kit is awesome for begginers and some who have a slight drumming expierence! I've been playing drums for 2 months now. So please kids and new drummers, get this kit! \m/
          The quality of the shells are good. The hardware is nice and strong. The drum heads, not really good.
          This is a good price, for a brand that is not the best in the world!

          You'll need new kick pedals and drum heads.

          By Collin Jon

          from USA, WI

          Comments about Sound Percussion Pro 8-piece Double Bass Drum Set:

          Gorgeous kit, excellent hardware quality.


          Just keep in mind that the two single pedals it comes with are really cheap, AND have different batter-heads. Also, the drum heads aren't the best, you'll probably wanna upgrade those.

          Keep in mind that if you really do want a quality kit comparable to higher-end brands, you'll need:

          Zildjian/Sabian/Paiste/Meinl cymbal package
          Tama/Mapex/DW/PDP/Pearl/Gibraltar kick pedals
          Remo / Evans drum heads

          which means you're looking at an extra $400 - $600

          That being said, whether you plan on upgrading this beast to make it more beastly, or keeping the pedals and the heads the way they are, it's worth it.

          I'm a noob so for me this set is awesome. The toms sound fine...I thought it came with cymbals though but it didn't :/ oh well bought some Zildjian cymbals instead. The heads sound fine to me so idk why ppl say to replace them.
          Can't beat the sale price
