    Awesome Kit, I saw poison when you guys were in Perth, Australia back in 1987, it was my first ever concert. I was 12 years old. What a show!! I remember my ears were ringing the whole next day. Poison have been my favourite band ever since. God I hope you guys come back to Australia one day so I can relive the best concert I’ve ever been to.
    Keep up the awesome work legend 🤘

    Given a choice to go with a drum kit and price being no object I believe I’d go with Yamaha. That kit is awesome! Love the color. I would’ve gone Sabian but it’s hard to find their cymbal packs here u less I order them. I like to hear the cymbals prior to buying so I went with Zildjian K Sweets. Their packs were available where I am and I was also able to purchase extra crashes.

  • @TheREALJosephTurner
    @TheREALJosephTurner Год назад

    Can't go wrong with Yamaha. After having not even sitting behind a kit for well over a decade, I decided to look into entry-level kits for purely casual recreation. To my out-of shape ears, the Yamaha Stage Custom sounded like it was punching above it's price class (under $800 for a 5-piece shell kit, 6-ply birch and the YESS mounts), and the honey amber looked beautiful. Granted, you're probably not going to be headlining arenas with this particular kit, but it is certainly above expectations for casual playing, a new drummer's first kit, playing clubs, etc. Especially with the sound you get at this price point. Even more-so when you upgrade the heads.
