Pearl drum kits have always been a reliable choice for beginners. The new Roadshow series is no exception. Solid, well finished, and affordable, they are perfect for learning drums under good conditions.
Consistently careful design.
For years, Pearl has been one of the manufacturers dominating the entry-level market, with products always very well thought out to offer the maximum at a minimum price. This is evidenced by these shells which total 6 plies of poplar for a thickness of 7 mm, with impeccable Rhodoid offered in three colors. In this case, the "charcoal metallic" combines rarity and elegance. As for the hardware, Pearl always displays its pedigree, with a reputation for durability that also applies to its entry-level kits. Spurs, rods, lugs, and hoops are never missing, as is the snare strainer. Everything has been designed to last, including under the sticks of beginners who do not necessarily have the right technique.
A very convincing sound.
When it comes to beginners, especially children, parents generally demand durability so they don’t have to contact customer service every other day. Drummers, whether young or more experienced, want to start with real feel. Responsive shells, coherent diameters, some depth for the bass drum, a 14 x 5.5 inch snare so you can tune and hit like the pros... This is exactly what the Pearl Roadshow offers, this 22, 10, 12, and 16-inch configuration which proves perfect for a teenager seeking versatility, or for an adult wanting to play fusion style.
Ready to play!
The really nice thing about this kit is that nothing is missing to start having fun! The shells, double-braced accessories as well as an additional boom stand (also considered to offer very good value for money in a competitive market), the throne, Solar Sabian cymbals (hi-hats, a ride, and a crash that will help you find your bearings), and even the bag with the sticks... Everything is provided. This kit also offers, in addition to the standard version, a B-50 boom stand and an extra ride cymbal to get the perfect kit for starting drums. Honestly, at this price, you have to admit that today’s young people are really lucky!
