Evans G2 Fusion Drum Head Pack

As notably one of the best drum heads around, the G2 fusion head sports a two-ply drum skin (7mil each) featuring extraordinary consistency and durability. Evans G2 drum heads offer the perfect blend of depth, sustain, and attack. It makes small toms sing and floor toms growl. G2 drum heads have been a consistent leader in the Rock drumming arena. Little less resonance than the G1 series drum head, but delivers a powerful sound.

Rating:
Evans G2 drum heads have become one of the most popular heads around. These 2 ply drum heads allow for stronger, harder playing suitable for rock. Sound is less open but gives a powerful punch. Highly recommended.

Sabian HHX Evolution Ride Cymbal

Crisp attack and warm undertones combine in a shimmering ride with crash capability. 20″ diameter. Great for Fusion, Jazz or Rock drumming. Gives a crisp sound.

Rating:
I personally use this cymbal mainly for fusion and jazz drumming. Sabian makes great cymbals and when they paired up with Dave Weckl on this series they really made a winner. The entire line has a brilliant finish and beautiful tones. The bell has a nice crisp ring to it which almost sounds like an icebell when hit giving the drummer a nice tone for those heavier grooves.

Yamaha Stage Custom Nouveau 5 Piece Fusion Drum Set

The Yamaha Stage Custom Nouveau 5-Piece Fusion Drum Set is a great set for many types of drumming genres . The shells are high quality, and the kit includes Nouveau lugs that are attached to the shell by fiber-reinforced composite bolts at 2 points by a unique floating design that reduces vibration damping. Rack toms are Yamaha’s Enhanced Sustain System (YESS) mounting system that allows attachment of the drum to the tom holder without the need of a hole in the drum shell for the rod to pass through. Good stuff for keeping the sound truer. The ball-clamp triple tom holder gives total freedom in positioning and superior stability. The bass drum includes matching wood hoops and heavy duty hexagonal bass drum spurs.

Set Includes: wood snare with Nouveau lugs. 8-ply birch (outer ply), Philippine mahogany, and falkata shell. YESS tom mounts on all toms. Air Seal System shells. 1.6mm triple-flange steel hoops. Nouveau lug design. Matching wood bass hoops. Sturdy hexagonal bass spurs. 22" x 17" bass drum. 10" x 8" and 12" x 9" toms. 16" x 16" floor tom. 5-1/2" x 14" wood snare. 2-CS745 cymbal holders. HS740 hi-hat stand. SS740 snare stand. FP7210 bass" pedal. TH945A tom holder.

Yamaha makes quality drumsets and have been doing it for a long time. They create many orchestra instruments as well and you can tell they keep quality running at maximum on all of the different lines of instruments. I’ve played on Yamahas before and love the sound of these drumsets. They have great attack and resonate very well. The shells are very strong. This particular set is a good introductory set for the first time player as well as a seasoned vet. The natural wood is a thing of beauty on Yamaha instruments and drums.
