electric drums[views:1274][posts:8]______________________________ [Jul 31,2007 3:27pm - Yeti ""] i think there was already a thread about this, but i can't seem to find it, and yes i searched for it. i am extremely interested in learning how to play the drums, but unfortunately i live on the third floor of an apartment building so a traditional drumset is out of the question. i figure i can at least learn the fundamentals first on an electric. is there a good but fairly cheap one anyone can recommend? i've heard the name Roland mentioned before, but not a specific model. i'm willing to spend a little bit of money, not a ton but enough to get a good one. i figure they start out very basic, but can you buy more pieces to add on? any info anyone can provide would be most helpful. |

| ______________________________________ [Jul 31,2007 5:27pm - lbprovidence ""] I would suggest buying a real drumset and buying those practice pads to dull the sound. For the money you would spend on an electric drumset you could buy a very nice used set. And then when you learn to play you will already have a drumset to use and will be easier to find people to jam with. Plus, electric drumsets just arnt metal. |
