If you've decided to take up drumming, but you don't want to spend several thousand dollars on a professional drum set, you can go the discount drum set route. Thee are brand-name starter drum sets available for under $500, as well as no so well known brands for even less. Just keep in mind that a brand name set may come with a better warranty and be easier to upgrade or sell.
The best place to start checking for a discounted set of drums is on the Internet. There are several sites that sell discounted drum sets at great prices. A set should include drums, cymbals, sticks and hardware. You'll also find great buys through mail-order houses. Look in music stores, music magazines or check bulletin boards in your local music shop. You'll probably see some great buys.
When you go to purchase a discounted drum set look for quality. There are a few reputable brands that are worth mentioning like Union, TKO Percussion, Sunlite, Drum Workshop, Ludwig, Paiste, Sabian, Zildjian, Kaces, SKB and Evans.
The other way to go to purchase drums at discounted prices is to pick up a used set. However, there are some points to check up before you purchase drums that have been used. You must make sure that the shells are round and have no cracks. The rims and hoops should not have any dents and should be perfectly round. Lugs and tension rods should be tight and there should be none missing.
Make sure the stands and brackets are intact and hold their position, and make sure that the bass pedal is working. You will save money buying a used set, but like anything else used, you want something that is in good working order. If you don?t know that much about drums, take along someone who does before you purchase a used set.
