First, you must remember this drum costs about £140.
The finish on the shell is flawless and the hardware is high quality chrome, a standard well above the price point.
Sound wise it is great. I was after a snare that I could tune really high and for this, the snare is perfect. I stuck a Remo black dot single skin on it and the sound is really good and fits perfectly playing soul music.
A great value drum that performs well above its price.
