Description

Breakbeats was created specifically for situations where a conventional full-size drum kit simply takes up too much room. The 16″ bass drum sits on a riser to provide a comfortable pedal position and produces a surprisingly strong low-end punch, while the compact 10″ rack tom and 13″ floor tom provide focused, musical tones. A full-size 14″ x 5″ matching wood snare gives the kit a versatile centrepiece with enough presence for rehearsals, recording and live performances.

The 7-ply hardwood shells are designed to retain the response and tonal versatility of a larger acoustic kit despite their compact dimensions. Precision 45-degree bearing edges promote clean head seating, resonance and a broad tuning range, while updated Evolution hardware includes a Vibra-Band rack tom suspension system and Evolution floor tom brackets. Cast bass drum hoop claws add further durability to a kit designed to be packed up, transported and played regularly.

Please note this is a shell pack only – the pictured cymbals and hardware are not included.
