Best drum sets for a beginner?

Question

I've never played drums, and frankly, I have no idea what to get! LOL.. Could someone please help me! I'm looking for something that's brand name and affordable. How about something under let's say $600. Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Get a 5 piece set. You can get some cheap ones off ebay.

Answer 2

Well if you want one that is good sounding and lasts quite well i would say to get a Pearl drum kit. Or find alternatives liek Ludwig or Sonor.

If you are looking for one to just practise on, go for any cheap one you can find around the net.

Answer 3

Check http://www.varietymusicalinstruments.com...  Not brand name, but definitely affordable.

Answer 5

you could get a used drum set when starting out

like pearl or ludwig

Answer 6

Pulse sucks. They have literally no resale value. I'd go with a bottom line tama or mapex. good luck.
