collapse expand iconDescription

Second-rate gear only makes your drumming journey harder. The Pearl Roadshow is not a toy or a hand-me-down. It's a complete drum set package with everything you need to start your rhythmic journey to the big time. Here are some things to look for when buying your first drum kit; see for yourself how Roadshow stacks up:

The cymbals, hi-hat and snare stands should start with a strong and well-balanced tripod base. Double-braced legs and interlocking tilter adjustments are also vital for keeping all parts of the kit in place under the pressure of performance. Roadshow's included hardware package is second-to-none in its class. All stands are dual-reinforced, height- and angle-adjustable, and feature double-braced legs to withstand the pounding onslaught of the heavy-hitting drummer.

The snare drum is the voice of the drum set and captures everything from the loudest accents to the softest "ghost" notes. With a matching shell and finish, the Roadshow snare is full of attack and power, yet sensitive enough for drumming at any volume.

The bass drum is the tonal heartbeat of the drum set and should not only set the low-end pulse for the groove, but be a foundation for the rest of the complete drum setup. The Roadshow kick drum features an extended tension/tuning range for low, chest-thumping bass frequencies, and includes locking, slip-free feet (or "spurs"), and secure mounting for toms and accessories.

Roadshow's included cymbal set features a 16" brass crash/ride and a set of 14" brass/hybrid hats. Perfect for accents and timekeeping until an upgraded multi-cymbal setup is acquired.

    I was happy to get this kit at an affordable price. When I was 10 mins into playing I realized the cymbals were absolute garbage, they were mangled after an hour! I went into the Lynwood store and their clown manager said you bought it online, sorry we can't help you! Needs upgrades.

  • Excellent price and excellent drum set. My kid loved it

    Just turned 62 and have wanted to play drums since a kid. This is my first set and I love it. Bought it about 6 months ago. Added several Zildjian ZBT cymbals. Play along to mostly 60's and 70's rock at home. Also bought SPL muffle pads to save my marriage, and so far, no divorce papers. Since purchase, have played on demo sets at a couple Guitar Centers and this set sounds and feels comparable, if not better.

  • The Pearl Roadshow 5-piece Fusion Drum set has some drawback

    1st realize the specifications the floor tom is 14x14 not 16x16 the mounted toms are 10x7 and12x8 and the kick drum is only 20x16 which are for kids teenagers! with the roadshow you must upgrade all the drum heads immediately along with the cymbals and hi-hats,this is were you start incurring additional cost,I purchase PlanetZ Zildjian w/13 in hi-hats & 18 in crash/ride which I replace with a 20 in Zildjian/RR ZHT& 14 in Zildjian ZHT hi-hats and Remo Emperor heads which improved the sound tremendously. So be aware of these facts another $333.00 to improve your kit unless you just like sounding like garbage! u are going to need a crash cymbal also. For the price this is a great kit it just takes around 300 to 500.00 in upgrades but for a kit to start out with it's a win win for the buyer. also the hardware is great just check the cymbal stand for a sleeve!
