The best reason for an electronic kit.

This is a great e-kit. I've always played acoustic (35 years) and have been wanting something that I could haul in one load. This is it. Initial set-up was easy, the instructions are very clear. After playing for a couple of hours, I folded it up in a couple of minutes (once again, great instructions), and tucked it away. The sound module is great, you can make any or all of the 25 kits into whatever you want, then restore any or all to factory settings. After a few weeks of experimenting I'll have a few custom kits that suit my special needs as well as a great straight up five piece rock set. This is a top notch kit for a small price. My only wish is: mesh heads. The snare pad is upgrade-able according to Roland. I bet the toms are as well, but they'll only be single trigger, not head / rim. My hat is off to Sweetwater as well. They were awaiting their first shipment from Roland on Saturday, I was playing mine on Tuesday. They even sent some candy for my son. Thanks. I guess the PDX-6 snare pad and the carry bag will be my next purchases. Of course I'll get them from Sweetwater!

My new travel buddy

I ordered this kit knowing that I will be living in a dorm room for college next year. In my personal opinion I cannot think of another electric kit that can fold down for storage and transportation quite like this particular one can. I would say the rack is pretty sturdy and this kit weighed a bit more than initially expected. The rubber pads actually play better than I expected and I enjoy actually having a real kick pedal with a beater. The cymbals work pretty well, just wish they were a bit more adjustable. On my acoustic kit my ride is where the second rack tom would usually go so the ride position is something I will have to get used to on this kit. After having my first late night full band practice tonight I was really impressed with how well this kit performed and I would definitely recommend this kit to anyone.
