It's a great drum. Very vercital. It's great for low volume situations. It's is easy to mount to any hardware around drumkit or percussion kit. You can't go wrong with Lp percussion. Simply the best.

I bought this to add as a snare for my cajone kit. Great little drum!!! It has a great pop to it that definitely cuts through. It also works very well as a tom!!!! I can definitely see me adding this to my big acoustic kit. Great versatile drum. Heads were good for me. I actually broke a set of Pro Mark Lightning Rods while using this drum the 1st time and the head was great. Think I'm gonna get the 6" as well. Overall great drum!!!!!
