Ludwig Accent Combo 5 Piece Drum Set

So the shipping took about a week and I was provided a tracking number. I got them together the day they came. If you are new to drums remember there are no instructions with this set so find someone who plays or find some sort of manual. The drums are great. They have that beautiful Ludwig sound we all know and love. The set includes the following (if you bought the set with the comment saying"5pc. with cymbals"): 2 mounted toms, 1 floor tom, 1 snare drum, on bass drum, crash cymbal (sounds like a gong haha), hi-hat cymbal, a pair of sticks, and a throne. It also includes all hardware including pedals for the hi-hat and bass drum. The only problem with this set is the cymbals. They sound really odd and the hi-hat is really small. I would recommend buying different cymbals. If you are looking for a cheap and decent cymbal I would look at Zildjian's "Planet Z" cymbals which last awhile and sound good. I also recommend loosening the snare drum because it's a bit too rattle-y when it... Read more

I just bought this drum set, its sounds awesom. Im a beginner, but I have played in lots of drums. In my personal opinion this drum set by Ludwig sounds freakinn cool, just buy it, you wont regret it. Peace-

I am in 2 bands, a metal band and a punk band, and they both love my set. I have been playing drums 4 years before buying this set, rendering it a great kit for beginners, intermediates, and even the better drummers who cant afford much. My favorite part about the set is the ability to add to it. I have bought a 8x10 and a 10x10 add-on drum kit for the set and I bought an extra bass drum. For drummers who really want a big, expanded set for cheap prices, get this. The quality is THE best i have seen on a drumset of this price. My friend came over when I got it andthought that it was a maple set (for those who dont know, maple is the best quality wood you can get for drums)! If you're on a budget but want GREAT quality, BUY THIS DRUMSET.

I want a drum just like this and because I want to be in a band. Mom wouldn't let me have a drum and I need a drum set like it. Because I want to play my own songs and be a drummer.

This is a solid kit that will serve the beginning-to-intermediate drummer well. The hardware is solid and stable, and the tonal quality of each drum is excellent with minimal ringing. The two critical hardware features - hi-hat stand and bass pedal - are sufficient for beginning and intermediate drummers, but are a bit unresponsive for pros. To complete this kit I recommend getting good cymbals. Any of the following cymbal packs will give this kit all of the cymbal power most drummers will need at the same value point as the drum kit itself: Sabian B8 Performance Set With Bag (ASIN B0002L54TE), Paiste 302 Plus Standard Cymbal Set (ASIN B0002D0NU2), or the Zildjian ZBT Series Basic Set Up 4 Pack (ASIN B0002CZXXA). The best kept secret, though, is how easy it is to upgrade this kit to a professional quality kit that even a seasoned drummer will appreciate. Just replace the heads, which are OK for less experienced drummers, but too thin and unresponsive for professionals, with the... Read more
