Pearl Roadshow 18 Bronze Metallic + Solar Sabian - 5 shells - bronze metallic

Pearl batteries have always been a safe bet for beginners. The new Roadshow drums are no exception. Solid, well-finished and affordable, they're perfect for learning drums in the right conditions.

Consistently meticulous design.
Pearl has always been one of the leading manufacturers in the entry-level market, with well-designed products designed to offer maximum performance at minimum cost. A case in point is the 6-ply, 7mm-thick poplar barrel with impeccable rhodoïd, available in three colors for the Roadshow. The "bronze metallic" color combines the sobriety and timeless elegance of shiny black, while the Pearl fittings display their noble credentials. All this is backed by a reputation for solidity that extends to the entry-level range. Spikes, rods, shells and hoops are all there, as is the timbre release. Everything has been designed to last, even under the sticks of beginners who don't always get it right.

A very convincing sound.
For their little ones, parents are generally looking for solidity, so they don't have to go to the after-sales service every morning. As for drummers, whether young or more seasoned, they want to be able to start having fun, if possible with a big sound. Drums that respond well, consistent diameters, a bit of depth for the bass drum, a 14 x 5.5 inch snare drum so you can tune and hit like the big boys do... That's exactly what the Roadshow offers, with its 18", 10", 12" and 14" configurations for teenagers keen to reproduce their idols' pop-rock patterns as quickly as possible.

Ready to play!
The great thing about this kit is that it's all you need to get started! Drums, double-base accessories (also considered to offer very good value in a competitive market), seat, Solar Sabian cymbals (14" hi-hats and a 16" crash/ride to help you get your bearings), and even a bag with sticks... All included. So, honestly, at that price, you'd think today's youngsters would be so lucky!
