Bangsar too far from BU

Hi guys~, imma new here, got 3-4 years of drumming experience. Although i stopped my drum music lessons, but i still play it casually or even improvise/learn myself. Haven't got my own drum set since parents dosent allow me, but not anymore, so wanna ask, since i don't have any experience for picking drum sets, how to choose a apropriate drum set? E.g The size for snare/cymbals/toms, the brands etc.? thanks in advance

i never own a drumset before as well bro, but if you ask me i would say it all depends on your situation and your personal preference. say,if you wanna pick between a cheap beginner set or high end pro set,it depends on what you wanna do with it. if for practice,cheap set is more suitable provided that you are a non-gigging/recording drummer, cuz you aren't gonna record the thing/take it to some gigs which at most time requires good sounding drums (high-end set).as for size of drums,it all depends on what kind of sound that you like.

my rm0.50

Guys, which is better for drums? Birch or maple? And why? Thanks

Depending on what sound u prefer... Maple is warmer...imho, others factor will influence the sound. Head, tuning, etc...

I see..but in your opinion, which one do u prefer? Birch or maple?

Do we need any particular qualifications?

I currently have a kit that has 2 layers of birch with maple in between

Between the two of them though, I love the sound of birch when it comes to rock, and maple when I'm playing lighter music. However, that's just MY preference. Everyone has their own taste

Favourite wood so far = Oak. xxD

birch is popular for rock
oak is $$$$$ - yamaha oak custom

Yup. HAHAHAHA! But the sound is just so powerful

1-2k ah? Need ask around for 2nd hand kit lorh.

Anyone interested in recording drums for a cover project I want to do soon? x)

I no recording Equipment. Not even a videocam.

am finding it, but wont be buying so soon, for now still air drumming or go to my friend's house use their kits
