Sturdy Hardware - This kit comes with durable and sturdy hardware. The stands are double braced for stability but lightweight for ease of transport. The bass drum pedal has a chain drive between the foot board and the beater which has quicker response than a leather strap.
Rim-style Tom Mount System - Rack toms (the toms attached to the bass drum) are mounted using a tom suspension system. This means that instead of having holes drilled in the drum shells to mount the toms on the bass drum, toms are suspended from a mounting bracket attached to the rim of the tom. Fewer drill holes in the drum shells means more resonant and better sounding toms.
A Variety of Colors - Most drum sets in this price category offer one or two colors. Pulse Pro offers four colors: Blue, Silver, Wine Red and Black.
Steel Shell Snare Drum - The Pulse Pro drum sets feature a steel shell snare drum. This drum has superior tone and clarity when played at any volume.
Drumheads - To keep costs from getting too high, low quality drumheads are used on the Pulse Pro drum set. These heads will not last long and will not sound as good as name-brand heads, such as, Remo. The good news is that you can buy replacement heads when necessary.
This drum set is great for a beginner or a drummer on a budget. Pulse uses quality materials making the set well worth the price. This kit is professional sounding and looks great. It could be the last set you buy, regardless of your playing level!
