As a proud owner of this kit and by this kit, I don’t mean “this” kit, I mean this kit that I ordered through DCP, I can’t say enough great things about it. This kit sounds amazing and is surprisingly comfortable to play. Plus, Shane and his crew are incredible to work with!
Great job on the vid Shane!! And thanks again for the Sneak Peak!!!
Cheers all!
You also have the option, with a kit like that, to have multiple setups depending on what type of band you are playing with. At least two different kits and take your kick and snare with you. Home set. Practice set. ??? Unlimited.
I like more toms no matter what music you play it can work if your a more choice drummer
It's that "round" tone that great instruments have. Whether guitar, violin, drums etc....That roundness translates throughout dynamic levels and notes "bloom" off the instrument. And you never really know what that's like until you play an instrument that has that quality.
And here I was thinking the Masterworks Stadium shells were my dream kit. Guess the waters are muddy all over again! What a fabulous sound!
When I hit the lottery I’ll own a set of masterworks.
They sound perfect
Same
Stop playing the lottery and save up instead!
I'm a Ludwig guy.... But if I ever cheat on them, I'm banging these. Absolutely beautiful. Good job guys
Shane so perfectly summed himself up. "IF I play very very quietly" vs "WHEN I hit it very hard" In seriousness, it doesn't seem like you can make it sound bad.
Shows how wood, steel and plastic become art piece in the skilled hands. That's one stunning drum kit, sonically and visually 👍
Best sounding kit I’ve ever heard besides SQ2
I have an SQ1 and these Pearl's are right there with them. Absolutely amazing flow of sound
Even not being able to hear it in person, it sure sounds sweet!
Beautiful tonality sound at just the right damping.
The piano reference was perfect because as soon as the drums started to be played, the word that popped in my head was how "melodic" they sounded. And that snare cut like glass. Hard to believe it was only 5.5 deep. Amazing sounding drums.
With the gum shell, Pearl is one the best, ....and their snare sound amazing too !
they should have added 18 floor as well... but damn, didnt know 6 inch tom exists
Sounds great. Thank you for focusing on the toms.
Another dream kit.
My goodness almighty…THIS is insane!! DCP = Top Notch 💯
-Indiana Love! 🥁🥁🥁
Todd is RIDICULOUSLY pro, and this kit is pure class and craftsmanship!
I am not a drummer! I love your videos being a drums fan.. This, by far, is the best sounding and the most musical kit I've heard on the web! Great job. Thanks! Subscribed!!
Thanks so much for the kind words and the sub!!
I absolutely love Pearl drums and all of the videos Shane and his crew does.
that's nice to hear. thank you!
Wow 👌 👏 😍 👍 they sound as good as they look!
Wow what a kit!…and yet another fantastic video! 😎👍🏻
it has a very musical sound. very impressive. yes triple flange hoops on drums to my taste, extract the most sound from drums. it is wide open full tone.
Excellent demo/review. Beautiful kit
Magnificnet.
I live for these intros 😂😂. The drums are pretty amazing too
Glad you like them!
Spectacularly beautiful drum set. This is one of your best videos.
What a musical kit! Just a pure note from every drum at every dynamic! I play a much smaller setup ( played bigger many years ago) but I definitely appreciate what that kit with that sound could inspire me to do!
The drums and the cymbals are killer!!
What a beautiful kit!
proof that Gretsch had the recipe down since the 60's. it just works!!! Not that others don't, but the combo of (musical wood)/gum, is incredibly even more musical!!
Wow!!! Yeah, I'm not a wood/gold type either, BUT..... I AM a fan of Pearl drums, and these are some of the most MUSICAL drums I've heard. Todd would sound great on buckets, but clearly, he knows his drums. Yeah, I'd hit that! 😁😉
This kit is the DEFINITION of musical SHEESH
Amazing video for an amazing set of drums and cymbals. Great performance by the drummers as well
Amazing Kit top Sound
Dudes thank you for being one of the few for using sabian. Most channels use Meinl or zildjan. But you’re right the HHX complex line up are amazing. I do not have any buyers remorse. Those pearl master works look and sound amazing 🤘🔥
The drums sounded good and also the cymbals I like the lower pitch crash
The nicest pieces of this kit are the cymbals
Truely a beautiful set. One I can only dream of
Damn. Great sounding drums.
I love how TODD’s set is racked! The set sounds amazing!!
Kit sounds fantastic my Guy
Nice full, round tone...And easy on the eyes.
Clean was the exact, first, and only word that came to mind for probably a good minute. It was pretty stunning. 😳 Very impressive.
Sounds incredibly good
That finish is really stunning
Sounds absolutely beautiful!
It sure does!
Beautiful kit. My SQ2's were nervous for a few seconds.
Incredible sounding drums. I know exactly what you mean about playing a piano and how high quality drums sound, definitely a good comparison. Very cool to see and hear that kit! I'll have to drop in and see it in person!
I’ve played pearl drums for 🤔forty two years now, my current set is nearly twenty years old. Maybe I’m due for a serious upgrade? Beautiful drum set!
New drums can really re-inspire your playing!
Great playing, Shane! Those toms sound out of this world. On another note, you and Todd have always reminded me of each other, which is really cool and, in the case of this video, kind of fitting.
They sound beautiful! I want one!
Sounds amazing
Excellent review! I love the stadium config more and also the Reference Pure shells.
… but that finish is just stunning!
The high toms sound so great, which is not an easy thing to accomplish!
That is one musical kit. Cheers!
I have the Pearl Masters Maple/Gum (this formula with cast hoops) in Aged Honeyburst on order from DCP. Can't wait! What heads are on this kit? May have to give the triple flanged hoops a try! Shout out to Joe Mazza, he is the best!
Beautiful kit, excellent drumming and these guys always seem to make me laugh. Love the videos. I can only imagine what a work day must be like with these guys lol.
I'm stunned at the fundamental deep note of that 8" tom. I thought the 8" was actually a 10", till he told us the sizes. I love that, because, (as a side note) it opens up the ergonomics if you can get small drums to sound that deep. That kit sounds absolutely beautiful. I'll never be able to afford a set, of those... I'll have to settle for an MCT (which is a GREAT sounding maple kit). It's fun to listen to these guys do a solid demo of these, given they're the only channel I know of that's doing thorough demo's of high-end kits. That never get's old. Well done guys! P.S. I completely agree on those Artisan cymbals. 👍
Pearl drums has the beast sounding 8" toms ever
oooo these drums sound amazing
Nice round warm sound and Pearl of course willing to do a 6 inch tom unlike many of the other companies.
One of the best sounding kits I've ever heard. 99% of other kits don't even come close!
The drums sound outrageous...
insane is the word
My preferred sizes are 10 x 13 & 12 x 15 rack toms, 16 x 16 & 16 x 18 floors with legs, 18 x 22 kick....I own a Pearl EXR series component kit I got in 2006 with 11 x 13 & 14 x 15 rack toms,16 x 16 & 16 x 18 floors,18 x 22 kick.....I love over-sized drums for that big 80's rock sound & look...I love it
SHANE, BUDDY!!!!!!! RELAX!!!!
You my drumming brother, are a phenomenal drummer, having proved it time and again!!! Just look at the "DCP drum sales" promo videos you have made already!!!!! Yes sirree!!! A GORGEOUS DRUM SET INDEED, AND "furniture" quality it is!!! The "STIENWAY" of drum sets for sure, but here's the thing... in fact, that is all it is, a drum set!!! And while it is beautiful, nothing you can't handle...... SO, C'MON... JUST PLAY AWAY DUDE!!!! Pearl MW's & Sabian HHX's, a grandslam homerun, and your the batter to knock it outta the park!!!!!!!
ANYWAY, KEEP ON KEEPING ON BROTHER DRUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PEACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤘🏼
P.ost S.cript....... 😆 Yer funny guys up there in Porstmouth...🤫
... that two second blurb of "M¿. R0b¤+@," and my disguising it in writing.... SHOULD KEEP "Den....," ummm.... what's his name from getting too upset!!🤬 !! 🤔 !! (..... whistling that veryyyyyyy tune while walking away I am!!!!! 👌🏽 )
Trolls prob have everyone a bit on edge these days. Way of the world I guess. Solid drummers doing solid demos here. But if it’s not a virtuoso performance they’ll have something to say despite the fact that the point of this is to simply demo the tone of drums.
@@larrytate1657 And demoing quite nicely at that!!! A hiccup or two... NO BIG DEAL!!! Although, You're right about "Trevor The Fremont Troll(s") giving one of the "Billy Goat Gruff(s") some shite about the demo, and the "professional nature" of skill shown... NO WORRIES Lad, b'cuz I still say Well done you, to any man who sits behind not only the drum kit for demo purposes, but the cameras too!! It can be a bit overwhelming at times, I have been playing for the better part of fifty plus years, and I still get butterflies and a bit of anxiety when playing, especially in front of huge crowds of concert goers, or new faces in studio!! But Larry, the very words I said to Shane, I say to meself, "just play, and lay it out there!!" The hours of every practice session, the real blood ( spotted left pant leg,) sweat ( wristbands ) and aching body all come together as one... ANDDDD, then it is so. Done, finally, and we made it through, to drum another day!!!
Although, I can't imagine what the anxiety of the "Trevor trolls" cause, my performances are almost completely "live" for many, or in front of small groups of people in "studio," but either way, I generally don't hear their harsh comments!! Ok.... in studio, every once in a while a smart arse producer or engineer may say something when I have an "off day" or until the human "machine" in me kicks in... AND THEN... I throw down the traditional grip and my best "Moller technique" at them on EVERY SINGLE PIECE OF THE DRUM SET, while doing my best Buddy Rich moves... that generally shuts them up, and yet I can still see their faces while still having to work with them!!! Demoing drums, or a Theremin while being captured on video to be watched time and again, and their ability as "Trolls" to hide behind the internet, certainly makes it easier for them to do that!!! F'em... just keep on being you... that's the important thing, to hell with them!!!!!
BECAUSE EITHER WAY, YOU'VE GOT THIS!!!!!! 🤘🏼
You guy's nailed it again. Just awesome video. I would like for you to put up the specs on this entire set, as you have it here. Especially the snare drum. Are those ordinary Remo Ambassadors throughout? Thanks again for keeping all of us on the edge of our seat with delite.
This kit is like a work of art, you could look at it (and play it) all day. Beautiful. Love the 6” tom, I thought only Nicko McBrain was the only drummer to use this size now?
6” Tom’s aren’t in mass production because they are the most impractical drum size. Don’t get me wrong though. I’m a prog drummer and want one but they are hard to find because not enough people want them so it’s not worth the money to mass produce them. Especially when concert toms and rocket toms/octobons are options
Mike Mangini also used a 6 inch tom and plays Pearl
Great video and absolutely sick kit! Congratulations guys! I love my Wood Fiberglass :)
superb
This is a beautiful set of drums. I would buy them IF they had a bass drum mount.
AND A 13" DRUM
Pearl + Sabian × [ insert name here ] = Bliss !
i tink it's the best sounding kit i ever heard. tuned to perfection.
Loved the video, as always. Your sound engineering is off the charts, this is studio quality (and not all studios sound this good).
And sure, the kit is a piece of art. Almost as beautiful as the Starclassic Maple you featured a while back (the one in Natural Pacific Walnut Burst). But it's an unfair comparison, that kit is unbeatable :)
Thank you!!
Awesomeee!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🔥
I need now in my collection I have 14 pearl kits one more wouldn’t hurt 🤣😍🥁
It would be an excellent center piece to a collection!
Got to be a $12.500.00 kit....really amazing!
If I ordered something like this, I’d get rid of the 6 and 8 and add an 18ft. Sounds killer guys.
18 feet? Is that diameter or depth? Either way, that's huge!
@@markkeneson6806 😄
@@markkeneson6806 haha! Both
Excellent demo of this kit. Do you find it better to use those DM-20’s on a mic stand or was that just for this particular kit?
WOW WOW !!!
Pearl Masters Custom (Early 2000s) & birch (Late 1990s): Love the sensitivity & unique tonal ring; reckon they lack depth though not a sore point comparative to precise quality sound with the perfect dampened sustain (may be my ears or iPhone!). My preference was the older mahogany masters or DW Collectors, neither available at the time (little Australia!). Cheers for the ex vid.
P.S. Artisans are superb, my choice is 1990s K Customs. Thanks guys. 😺🥁
Well, if I knew you guys existed and were willing to help put together my drum set, I would have happily taken advantage of the help. I had limited access to what was available, there was no place for me to hear drums outside the polished company videos. I needed help.
It was insane I had money in hand ready to spend and nobody wanted to help me. I managed to piece meal my stuff in to place and I do like it. I just wonder if I would have made different decisions if I had some help figuring out what all I needed to create my vision. The drum buying process was a nightmare.
One of the best sounding kits I’ve ever heard in the full mix but oddly in the room mic mode they seemed a bit dry on resonance compared to some other high end kits in room mic mode. Very punchy which I loved though. def an amazing kit overall I would be happy to own.
Maple ~ Gum shell composition. Yup! they sound dry. Stay away from these drums if that's not your thing. These drums are basically Gretsch knockoffs.
sounds unrreal for me, perfection, really round, and musical, perfect beautifull tone, perfect pitch with full body, sounds really really similar to gavin harrison maple sq2, that tom sound....., is really amazing.
Woooo Weeee I've always been a Pearl Man and goodness be, if that isn't one helluva kit.
What an amazing sounding kit. Your videos are so extremely helpful. I can’t wait to make the drive to your shop some day.
Do you have a video anywhere that describes the mic preamps and processing you use to get such fantastic sound on these videos? I know you regularly list the mics.
Thanks Kirt! We don't have a video on that at this time, we may in the future though!
Thanks for the kind words! You can email directly if you want some details on the recording path, tony@drumcenternh.com
I also am interested in this as a recording engineer myself. The Earthworks mics sound incredibly natural and realistic. Your audio actually comes out better on CZcams than most pro studio stuff. I’d love to see a video of how you do your eq and dynamics processing. Very tasteful and professional. A+++
@@TimMilliken thank you, that is a huge compliment!!
I like how you guys tuned the snare. What did you do?
In my experience Pearl shells sound the "best" with triple flanged hoops.
if i was looking to upgrade from my Vintage Pearl Fiberglass shell drums this would be the kit
maple gum great combo, Gretsch does it for a long time
That kit looks insane man shit nice how much for shell pac ? I probably don't have enough for it but asking feels good
They look amazing. Sound amazing. To me, its t room mics that really shows t diff on t sound quality of a kit. Question...how long does it take u guys to do a complete set-up, including mics, with a kit like this? Love your vids. If I ever get back to t US, I'm def coming to visit u guys. Thanks 🍻✌️🇦🇺
I think this took about 12 hours to unbox, set up, tune and mic up in total. But, we're also doing a hundred other things while running the shop, so it's about 3-4 days, realtime.
Thanks for watching, hope you can make the trip someday!
@@adamfrost3722 holy smokes! I wasn't expecting that time frame. That's a true journey of love. Thanks Adam.
@@woody4269 yeah it takes a while, with a kit like this there is so much to get right. I won’t even get started on how I time aligned the tom mics to the overheads while mixing…
Love the thick bass drum sound. Sounds like you used low tuning on this kit. I would like to hear this kit tuned up higher with some clear heads. Thanks for your great videos!
thanks for watching, Scott!
Amazing sound. How many microphones did you use?
I gotta make another trip up there lmao
This is probably one of, if not, the greatest sounding drums out there
Interesting sound. I have mostly played Pearls for years, so it's familiar in a way, but the gum changes it... mellows and rounds it out. I would have chosen a more traditional 8, 10, 12, 13, 16, 18, 22 in maple, bit it's nice.
What kind of drum rack you using
how much is this beautiful kit I wanna buy it
Very nice kit indeed. Sounds nicer with the snares turned off. I wish there was a way to remove all sympathetic buzz while still having an articulate snare playability.
Yeah that's just a part of drums being drums, they interact with one another.
@@drumcenternh I agree with that, but I'm happier with little to none when it comes to unwanted buzz. Keep up with those great videos!
