Cymbals and hardware not included
i was a bit skeptical when buying these just because the brand is pretty new compared to the top dogs in the game (yamaha, gretsch, dw, etc) pork pie has been know to be best at rock music... i haven't seen anyone use them for jazz etc. but i have to say, the kick gives you the right thump (factory heads).. snare is okay but that's probably because of the head... and toms are incredible!
Well, much like everyone else, my Little squealer has problems detuning. However, I've owned the kit for a little over six months now, and this hasn't created too much of a problem. Its usually just one lug on each drum that comes loose, which is a drag, but if you get lug locks or the like, problem solved. I talked to the guys at Pork Pie about this problem (much to dismay, it wasn't something "wrong" enough with the drum to get it replaced), and they said to get lug locks. Aside from this, the kit is pretty good. The floor tom sounds wonderful with a powerstroke 4 on it. Earth-shattering is how i would describe it. The Bass sounds pretty good with the stock powerstroke 3, but throw an EMAD on there and you'll be set. The snare is the best part of the kit, it really cuts but can also have a softer side, or a real fat sound. The rack tom can be a disappointment. While its fine for playing rock or hardcore music, its not so great for quieter music. It sounds fine tuned low, but tuning it high can be a disaster. Anyway, a great kit overall; looks great, sounds great, and is decent.I will recomend everyone to try it.
If you love to play, this is the set to get. Incredible feel, i couldnt believe it. sound is amazing. it would go nicely with the little squealer!!
