Everything You Need to Start Drumming

Get everything you need to start drumming in one complete package with Pearl's Roadshow 5-piece drum set. Formed from multiple plies of bonded hardwood, Roadshow drum shells feature 6-ply poplar shells for optimal tone, molded to fabricate a resonance chamber that projects powerfully when you strike the drumhead. A drum's bearing edge is where much of its tonal character begins, and Roadshow drums sport hand-cut 45-degree bearing edges that contact the head optimally for solid, punchy tone and easier tuning. This complete Pearl Roadshow kit includes drums, cymbals, hardware — and even sticks, and a stick bag — so you can get up and drumming right away.

High-impact kick and snare

Your bass drum is the heartbeat of your kit, setting the pulse for the groove. Indeed, the kick is the foundation for your entire drum set. Pearl's Roadshow bass drum gives you an extended tension/tuning range for low, chest-pounding bass frequencies, and includes locking, slip-free spurs and secure mounting for your toms and accessories. The Roadshow snare — the voice of your drum set — delivers everything from the loudest accents to the most delicate ghost notes. It's packed with power and attack yet sensitive enough for any musical genre, at any volume.

Quality hardware

Sweetwater drummers know that good, solid hardware makes life easier. The Pearl Roadshow 5-piece drum set comes with cymbal, hi-hat, and snare drum stands that provide a strong, balanced tripod base. These stands are adjustable for height and angle, and feature double-braced legs and interlocking tilter adjustments, so your drum set stays put during the intensities of live performance.

Pearl Roadshow 5-piece drum set Features:

  • Complete 5-piece drumset
  • Poplar shells put out an authoriative tone
  • 45° bearing edges for punchy tone and easier tuning
  • Included cymbals let you accent your sound
  • Ships with hardware, a throne, and two pairs of sticks

Customer service

I was looking for a drum ser for my grandson and was hesitant about ordering this on line, but since I am not getting out to shop I took a chance. Within one hour of placing my order I received a personal phone call acknowledging my order and when I could expect my order. I ordered on a Friday and it here by Tuesday. The drum set was packaged well and complete. A video was include via email on assembly. I was impressed. My grandson loves the perl drumset.

Great Gift!!

Bought this kit for my Grandson as a birthday present. He loves drums!! I am into "Pearl Kits" so I thought this would be a great start for him being his first kit. He's only 8 years old but plays like a seasoned drummer. He knows a little something about drums from me and loves his kit. He said it was the "Best Birthday Gift EVER!!!" After I paired it with a Zildjian S series cymbal pack, it sounds better than ever. Hats Off to Sweetwater!!!

You can't BEAT the quality, but you can beat the drums.

Packaged smartly. Assembly was easy. Videos for assembly, tuning and playing were excellent. Best choice for an amateur like myself who wants to improve his drumming.
