I said before, everything is very well built

They essentially work exactly as expected, and are surprisingly well built

(A chunk of the hi-hat cymbal has broken off, yet it still works as I have rotated it to strike a different area of it...and actually, it still registers perfectly, whereas the other cymbals don't.)PPS I might be striking the drums a little harder than most people might, maybe, but I have no way of comparing

The pedal feel amazing; great feedback and solid

Wow, 12 yr old and 9 yr old are having a blast with Rock Band 3

The kit is far better than the guitar hero kit, and still worth getting, even if it doesn't have the best quality it could have been given

The cymbals are of good quality, as is the rest of the set...besides throwing the kit off your roof I can't think of many other ways to easily break it

Don't worry the colors on the kit are normal.2

So far these have held up to the abuse a six and seven year old can dish out as well as a very enthusiastic boyfriend

Fairly easy assembly, about 30 minutes to an hour

So, i.e., the kit lasted just this long as far as being able to verify with the game whether or not I am drumming on time and/or on the right drums/cymbals.

this is just your regular drum set from rock band with 3 cymbals you can not adjust your drum pads like the older pro sets there getting cheaper every year you would be better to just find a rb2 drum set and add 3 cymbals yourself cause its nothing like the pro sets that were made previously them you could set the drums any way you liked so very sad

I already mentioned open/closed hi hats, also the drums and cymbals get louder as you hit them harder

But don't worry, these drums are of pretty high quality and to make a comparison, I would rate them as a step up from the RockBand stock drums
