Did you mind on to buy the sticks?

[Mook1]

450 quid is decent for any full kit & a set of cymbals.

Is it a Pearl kit (can't quite make out the badges) & what make are the cymbals?

[rumnpepp]

The drums are mapex and the cymbals are pro sonic sabian he threw in a few extras stool cowbell sticks and a set of silencersor mufflers whatever they're called

Mapex kits are good, you've done pretty well there. My old ride cymbal cost nearly that amount just to put it in perspective.

Did you get him to watch the 'Animal vs Buddy Rich' video on Youtube yet? Must have inspired thousands of kids to pick up drumsticks that one...

[rumnpepp]

He's away on holiday today with ma lassie I'll get him to watch it when he gets back cheers.

Good tip is you can get drumsticks called 'hot rods' which are much lighter & quieter.

You can get them on Amazon or in most music shops.

Cheers I will does the length or weight of the stick depend on his age?

Not really, if you get him size 5B he'll be fine with those, really big heavy ones can be quite bad for your hands if you have bad technique.

I'm not sure about the sizes for hot rods tbh.

What age did you start playing the drums Mook???

[rumnpepp]

Cheers I'll do a bit research. I will never slag anyone who plays a musical instrument (even Skyless) I,ve tried it and it's hard as fk.

A great drummer said that drums was 'the easiest instrument to pick up, but the hardest to master'.

He had a point, watch a good jazz drummer & aw the drummer jokes are out the window. Well, apart from the heroin addiction ones :D

[rumnpepp]

Berty told me you can either play them or you canny.

He has a point, if you've got no sense of rhythm or coordination then you're never going to be a decent drummer whether you get lessons off Vinnie Colaiuta or not.

That's why people take up the guitar :D
