User questions & answers

Question:	Does it come with all the necessary washers, felts and screws
Answer:	No. this is a cymbal pack only. You will have to visit a music store to get the necessary hardware.
Question:	What is the dimension of the box
Answer:	I personally don't have the box anymore brother, sorry. Maybe someone else can help. God Bless
Question:	What is the alloy ? are there bronze alloy b
Answer:	MS63 brass alloy (63% copper, 37% zinc)
Question:	Does it come with all the necessary washers, felts and screws
Answer:	No, they do not. But don't let that sway you away from these cymbals. I bought them for my kit at church and honestly, they sound like cymbals costing $100's of dollars each. I was amazed at the hi-hats. The sound was so musical when open and crisp when closed. Haven't downloaded any lessons as yet. Sticks are good to go. I don't think you can go wrong with these.

The memory you'll never forget

This is the sweetest moment of all. The first time you sit down at a drum set is nothing short of life-changing. It's the kind of experience that stays with you forever, and it's no wonder why.

The way the hihats open and close, the fortress of toms and cymbals—it's mind opening, especially for young players. In this moment, your set has to feel just right.

Meinl HCS cymbals are crafted to deliver crystal clear sounds with major advantages that put you steps ahead. Here's how.

Hihat cymbals: the #1 most important cymbals for ANY drum set

If you're ready to play but don't have much direction or influence yet, you are going to want to begin with hihat cymbals. Hihats, along with bass and snare drum, form the most basic time-keeping "ingredients" needed for drum set playing. Hihats are a pair of cymbals mounted on a pedal activated stand that brings them in contact with each other (imagine a "chick" sound).

Meinl HCS hihats (sold as a pair) are specially weighted so the bottom cymbal is slightly heavier than the top cymbal.

Why does this matter?

Having the weight arranged this way enhances the crisp "chick" sound the hihats create while giving them a better feel. Look for the "top" and "bottom" stamps to know which goes where on your stand.

Available in 13" - 15" sizes for the most common personal preferences.

The ride cymbal: from jazz to rock, this cymbal is essential for playing any style of music

The ride cymbal is as important of a time-keeper cymbal as hihats (think of a "ping" sound), and it's often used with hihats to form a basic, starter cymbal set. Ride cymbals typically range from 20" - 22" in diameter, making them the largest cymbal in most setups.

When you're ready to add a ride to your set, we have a few options to carefully consider.

Our standard 20" ride is, by far, the most common type of ride cymbal and will perfectly suit any drummer. With its clean, bright sound and cutting bell (the raised cup in the center), the Meinl HCS ride fits all styles.

Our ride is also available as a 22" for players who prefer larger cymbals.

Crash/rides are also very popular, and we have models available in 18" and 20". This cymbal is a hybrid of a crash cymbal and a ride if you're looking to cover these sounds with one cymbal.

Crash cymbals: build your own unique setup or match your favorite pro

Crashes provide punch, flair, accents, energy, crescendos—you name it. In their most basic form, crash cymbals emphasize the first beat of a measure. They are struck with a glancing blow toward the edge together with a bass drum note. They're also great for playing big, rolling crescendos at the end of a song.

Meinl HCS crashes deliver a bold attack with a balanced sustain (ring), and their response fits with any volume level. Our standard crashes come in 14" - 18" sizes to accommodate any setup or style.

Most professionals have more than one crash in their kit for extra sound options, and HCS crashes come in a variety of sizes and sounds. Smaller HCS crash cymbals give you a high-pitched sound, while our larger crashes deliver a longer sustain with a lower pitch.

Personal preference will help you decide the right size and amount of crashes in your set, but having at least one crash with a hihat and ride is widely considered a basic "complete" set of cymbals.

Splash and effects cymbals: complex sounds outside the standard

HCS splash cymbals are great for adding flashes of cymbal sound where you want a quick response that fades away fast. These come in 8", 10" and 12" sizes.

One of our most popular effects cymbals is our trash crash. This crash cymbal features specially cut-out holes that increase trashiness and "dry" the cymbal out, meaning it reduces the ring. Available in 16" and 18" sizes. Trashy refers to a cymbal sound that is earthy, gritty and dirty.

The most common effects cymbal is the china. This cymbal features an upward facing lip around the edge that gives it a unique gong-like sound. HCS chinas range from 12" - 18".

Next, we have our trash stacks. These cymbals come in pairs and feature hole cut-outs for a sloshy effect when you stack them together on your stand. Great for power and energy. Sizes range from 12" - 16".

Finally, the HCS 8" bell is a great accompaniment to any kit with its ultra-long sustaining ring.

Product description

Pearl, the world's largest drum manufacturer, proudly presents new Roadshow Series.

THE RHYTHM IS IN YOU! The right gear is essential for setting it free. No toys or hand-me-downs; a new, complete drum set package with everything you need to start your rhythmic journey to the big time.

Pearl Roadshow drums are built with 9 ply 7mm Poplar shells and 1.2mm triple flanged hoops.  Comes with heads and double braced hardware.  Each set includes maple drumsticks and professional stick bag.

Here are some things to look for when buying your first drum kit; see for yourself how Roadshow stacks up:

Hardware

Cymbal, hi-hat, and snare drum stands should start with a strong and well-balanced tripod base. Double-braced legs and interlocking tilter adjustments are also vital for keeping all parts of the kit in place under the pressure of performance. ROADSHOW’s included hardware package is second-to-none in its class. All stands are dual-reinforced, height and angle adjustable, and feature double-braced legs to withstand the pounding onslaught of the heavy-hitting drummer.

Snare Drum

The Snare Drum is the voice of the drum set and captures everything from the loudest accents to the softest “ghost” notes. With a matching shell and finish, the ROADSHOW snare is full of attack and power, yet sensitive enough for drumming at any volume.

Bass Drum

The bass drum is the tonal heartbeat of the drum set and should not only set the low-end pulse for the groove, but be a foundation for the rest of the complete drum set-up. The ROADSHOW kick drum features an extended tension/tuning range for low, chest-thumping bass frequencies, and includes locking, slip-free feet (or ‘spurs’), and secure mounting for toms and accessories.

Cymbals

ROADSHOW’s included cymbal set features a 16” brass crash/ ride and a set of 14” brass/hybrid hats. Perfect for accents and timekeeping until an upgraded multi-cymbal set-up is acquired.

• Ready to rock right out of the box!
• 9 ply, 7mm Poplar Shells & 1.2mm Triple Flanged hoops. Comes with Heads and Double Braced Hardware.
• Drums Included: 22x16 Bass Drum, 1x8 Tom, 12x9 Tom, 16x16 Floor Tom, 14x5.5 Snare Drum

User questions & answers

Question:	Does it come with the cymbles
Answer:	it comes with 1 = 16 inch ride and a 14 inch high hat
Question:	Would this Pearl Roadshow kit be considered too small for an adult
Answer:	I bought the fusion kit. Has a 22 inch bass drum, not an 18...
Question:	Does it come with everything it shiws
Answer:	Yes, it is supposed to come with everything shows even including a drum stool. However, we had trouble for the shipment from Amazon. The drum set is in two boxes. Amazon only shipped one box. After talking to the CSR, they cancelled the order and picked up the second and replaced the order. But the second time, it came with another box instead of 2. We had to cancel too. In the end we decided to buy from a local store for the identical set.
Question:	does this come with a throne or should i buy one
Answer:	It does not come with a throne

User questions & answers

Question:	How much does this cymbal stand really weigh? i looked under product information and it says the weight is only 2.2 lbs. is that correct
Answer:	Look... This is an inexpensive stand for lighter weight cymbals. Younger drummers use rack systems to avoid using stands altogether. Just use it for it's purpose so weight is not an issue. I have had mine for years and years; i use it for an inverted rezo and it holds up well. I have it up high as well and still it does not fly off the stand. I hope this helps....
Question:	Does the boom arm fit back into the stand on the BC
Answer:	Yes, boom arm will go back into stand.
Question:	Will a 20" ride work good with this stand
Answer:	It works fine with my 21" A Sweet Ride
Question:	Can I mount a 12 inch tom on it
Answer:	No, this is a CYMBAL stand. There are no clamps to hold a tom on here.
