Check mo yung mga hardware sir lalo na yung mga lugs at tension rods. Mas maganda kung madali ka makakahanap ng mga ka match ng bibilin mo since 2nd hand sila. In my experience hindi mo maiiwasan na kalwangin yung mga hardware, when its time to replace them ang hirap maghanap ng parts. Go for the one na madali makahanap ng replacement parts.

I'd say sir, go for the fernando. The middle level kits of fernando are actually not bad, hardware quality is decent. Good heads lang katapat mo. :)

Reliability wise sir, go for the GIBRALTAR.

If you have a higher budget range, go for the PEARL (but it's all in all the same if you ask me)

If you have a low budget, you can try creating your own with Pipes and Clamps from the hardware store. there's a thread here regarding that DIY Project. Just use the search button :D

hope this helps! :D

Hello Brother, you have the TRAPS Drumset being distributed by lyric. SO far siya yung alam kong pinakamalapit sa Pearl RT Series (i.e., portable, mas maliit, etc)

You can also opt for a jungle kit para mas madaling hanapin :D

Hope this helps!

Sir, best cymbal bags I've seen are the MEINL Cymbal Bag and the STAGG Cymbal Bag. lahat naman sir almost the same, pero try to consider these items when buying a cymbal bag:

1. May dividers ba per cymbal? (meaning, hindi magkakadikit ang cymbals sa loob ng bag?)
2. Matibay ba ang material na ginamit?
3. Matibay ba ang moving parts ng bag? (I.e. ZIPPERS, Handles)
4. Water repellant ba ang material na ginamit?
5. Makapal ba ang padding nung bag itself?
6. Kasya ba lahat ng cymbals ko?
7. Kasya ba ang width ng cymbals ko?

yan yung mga tinitingnan ko when I purchase cases for my babies. kung bibili ka lang kasi ng bag, might as well yung magtatagal na :)

BTW, I'm using a STAGG Cymbal bag. 22", heavily padded, decent moving parts, nylon, with dividers and a separate pocket for smaller cymbals like splashes and hihats.

question lang po about sa stagg cymbals. very interested po ako sa stagg as so far nakarinig po ako ng stagg cymbals and yes maganda nga sila at mura pa. pero dahil sa nasanay ako sa zildjian and sabian na merong ZBT and B8 (entry level cymabls) meron din bang ganito ang stagg? pumunta kasi ako sa website nila eh pero hindi naka specify kung anong cymbal line up ung entry ung sa pro. or baka nagkakamali ako at lahat sila pang pro na at nag iiba na lang para sa ibat ibang genre? thanks po  :)

Hello Sir!

Regarding stagg cymbals, as far as I know, wala silang model na made out of B8 bronze like ZBT and B8. Usually lahat ng models nila made off B20 Bronze. pero that does not mean na dahil B20 Bronze na siya, eh pro level na siya. the SH Models of stagg are meant for intermediate players as far as I recall. yung mga MYRA nila yung pang professional level.

But then again, there's no such thing as Professional or beginner cymbals. if you like what you hear, and you can afford it, BUY IT! :) hope this helps brother. :)
