  • I have passed the bug to my 8year old son who starts lessons next week.

    Does anyone have my leads for a good quality small second hand kit?

    Not necessarily a junior kit, just something scalled down.
    Thinking 10inch toms, 18inch bass drum, 12 inch hats.

    Basically a Richard Spaven kind of set up.

    Anything about?

  • i’ve had good experiences with Graham Russell Drums in the past, and they have this second-hand 3-piece shall pack at the mo:

    obvs becomes more expensive once you’ve factored in snare/hardware/cymbals.

    otherwise trawling ebay and the fb drum groups possibly your best bet.

  • I sold my kit to drumshack, they sell second hand stuff.

    eBay will be cheaper if you can handle more faff. Catalina club kits / jazz club kits are your friend. 18" bass drum is a great shout also, I love mine.

  • Facebook marketplace is good if you can face it as well. Good call going for a "proper" kit off the bat I reckon. I started playing when I was a similar age and got fed up of the kids kit quite quickly.
