GD-5 Drum Kit by Gear4music, 5 Piece, SILVER

Everything You Need To Get Rocking

The GD-5 comes packaged in one large box; simple to unpack set-up and play. It includes everything a budding drummer needs with three toms, a snare drum, bass drum, cymbal stand, hi-hat stand, drum stool, bass drum pedal, pair of 14" hi-hat cymbals, crash/ride cymbal, a pair of 5B sticks and a full set of drum heads.

Deep Tone & Robust Construction

The drum shells are 5-ply and made from a blend of select hardwoods, covered with sturdy single wrap finishes. This is a strong wood which creates deep tones perfect for rock and metal. The tom-toms are great for dynamic drum fills, while the lathed steel cymbals are ideal for handling crashes and chokes. Play the 16" crash/ride cymbal gently, and it produces sustain and shimmer ideal for quiet passages. Play harder, and you have all the rasp and attack needed for a driving rock chorus. The 14" hi-hat cymbals will help you nail down a tempo, and their crisp sound makes them ideal for accents and syncopated beats.

Robust, double braced stands ensure your kit will stay in place while you jam. Their pressed steel claws are shaped for extra strength and bass drum support, and together with the comfortable drum stool leave you free to concentrate on rocking out.

Press Reviews

This pack was reviewed by Music Radar - a leading online publication for musicians.

"For a kit aimed at the beginner, the quality of the hardware is good, featuring double-bracing on the hi-hat, cymbal stand and snare stand."
"...eight lugs per head should allow the [bass] drum to be tuned more evenly and, as result, may mean a better sounding kick."
"With some of the usual dampening in-place, the kit sounds remarkably good...even the 16" crash/ride and hi-hats prove to be quite acceptable."

"On the key question of 'is it good value for money?' The answer on this occasion is a resounding 'yes it is'! The overall standard of build, finish and sound makes this kit very good value. The hi-hat stand has an internally mounted centre pull-spring tilt mechanism and a very good clutch assembly."

"The kit is full of pleasant surprises, such as the double-chain bass pedal, which provides a smooth and responsive action. Overall this kit sounds really very good." Performing Musician Magazine (Formerly Music Mart)
