Hello Guys, my name is Paul. I've been thinking of getting electronic set to practice on since my kit stays at my guitar players house. I might do a bit of recording with them also. These are the ones I've been looking at.
I haven't played these yet but I've been leaning toward these. I hear you can upgrade the heads and they are almost comparable to the Roland kit but IDK.

I did play these today. I was hoping I could load better samples in this kit but the guys at guitar center said you cant.

Guitar center had a 6 piece kit like this I played today and it sounded quite a bit better than the Simmons. The kit was the same price as this one 1799.99 I couldn't find it on the website. I could only find the 5 piece. IDK if they modified the floor model or what. I don't have the cash for it though.

So does anybody have the Alesis kit? Can I upgrade the Simmons to better sounds? How does the Alesis kit sound compared to the other two? I really wish I could of played the Alesis kit today to help with my decision. I want to get a 6 piece to keep it as close to my acoustic kit as possible.
Thanks, Paul
