Hi,
I was looking to upgrade my old Catalina Ash drum kit to a Mapex Saturn V. Between the 2 configurations:
Fusion (https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mapex-Satu...182310793820?_trksid=p2385738.m4383.l4275.c10)
20"X16" Bass
10"x7" Tom
12"X8" Tom
14"X14" Floor Tom
Rock (https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mapex-Satu...011282&hash=item5204014b53:g:yl8AAOSwlv9aWlh1)
22"X18" Bass
10"x7" Tom
12"X8" Tom
16"X14" Floor Tom (I've seen 16x16 floor toms in some configurations)
Which do you think would be more versatile? Can the 20x16 bass drum and 14x14 floor tom of the fusion kit be used for louder situations? I believe the shell is made of Maple and Walnut so I'm not sure how big of a factor that would be.
I'm leaning towards the Fusion kit because of portability (carrying a 22x18 bass drum is not fun) but I'm afraid that it might not fare well in bigger and louder situations.
