I've had a Yamaha electronic kit for the past few years. I'm finally ready to get a new acoustic kit. I need some flexibility to create different types of kits for different situations, so I was going to go 10/12/13/14/16/22.
I definitely want to go with Ludwig, but I'm having trouble deciding which series to buy.
Originally, I was intrigued by the (not yet shipping) Neusonic drums. The price is great, but, the more I look at it, the less I like it.
I started to look at the Keystone X series. It would cost me about $700 more than the Neusonics to buy all six drums. I spoke with a friend; he owns at least six different Ludwig kits. He has a Keystone and told me that it is not as versatile as the classic maple series. Mostly, it's just too in your face loud. He's only used his twice.
I hadn't considered classic maple. I know it will cost me a lot more.
What are your thoughts? Is classic maple worth the additional cost? This will more than likely be the last set I purchase.
