Pearl president series

You guys are hilarious! Ruling out a kit because of the logo on the bass drum head. Now I’ve heard it all! 😂

I like the ripple finishes they have, they look and sound “vintage”, I like the option of the built in mufflers and the price I’m getting makes it a serious consideration. So does anyone actually play or own this kit, and can tell me it’s “road worthiness” and the general weight of the kit? I would plan on gigging with it.

Rest assured Pearl’s lines are built for “road worthiness” I wouldn’t expect these to be made out exclusively for basements and studios.

75th anniversary and hardware wise they went all in with this kit!

Shell wise with pheno shells known for cut and projection, and luan well that’s an open sound that can be tempered for studio work, so I’d say these are built for hauls.

If your worried about weight, I’d like to give them a look to have for myself, where is this deal is you speak of?
 
I know I’m in the minority but I love this pearl logo.

OK are these better than the Music City Masters Maple Session reserve?

I honestly don't know know but it would be hard to find a drumkit with a longer title than that!

I know it’s iconic but I hate the normal Pearl logo. So this is my preferred pearl
Logo now

Cool, so I comment on a hideous Pearl logo and you feel the need to childishly bring up Mapex to me because I own their drums? Do you think I own the company or something?

Nah, just putting my comment on what I think is hideous logo in response to your childish remark…

Nah, but it’s not fun to have a brand that you like being slugged upon does it?

What do I care? I didn't design the logo. Make fun of Mapex all you want, I didn't buy them to impress you with their logo.

I rule it out because 1) It's Pearl 2) I'm not interested in propping up a communist country's economy. 3) The tom arms 4) that crappy logo.
 
Yeah, I can't get on board with a kit thats basically an Export shell tarted-up in a nice dress. Not for that price anyway.
