Hi Reaper,
I wanted an acoustic drum kit in high school, but my parents (understandably) wanted nothing to do with that in the house. My older brother had finally moved out (along with his years of playing electric guitar), so I was doomed in my request before I asked.
I’d much prefer an acoustic set, but I don’t have a place to set them up right now. The particular electronic kit I bought sounds pretty darn good. The mesh heads are actually pretty similar to an acoustic set. The feel of hitting the cymbals leaves something to be desired, but they still sound pretty good. Anyhow, best purchase I’ve made in a long time.
Heading to Vegas soon (without child) to celebrate birthdays. Maybe I’ll get lucky and strike it rich, but probably unlikely at the $5 video poker games I tend to play when I visit that town.
I’m with you with regards to what scares kids. I think it might be a little soon for my particular kid’s interests to get into DragonballZ, but I appreciate the idea. Will definitely keep it as an option in the not-too-distant future.
Be well!
