Brands to look for when shopping for a Percussion kit (PLEASE NOTE: this list does NOT contain all brands of Percussion makers, this list consists of brands that a few of us directors have worked with and have personal experience with. If you are considering Percussion that has a brand that is not on this list, contact your director, or even better, contact your local instrument repair tech and see if its a brand that can be worked on)
Brands we have had success with Yamaha Ludwig Jupiter Pearl
