Once these drums are tuned up properly, you will be surprised by how focused and punchy they sound.

I’ve used this kit for many gigs in the past, and it’s incredible how the drum set and all of the hardware fits securely in the two protective bags you get when buying the kit. Poplar is a more common wood that has a balanced tone, while mersawa is less commonly seen but is quite musical. Poplar and mersawa drums are harder to tune than maple and birch, meaning you’ll need to take more time to get them to sound good. Shell Sizes The Compact Traveler add-on tom is also available in 10'' size. Both drums can be stored in the Compact Traveler add-on tom bag, an essential item if you're travelling with this kit!

Tech Specs

Most drum kits are made from particular woods that have been layered to create the shell. Some have a single wood type, while others mix them to achieve unique sounds.

The Pearl Compact Traveler kit is one of the smallest drum kits reviewed. It is designed with performance in mind, and this mini drum kit produces surprisingly full sounds. In addition to being easily transportable, I loved how these shallow shells produced a full and fast tone that was super punchy.
