Millenium Rookie E-Drum Set

Les + :
- matériaux solides
- montage facile
- module pratique et intuitif
- baguettes fournies avec
- pads en mesh solide

Les - :
- cymbales en plastique rigide très bruyant
- peu de sons
- des options dans le module tres dispensables (les chansons pre enregistrées sont anecdotiques)
- pas de fauteuil
- réglage laborieux via un système de vis/clefs
- positionnement de la charley et de la caisse claire à revoir et peu pratique
- une fois installée, difficile a transporter sans tout démonter
- LE POINT NOIR : les fixations sont tellement cheap qu’il vous faudra constamment resserrer les vis sinon les pads finissent invariablement par bouger. Irritant, injouable et vraiment mal pensé.
Au final, un kit pour débutants tres abordable.
Le module aurait pu doubler le nombre de sons présents et les cymbales auraient pu être moins bruyantes.
Mais c’est un rapport qualité / prix tres raisonnable.

We bought the Rookie drum set for our son’s birthday last year at his request. He has an intellectual disability and loves dabbling with musical instruments. We are still amazed by how much he loves this kit. He plays it several times a day for anything up to half an hour at a time. The mesh heads provide a reasonably realistic feel and are quieter than rubber pads when headphones are in use. As usual the package arrived within a week of ordering. I assembled the kit and as a non drummer I found it very easy to put together. If you’re considering this kit it’s worth bearing in mind that it’s not very big so pay attention to the dimensions. The small size means it fits easily into a standard room but if the child has any height at all s/he may find it too small. Having said that our son is in his teens and he has learned enough and practises enough to warrant investing in a bigger kit so it really is a great place to start. 15 months after purchase the three cymbals have stopped working. Thomann are as impressive as ever with their customer service and three new cymbals are on the way after just a couple of emails. The three year warranty is a great addition to the Thomann customer service. If you’re looking for an entry level kit for your child you won’t go wrong with this. The price is competitive and the quality is as good as the customer service. We’re already window shopping the Millennium range for the next drum kit, that’s how happy we are. We have the kit connected to a small spare amp we had for daytime playing and a set of over ear headphones for night and early morning. It really does do a great job.
