hey im fixing to buy a ddrum defiant 7 piece off of musicians friend who by the way is a great site, and its made out of basswood. I tested a basswood set at guitar center and it sounds just like a maple set. But i would like to hear from someone who has experience with this set please, what do u think of it?

Hey!
I made a thread with the same question when I was interested with that set.
Maybe it will answer your question.
Heres the link:DDrum defiant 7-piece
How long have you been drumming?
But personally, I would go With something from Gretsch, but if you think it sounds good to you, get it. It's your kit. Good Luck!

ive been drummin for about 4 years and i know this isnt as good as a birch kit or anything but im on a budget and with good heads i think that basswood wont sound that much different than maple but im just guessin from other sets that i have tried, im lookin for a 100% description on this set from people who own this kit preferably or if you have played this kit before

If you are looking for maple, consider the cheaper alternatives. I'm personally looking at the Sonor 3007 and pearl vmx for maple.

I also find that poplar is more like Maple than Basswood.

Hey if you play it and love it, then go for it. Personally I find basswood to be too dull sounding, not enough mid and high tones.
