View Full Version : Don't give in to keeping a piece of crap replacement...

My drums would not sync out of the box so I put in a replacement request on 11/21...took until 12/3 to get a replacement...replacement drum pads were super loose and you could tell they were previously owned and had been pulled off...even the directional pad did not respond to half of my presses...since this was the first actual drum set I got to play though, I wasn't sure how the drums were supposed to play...

Well, yellow would only register half of the hits and the other pads missed hits at times too...thankfully since it took two weeks for the first one to ship, I had requested a second replacement on 11/30 and that came today...NIGHT AND DAY difference...this one looked brand new and had different poles...drum pads were solid and sat much closer to the sensors...all hits and rolls register...so there are good drum kits out there...now of course I have no idea if they will hold up but damn that first replacement was a used POS that didn't even get tested/refurbed as far as I could tell...

Same thing with the guitar...first replacement had a crappy upstrum...second one came today as well and although it feels a little loose, it registers all strums (for now)...
