For Sale
My lovely and superb sounding Pearl Vision (VBX) Six Piece Drum Kit complete with a matching set of Pearl 900 Series Hardware.
It's on a three day sale and priced low for a quick sale. These drums in this colour are quite rare at the moment so grab yourself a great kit at a great price!
To quote from Pearl's Website (www.pearldrum.com):
Vision Birch VBX 100% Birch Shell
Introducing the VBX, Pearl's most affordable 100% Birch drum set. Birch has long been recognized for its focused, naturally EQ'd sound, ideal for both stage and studio. VBX comes standard with professional Two Ply heads, a Steel SensiTone snare drum, and Award Winning 900 Series Hardware. These incredible sounding drums are offered in 6 exclusive High Gloss Lacquer Finishes.
The Drum Kit
The shells are 100% Birch (not the cheaper birch ply shells) and are finished in Clear Birch Lacquer (No.230 in Pearl's Catalogue) and the toms come with the Pearl I.S.S. mount and 900 tom holders for mounting off of the bass drum and a short 900 tom arm and multi-clamp for the 8" tom to mount off of the cymbal stand. The snare drum is a 14" x 5 1/2" Steel Sensitone (mirror chrome) and has hardly been used.
The toms and snare have brand new and never used Pearl twin-ply Pro-Tone heads on the batter side and Pearl branded heads single ply on the reverse side with the bass drum coming with a Pro-Tone twin ply batter and Black resonant logo head on the front, both complete with internal muffle rings to cut out overtones.
The hardware that comes with the kit is from the 900 Series and has double braced legs and memory locks fitted with the cymbal stands and Hi-Hat stand. There are also memory locks on all of the tom holders for both height and angle.

The package contains all the items as pictured as follows:
Drums: 22" x 18" Bass Drum 8" x 7" Tom Tom 10" x 8" Tom Tom 12" x 9" Tom Tom 16" x 16" Floor Tom 14" x 5 1/2" Steel Sensitone Snare Drum

As a bonus, if a winning bidder meets my "Buy It Now" price I will throw in three additional TH-900S tom holders that I have used with my Gibraltar Rack and that are also in excellent condition.
Condition
I have had these drums just under a year and therefore they are in fantastic condition with no rust or pitting on the chrome. The kit has been gigged a few times and always transported in Hardcase cases. However, I believe in being straight, there are a couple of minor dings in the lacquer mainly on the back (playing side) of the toms where the snare rim a touched but no scratches in the lacquer and certainly nothing visible from the audience side. These drums, tuned right, sound awesome and I've used both Remo Emperor clears and Remo Ambassador coated's on the toms and they've never let me down yet. The bass drum has got a great deal of punch and the kit, being birch shelled, has a lot of presence. It looks professional, sounds awesome and being from Pearl it will stand up to a lot of abuse. Why am I selling? I'm getting married in a few weeks time and I do have access to another kit.
