Yes that's what I thought, coming from a 22 to a 16 would've been a bit drastic. I managed to find a set on eBay used for the same price as the BreakBeats so went for it :) Any recommendations on...

Just bought them - Catalina Club Jazz.

Thanks, just bought it.

Hi all,

Looking to replace my Mapex V Series with a Catalina Club. Would it be worth it sound wise? The mahogany shells are a good sign.

Anyone have any experience with the Catalina Clubs? Mahogany shells.

The V Series is categorised more as a "traditional rock" kit, however my tastes have changed to more of an R&B/Funk style. I'm looking for a drier, deeper sound and from what I've heard the...

Yes, a high mid and floor with a Ludwig Acrolite snare.

I believe these are the sizes:

18" x 22" bass
8" x 10" and 9" x 12" toms
16" x 16" floor tom
5-1/2" x 14" wood snare

OK, obviously the only issue is that I'll have a mismatching set but I can look past it. I do like the idea of having a small set, something easy to play..

Thanks! Any Mapex kits with particularly shallow toms?

Well the same price as the Breakbeats really, which is £240. Comes with everything including travel bags, pretty much brand new. Any suggestions?

So there's no difference in sound quality? Any recommendations on new toms?

I can't really vertical tom my V Series because they're too deep.

Hi all,

I bought a Yamaha KP65 trigger and all the screws that support the bottom of the unit have disappeared. Does anyone know where I can buy replacement screws?
