Our Army Reserve band used a Tama set for years, and it held up to all kinds of abuse, long trips packed under a bus, etc. I believe it was a Swingstar set, sounded pretty decent too. I like the Gretsch choice also the Maple set comes with a free 16X16 floor time free!! I would go and play them if you can and see which one appeals to you the most. That Tama set up sound pretty versatile, and with two bass drums that is a great price.
Gretsch Catalina Birch 6 piece fusion set (10,12,14,16in. Toms, 22 Bass). Sabian 20" HH Classic Ride, 16" Istanbul Agop Dark Crash, & Zildian K 13" Hi-hats.
