If u don't want to spend big bucks on some 16 or 18 bass drum that u will probably use once or twice a year, this is the perfect solution for you. Easy, quick and sturdy, the materials will not let you down, and in my humble opinion, Pearl is the best hardware manufacturer, as i have "used and abused" nearly all brands of hardware, and Pearl is the most enduring and stronger brand, yet easy and quick to setup, in the market.
