I’ve never been a huge fan of electronic drums in settings other than practice, until I saw the Pearl e-Pro Live drums. They are basically a kick butt electronic set that was designed to look like a real drum kit.
One of the cool things about the kit is that you can change out the heads with real drum heads and turn it into an acoustic set. Check out this video to see what the Pearl e-Pro Live kit has to offer.
The kit runs at $3199.99, so it does have a hefty price tag. Although it looks to be a pretty sweet electronic set. Check out more details at Music123 here.
