“As a drummer in 2 gigging bands, several praise bands, and for different artists throughout the year, I need a drum set that is very versatile. I play so many different genres of music [it] is really important to be able to quickly tune my drums and for them to stay in tune throughout the set.
Welch Tuning System Drums are a perfect solution. I can tune my toms up to a higher pitch for some songs, then tune the toms really low for other songs with just a few turns of the tuning knob. This way I get the perfect sound for every song. WTS is the most innovative drum set on the market and has taken away the dreaded long-tuning process for me. Now that I've played these drums, every other drum set seems sub-par.”
