Mapex MK1432DP Snare drum / bell kit with rolling case

An excellent kit for the aspiring percussionist! This package includes:

• 32-note 2 1/2 Octave Bell Set
• 14 x 3.5 10-lug Snare Drum
• Adjustable stand with tops for holding the snare drum, bell set, or practice pad
• Easy-rolling cart
• Two pairs of Mapex drum sticks

I listed the overall condition as "Very Good." The case shows significant signs of wear but is still fully functional and rolls well. Please see photos. The instruments inside are in excellent condition with minimal signs of wear. The snare has its original heads. The batter head looks almost new. The resonant head has some indentations where the snare wires have been pressed into the surface, but still sounds great.

Regarding the snare, I tuned it up and was pleasantly surprised at the sound. See the video below. It is very responsive with a pleasing tone. This could certainly serve as a starting snare for a drum set if needed. Getting a 10-lug snare at this price point is pretty impressive.

Note: As new this kit would have included a pair of mallets and a sheet music holder. These items are no longer present, which is reflected in the price.
