Ludwig Breakbeats by Questlove shell set, Azure Blue Sparkle

General

The Breakbeats by Questlove drum shell set is the result of a highly successful collaboration between Ludwig and Ahmir Questlove Thompson. This great sounding, professional, compact drum shell set is ideal for touring drummers. Don't fall into the trap of thinking that its smaller size means it isn't capable of producing a big sound. In fact, when amplified, it delivers exactly the same sort of performance as larger models. What's more, its compact size makes it suitable for drummers of all ages!

Even though the Breakbeats drum shell set doesn't come with hardware or cymbals, it has a fantastic sounding 16 x 14-inch bass drum with riser, a 10 x 7-inch tom that can sound jazzy or poppy, a 13 x 13-inch floor tom with a tightly focused balanced sound and a matching 14 x 5-inch wooden snare drum. The 7-ply hardwood shells have an Azure Blue Sparkle finish and feature transparent Remo Pinstripe drumheads.

Compact and lightweight

Questlove knows exactly what it's like to be an up-and-coming drummer in a big city where most people don't have enough space to accommodate a drum kit. Not only that, he knows that getting a kit to and from performances is never the easiest of tasks either. With the Breakbeats by Questlove, however, these issues are in the past. This shell set is so compact that it won't take up more than 1 seating space in your car! It'll fit in the boot of a taxi too and they're even light enough to take on the bus or train. Velvet storage bags are included for ease of transportation and to protect your drums from scratches, although you may wish to invest in a thicker set of bags for even more peace of mind. The included bags can also be used to dampen the drum's sounds when you're playing by simply placing them over the top.
