For anyone putting together an ideal drum set for less-than-ideal environments, Ludwig's Breakbeats 4-piece shell pack is perfect. Ludwig actually brought in the famous Roots drummer Questlove to help them create a compact set of drums that travel wonderfully and still pack more than enough punch to fill out the backbeat when you're playing tight clubs. With hardwood shells, Remo Pinstripe heads, and ingenious hardware, you'll feel right at home behind this set. Top it off with an included set of velvet gig bags, and you're ready to grab your Breakbeats drums and go.

Full-sized feel in a compact kit

The thing that makes Ludwig Breakbeats drums such a great solution for gigging drummers is that they don't feel restrictive. That's because these drums combine clever designs and full-sized heads to achieve the feel and sound of a full kit. When the drummers here at Music Experience got to check out this setup, one of the things that impressed us the most is the bass drum riser, which elevates the compact 16" bass drum so that it's the perfect height for your kick pedal.
