What color should I wrap this thing? Drop a comment and like!

*Gets in truck to drive BACK to David’s place and steal this kit

😢 the little kit is growing uo so fast....

Dave should definitely bring back the dollar store drummer series.

What happened to the snare? It sounded better in the other videos

Print out stupid and nonsensical comments and wrap the kit with them.

I thought David was giant for a second there...

I think it's time for some real snare wires lol

Reminds me of your “10 more drumhacks” video with the kick drum ending up on the other side of the room😂

David you really do make anything sound good. Huge fan of the channel! Keep it going!

You should make this a series. This is awesome man

Great job! These little kids drum sets can be made to sound amazing.

3 things rdavidr loves 1: drums 2: lofi 3: wood And that’s why he’s my favorite person to watch on KZfaq

Great upload...that rack tom sounds surprisingly good!

Been playin my lil blue kids kit i snagged for 13 bucks at savers (snare, tom, kick and even the floor tom) for a couple years now, still get weird looks and even the occasional "wheres the rest of the kit?" Questions, but for the convenience, savings and playability after getting new heads it becomes a keeper for sure!

Love the idea of the kid's kit, sounds so sweet

Yes, the kick sounds better! I like the video of your choosing where to drill, mount, etc. Thank you!

I have a similarly sized kit for my daughter but I need to do something similar to this for the kit. I bought her one of those $30 Chinese popcorn snares so if I can make the kick sound full and functional it will make a pretty legit setup.

Pink glitter wrap!!! It pays homage to its OGness, and everyone needs a pink glitter set. Admittedly, I may be alone on this.

Sounds great! Seems fun to play

I have a Ludwig Questlove set. I love it, since it makes a good travel kit. It's a fun little kit to play, but it has a few minor issues. Watching you work on this little kit might help me fix them. Thank you. I like the pink a lot. If I rewrap my sunlite kit, I might do that pink, or purple...maybe jellybean both kits...

Ever considering trying out the 16” EMAD on it? I have that exact baby kit, and also converted the bass drum for small gigs and stuff. With a new reso head and an EMAD on it, it sounds killer! Love your videos David!

Those Pearl adapter kits are the best. I have that very same one on a 16” FT conversion I use for small, restaurant gigs where volume is a concern. I call it my “Foot Tom”. Great stuff here, Sir!

I see you playing Blood and Thunder 💪🏼

I love your videos!!! Greetings from Nicaragua!!!

Hey, I just heard the Coop3rdrumm3r collab, you killed it! And i loved the bathroom clip

Im from Indonesia, love your drum chanel sir 👍👍

just bought the same exact set at a garage sale for $7 for my little sister so i could teach her to play. thanks for all the ideas to make it sound better!!!

that kick has such a poppy but low sound i love it so much

MAKE A DRUMSET OUT OF PVC

That’s awesome. Yellow wrap.

Great Job brother 👍👍👍👍

David , You strike me as a guy that would be a good father and a very patient drum instructor for your child!!!

VANTABLACK!!

Sounds amazing. I actually got rid of a kids set because I didn't think it would have the potential of multiple sized kids being able to enjoy it. Had been focused on maybe something with a bigger small kick, like an 18 or 20. But that 16 sounds perfect for practice at home, or even a small gig.

Flames

I. Want. THAT. Kit! ...That kick drum friggin punches like a Beast! Tiny drum kit, HUGE DEEP Sound!!! :D

Love the improved Bass drum, sounds really good. Now I am motivated to make my 16" floor tom into a Bass. I think you should wrap it in something Fun, Kid ish !! It is a drum kit for Kids....

Hey! I've been a fan of your channel for a couple of months now, and I really enjoy all your builds and good information you like to share. I JUST noticed you're in RVA! Do you ever have fan meet ups or gig around the city? Thank you for your excellent content!

Would be great to see you make a hip gig type kit out of this, all nesting in the BD, and mounting both toms and snare off of the bass drum. The ultimate travel rig for tiny venues. Wrap it in something classy like a WMP or a black glitter.

Sounds nice.

i would love to see you building a 13" Floor for the kit :D

love it

Hi Radvidr, This gave me a lot of information to set up my nephew's Junior kit. Your channel is informative and inspiring, especially with low-budget wanna-be drummers like me.

Awwww maannn!! I was really hoping you were going to make your own version of the Pearl kit. That’s what I hav been working because I already have a set of bass drum legs 🙁

Nice video, David R can you do a Snare Button Hoop with whatever hoop like a tom? i need this and idont know how a can do this!!

One more mod you can do to the bass drum....since its so small, you could attach a couple of internal mufflers (one on each end). That and burying the beater will probably give you a sufficiently dry enough bass drum (since the front head is vented, which helps a lot in drying out a bass drum) that you can probably pull that towel out of the bass drum and realize a much "larger" and even more impressive sounding bass drum.

Can you do a review on the griffin piccolo snare please

I just love cymbals.

Good work you are so smart ;)

ATTN: SNARE FIX!!!! Strap the fixed end of the snare between the rim and head. Spread the two strap ends so they straddle the lug and fab simple clamps buy cheap snare clamps and just go minimalist on the clamp. All you need is something that won't slip between the rim and head. Conceptually think eyelet on a guitar string but a clamp. The adjuster side will be a standard adaptation taking an angle grinder and slotting the rim and you know how to mount the tensioner, so take it from there! Actually you could use a metal strap on the fixed side and weld some cleats on it. As long as you sand everything real smooth so there's no burrs or edges that can compromise the head, you should be good!

So glad you painted that tom bro. Could used a little more sanding and painting but overall... 10/10!! 👍😁🥁

Sky blue pearl from ludwig, amazing color!

Great stuff‼️Use those tom mount holes for a cowbell mount⁉️✌️🇦🇺

Same color as your stickers, that’s like your trade mark color. If you don’t know what I’m getting at it’s the light green color. I personally found that color to fit you very well and I also thought it would be cool to have a small kit like that👍🏼

Classic blue oyster Ludwig wrapping 🙌🏽

Hi Dave! You should do a video about a cheap way to convert a floor tom into a bass drum! That would be fun!

You should add snares to the snare it sounds like a Tom

If you thought he looked like a giant... Well he looks like one!! This kit sounds really good!

Good Job !! 😱 ☕

When are you going to re-wrap this kit? I can't wait to see that

@rdavidr you should also leak the insides of the shells, I usually do a few coats of linseed oil. Really darkens the tone!

Oyster wrap! Classy sh*t 👌

Rewrap this soon also get a mead for the kick drum. I’m pro Reno on everything but I have a kit just like this and put a emad on total game changer

The kit sound really good for What it’s worth and fixing it made it way better. I think you should either color it blue or grey make it match with your drum kit :p

can you recording this drums with a subkick microphone?

now please do it with a ludwig junior kit with the bass drum riser it was my initial plan but i dont know how to do it because their legs are too difficult to DIY so im not too sure it'll be really helpful thank you! awesome content

Is it weird I want to hear some blast beats on that snare? 😂

Have you wrapped the baby kit? I saw a matte black kick with a small red matte stripe about an inch from the front of it the other day that looked so bad ass. The baby kit would look awesome with that. Yours sounds amazing.

You should wrap it in something old school, like old school 1970s van/ roller skating rink style, with stripes and stuff, it would give it a retro hot wheelish vibe

the kick looks like my floor tom

Kit sounds good, but that snare is awful dude. Are you going to put an actual snare and strainer on it?

Anyone who thinks this kit doesn't sound amazing is probably still drinking the tonewood marketing Koolaide. All logical people know that drum shells don't matter. Drums are just two heads vibrating together. #staywoke Also never mind the fact that my channel shows that I own a Sonor Maple drum kit.

Why does this sound better than the regular sized kit I already have

You should do a vlog of you taking this to a gig

Play a show with it. I would love to see how it sounds in the context of a band

Set questlove 🔥

Damn I actually like that wrap

cant believe you got a kids drumkit to sound pretty darn good!!! the bass drum does sound better due to the bass drum lifter....resonates better as well...

Keith Moon’s Pictures of Lily wrap.

I have one in black. I got rid of the toms. I use a 12" rack tom on a snare stand and a14" floor tom. I use hoop mounted spurs with a Gibraltar riser. I want to replace the metal bass drum hoops with wood hoops.

You should wrap the drum set in an orange sparkle so it keeps some of the qualities of the original wrap and it would look better on a stage/ in a video. Also the orange sparkle wrap it should look like is the orange sparkle wrap on the Tama superstar classic drum set.

This is what I need. Is there a bass drum lift that clamps on to the bass drum, instead of having to permanently attach parts?

Can you do a tuning video?

Nice to see Lars let you borrow his st anger snare

Saw both you and Stephen on coop3rs colab

Could you make a kit with two 16" kicks?

Hey rdavidr, what are some of the songs you play to? Really inspired by your skills and I your videos are awesome mate. First video I watched from you in Dollar Tree haha

How did you line up the leg brackets

*GALAXY-COLORED DRUM KIT*

do a slime green color. I've been wanting to rewrap my set in a neon green color.

Was the snares turned off cause when I had that set my snare didn’t sound like that

What is the name of the curtains that you are using as acoustic protection?

See if you can get a sponsorship from Goodhertz to do a demo of this kit with their Vulf compressor plugin.

Wrap it in a Twister game mat. It's a kid's kit, why not use a kid's game?

Wow, the floor tom is lower than the kick. Louder too. The whole kit sounds very . . . . well, Latin.

I have a kit with a 14" kick and love coming up with new ideas for easier transport, versatility, hardware hacks, etc. I'm not sure about collaborating, but if you ever need anything to do with mini kits, let me know!

High pitched toms I can accept but that over tightened kids snare. Maybe as a side snare. But not the main snare

Wrap It metallic silver like an old vintage slingerland kit. Or a dark wood color like an old Rogers kit.

I really liked the snare in this video. No idea what the others are talking about lol.
