Well, I got the Remo kit and overall was very pleased. It is in excellent condition, but three of the pads were modified pretty heavily. On what I’m guess were intended to be the toms, the previous owner had drilled out and/or removed a lot of the plastic material from the bottom of the pads. My best guess is that this was to change the pitch of the pads a bit, to they would be more realistic to practice on. Who knows, though. They will still work well for their intended use, although on one pad it will be somewhat of an issue to attach the phono jack, as there was so much material removed.
