I`ve been playing drums for a while and I`m thinking about getting my own drumset. I`m wondering if electric drumsets are worth their "fakeness" because they`re cheap-....er.

electrics are more expensive
i prefer non electric, but if electric is the way u wanna go, then go for it, all drummer have their own opinions and styles. just go to a music store that has display drumsets, and try em both, see wat feels better

um...I meant the drumsets that have pad thingies on them.They`re cheaper. I need another answer now

wat do u mean? u mean they just have pads on em?
or practice drumsets?
or electric, like u have wires on it and stuff, u can turn up and down the volume.

i can talk to u on AIM or msn if u have it

do u mean like yamaha dd 55 or a yamaha dd35 like those if so i have one they are good to practice on but not all the time.i also have an acoustic set

i hav the regular set up it works nice but my friend has the electric drumset and she says u dont get as good of tone and te cymbals sound really fake if ur talkin lik practice padding on ur set the it depends on how aggrssive u r i hav 2 tape mine down

They are nice but I think that the sound is kinda non drum sound.

I think you should have both. If I were to get one it'd be just for when I can't practice because my parents are asleep or something. Otherwise, I would go acoustic, because you can get a ton more sounds out of the drum. (rim shot/clicks, tips of sticks, control of dynamics, etc.)
