price range.
practising at home as the different between electric drums and real ones was so night and day.
The new Roland TD-1KV looks good and seems to be getting good reviews.
It's £471 quid but there might be some offers going as Christmas and the new year approach.
It may be worth spending a bit extra to get something decent.
The beauty is - if you've got a laptop/PC you can eventually get a program like BFD3 and get some incredible sounds from the kit. So if you like the e-kit the next upgrade I'd suggest is getting a drum program, I've yet to hear an electric kit that has sounds as good as the best drum VSTs.
An acoustic kit will feel and perform differently, but may not be practical.
I hadn't realised how many close neighbours I had... until the first weekend after I bought an acoustic kit... and on that weekend most of them turned up on my doorstep... to complain about the noise!
Even the best electronic kits can't produce the subtle nuances that can be achieved from an acoustic kit... but acoustic drums can be mega loud (and not very practical).
