    The sounds and feel of the TCS pads are amazing! The kit sounds are so real! I feel like a rock star on this thing! I compared the Roland TD27 and though it has a great hi hat, the Yamaha DTX8KX is ahead in many ways and comes as a complete kit. Unlike the TD27.

    What type of drum head is included? The description says " Dual-ply Mesh" but the pictures and title reference TCS heads.
