Question: Which drum kit is better, a Ludwig Rocker from the 1990s or a Sonor Jazz Fusion Force 3001!?
I ask this because there are two people selling two drum kits, and I was wondering which one would be the better buy!. The Ludwig Rocker is $400 and comes with your standard 5 drums, a hi hat stand, 2 boom stands, a straight cymbal stand, 1 clamp on cymbal stand, double bass pedals, and bags for the drums!. The Sonor drums is $350 and comes only with the five drums and no cymbal stands!. Neither kit comes with cymbals!.
I'm leaning towards the Ludwig because of all the sweet hardware, but if the Sonor shells are better, then I might have to go for that one!. I have heard from somewhere that the 1990s Ludwig Rockers sucked (the Rocker being sold is ~10 years old)!. also, how do both drums compare to a Ludwig Accent CS!?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Definitely the Sonor 3001, the sonor is 100% maple and it's newer
the Rocker is old and is made of something like basswood (i think)

but if you don't have money for the hardware then buy the Rocker

The Sonor 3001 is definitely better than the Accent CSWww@QuestionHome@Com

Would definitely take the sonor kit if sound is your primary concern, they will almost guaranteed sound better!. But if you're not gonna have any budget for hardware take the ludwig!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
