At least, that\u2019s how it worked with me and my \u20ac500 Tama Swingstar. Bought in the early 2000s after long negotiations with my parents, this most basic drumset accompanied me through the early stages every musician must go through: the gigs at the high school parties, the terrible recordings made in the guitarist\u2019s garage, the concerts at the local pub where you got paid with beers and free dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It didn\u2019t take me long to realize my dear Swingstar sounded cheap. But then I also understood that a good drummer can make the most of whatever instrument they have at hand: you change drumheads, you learn how to properly tune your set, and most of all, you build a relationship with your instrument, learning how it resonates in every environment and adjust your drumming to make it sound better than it should.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long story short, I still take out my Swingstar for a ride a few times a year. Despite having upgraded my drumset a couple of times already, my dear Tama is still with me, and trust me, we\u2019re still having a wonderful time together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
