Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've had practice pads that cost a hundred dollars, but I keep coming back to this one. Why?
Well, for one it's mostly quiet. A lot of the other practice pads attempt to replicate a traditional drum head, and just wind up resonating a lot (defeating the basic purpose of practice pads). This one pretty much sounds like you thwacked a solid piece of rubber with a stick. It's somewhere between playing on a book and playing against a bed in terms of noise, and the noise it does make is generally neutral.
Two, good rebound. The rebound isn't dead on... it feels a little bit more like you're playing rubber than a taught skin. But unlike notebooks or skin-based pads, it does provide about the right amount of rebound.
Three, indestructable. Fold it up and toss it in a bag. Practice anywhere.
Four, they're dirt cheap. You're reading a review of something that costs less than lunch. Forget it at a friend's house or lose it with luggage... it doesn't really matter.
Overall, it's a big hunk of rubber that sticks well to surfaces and does a good job of simulating a drum rebound. I've been roundly unimpressed with far more expensive practice pads, and found that a few years into my drumming I still come back to this one. Well done.
