Drums and Percussion
Drums and percussion are rhythm instruments. Drummers and percussionists provide consistent tempo and beat to a song played. With a particular drum pattern or fillhat. A drummer may improve his kit by adding more toms, a couple of splash or china cymbals or maybe a cowbell and so on to create a more dynamic and versatile sound.

Acoustic and Electronic Drums
* '''Standard drum kits''' are indefinitely upgradeable to your hearts content. Acoustic drums may be bulky and take longer time to set up as compared to its electronic counterpart. But the sound, due to its natural acoustic reverberation, is undoubtedly unmatched. Products like Sonor Drums, Tama, Yamaha, DW Drums and Ludwig are top of the line brands, which most professional drummers usually prefer.
* An '''electronic drum set''' uses amplification for its sound to be heard. Each kit is wired independently to a programmable drum module which is then connected to an electronic drum amplifier. You can even practice playing drum in the middle of the night without waking your sleeping neighbors. Just plug in your headphones and jam away! From the drum module, each kit can be programmed to any percussion sound and access any drum tone from rock to jazz to synth and many more all at the push of a button. The advantage of an electronic drum kit is primarily focused on its versatility and controllable volume. Popular brands of this kind of instrument include Alesis, Yamaha, Roland, Pearl, and Ion.
