anyone got or know how much a roland roland TD-20KBK would set me back?

yes, i did check google but it was reluctant to give away a price.

i found an american site selling this kit for the equivalent of £4899. though i dont know if this is a good way to measure. that was from $8999

can anyone help? i know that seems pricey for a kit but its still cheaper than soundproofing a semi detached hooce.

You are looking at the 5 grand mark give or take for that model, been looking into them myself. It's the top of the range one, the next one down is less than half the price with allegedly similar sound performance.

I was looking at some today V-drums today. Sets between 600 and 1500.

I think my flatmate paid about £1500 for his.

Not played that specific set, but I have had a go on Roland kits before.....loads of cool noises and the mesh heads are a big improvement on the rubber pads, but they'll never sound or feel as good as an acoustic IMO.

Very difficult to justify the price tag unless you're planning on doing a lot of gigging or some serious home recording with it. If it's just a neighbour-friendly alternative to an acoustic kit, I'd get something else for a third of the price....at least.

Just my two penneth....

UK retail inc. VAT on the TD-20 is about £5800 or so.

I plan on doing a lot of home recording and possibly some gigs depending on the quality of the sound.

was also going to use real cymbals live to give it a bit more dynamic range.

i managed to get bruce miller down to £3900! it comes with a years warranty anyway.
