Using this drum kit is easy. Just place the drums on a flat and stable surface. Make sure the legs of the floor tom and the kick drum are well - adjusted for balance. When you play, use proper drumsticks and strike the drums at different spots to get various sounds. Remember, this kit doesn't include a snare drum, so you'll need to get one separately if you want a full - set experience. For maintenance, keep the drums away from moisture and direct sunlight. Wipe them with a clean, dry cloth regularly to keep the transparent blue finish looking great. If you need to move the kit, handle the drums gently to avoid any damage.
