Alesis Surge Mesh elektronisch drumstel

General

The Alesis Surge Mesh Kit is an electronic drum kit with mesh pads that offer a natural feel and a great response. The 10-inch snare and three 8-inch toms all feature dual-zone mesh pads that can give you two different sounds depending on whether you strike the middle or the edge. There's an 8-inch mesh bass pad tower too that comes with a pedal and three 10-inch cymbal pads are also included. The crash and ride both have a choke function and the hi-hat comes with a pedal. You also get a robust rack to mount everything on, all the cables you need, drumsticks, a drum key and a power adapter.
