Used Blowouts

All of us have had to work our way up through the ranks, graduating from just a practice pad and a pair of sticks to Frankenstein-ed kits made of mix-and-match pieces, all the way up to our first complete kits. We carry used pro-quality gear in top-notch condition that'll won't break your budget. (Refresh the page to see more items.)

Condition/Original Scores

To give you a good idea of what these items are like, we came up with a ten-point scoring system. The condition score shows the shape the equipment is in, and the original score tells you how much of the item is original, authentic and genuine.

Condition

11	Brand new!
10	MINT condition; practically new!
7-9	Good to great; no pitting, no fading--what else can we say?
4-6	Fair to good; light pitting or mild fading--great player's kit, ready to go!
1-3	Poor to fair; may have extra holes, fading or pitting--great project kit.

Original

11	Brand new (all original)!
10	No modifications; All of the all-original parts are included.
7-9	Few modifications; All original parts, a few non-essential ones may be missing.
4-6	Mostly there; a few non-original parts or mods, might include rewraps or new bearing edges.
1-3	Lots of aftermarket, broken or missing parts.
