I Bought the WORST Rated Drums on Amazon

[@rykerblade_snb]

In my experience, the amount of words in the product name directly correlates to the likelihood of how cheap it truly is

[@nucleargandhi2709]

They rely on maximum keyword capture to even show up in people's search results.

[@ghtrefgi]

imagine one thing just called "drum"

[@JensenBrock1]

I’d assume the 4” djembe is referring to the diameter not the height.

[@briwu]

I think you’re right

[@ishmowo]

​@@briwuholy shit, did that rhyme?

[@Nareimooncatt]

Don't you love it when they put the entire product description as the product name? I'm actually impressed they managed to get the larger drum tuned that much higher than the smaller/side drums. Lol

[@racoondrummer4544]

I had a similar situation to the o-rings with a big fat snare drum. Some genius in ups folded it and it was all wrinkly. I ironed it with a shirt on top on the floor and that worked surprisingly well. I also used a hair blower to fix a friend of mine's o-ring

[@DeAthWaGer]

That drumset comes pre-built at Five Below, for $5. You got major scammed.

[@JediBrickProductions_VR]

Fr I got one 7:53

[@GreyhoundFTW]

dude the "chubder kid drum set" is very well liked by my 2 year old cousin. It was actually easy to put together and she loves it and it's great to watch her improve

[@Praha175]

I wanna see more kids toy instrument reviews! I liked how you focused on what other reviews were saying. It could actually help parents buying cheap gifts! Maybe add what you recommend parents get for cheap instruments.

[@drummer4hire12]

A hair dryer will reset those damping rings.....That Moeller technique you put on display while throttling that massive mini kit was pure FIRE!!!!

I'd watch a whole video of EMC messing around with a Djembe, definitely looks like hes having fun with it.

[@malicesmom]

How are there no comments about your chicken sweater yet?! It's awesome!

[@0bnoxcousymic476]

You should make a brave little Toaster Indoor Show

[@gamingborger]

best part of the jazz thing. that adorable little cymbal. could be a fine little accent

[@IsaiahMarrujo]

Ain't no way bro started playing jig 2 on those tiny drums 💀💀

[@binguette]

LOL

[@sincerewilliams9741]

I would love to see a custom made version of the mini drumset with spocks and a little splash cymbal

[@JasonMcLemore]

I bought that little table top drum for my 3 y/o nephew at Five Below for... $5

[@TheSquareOnes]

Why do I have the sudden urge to pick one up next time I'm in a Five Below? Sure it's almost completely useless but it's only $5! That's practically free! They also sell some little plastic ukuleles that are... interesting. The sound quality is actually better than what you'd expect out of a $5 plastic toy (although still bad) but the instrument is kiiiinda out of tune with itself, in the sense that fretting 0 actually gives you a semitone below the root relative to every other fret. So like the start of a major scale up one string is 0 1 3 4 6 instead of 0 2 4 5 7. Not impossible to work around once you understand what's happening but it's obviously less than ideal and makes anything with a flat 2 impossible to play. That's before even getting into the tuning between the strings or relative to other instruments. Anyway 10/10 purchase, love that store.

[@ringsystemmusic]

Same to both. I need to electrify my terrible uke

[@-Ricky_Spanish-]

My wife picked one up for $5 at Kohl's, already assembled. My kid actually had a lot of fun with it for a couple days, but he couldn't resist the urge to destroy it because 3 year old boys. It's got kind of a cool sound too, 3 stars for sure.

[@rootsradical]

Love the tactical djembe roll.

[@RedDogMamaHD]

I really love your Peace Drums shirt!!! 😘

[@DanAuslander]

By EMC policy the assembly time lapse at 13:35 requires White Boy Smooth. Fail! Great fun with these terrible products.

[@dustt314]

14:38 No way bro did diddles with those sticks 💀

[@jamesbstudios7000]

14:49 Love the Jig 2 lol

[@ringsystemmusic]

Oh hey I bought the terrible desktop drums for the cymbal to build a gong amp out of. Worked for that

[@Vixyzsisgoated]

i love your videos man! Keep up the good work!

[@Viking300]

I am literally wearing a more cowbell T-shirt.

[@spoobus]

Silkie chimken Christmas sweater goes hard.

[@timellingson844]

Try heating the O rings on the low setting of a heat gun. Apply slight tension if possible. (Pull the ring flat as you heat it)

[@1985Hern]

You can try ironing the rings between fabric to straighten them

[@Scooped_Orange]

can you please showcase your tenor pad on the background!!

[@codyappell24]

Not related to the video, but I too have been searching Amazon for percussion stuff and was curious on people thoughts on drum dials vs tune bot. I would be primarily using it for marching drums and for students to use to Independently tune when I’m away. Thoughts?

[@AlexH4774]

Merry Christmas Eric!

[@TheDeertay]

A heatgun/blow dryer on low MIGHT fix those rings.

[@lapdogg]

Next time you get orings that are bent like that, try using a hair dryer set to high heat to warm them up and then sandwich them betwwn the heavy books or weights... Just don't get the dryer so close to the plastic that it will melt. lol

[@FR_Finn08]

I felt the ring of the cowbell

[@143685753ton22y]

loving the new camera setup

[@Seth-uc1sf]

I'm in my schools choir and we do a few songs that use djembe and we have allot of good quality one's, so i thought we would have at least one strap for it but we don't! our conductor uses the rope on the sides and wraps it around his back

[@strawcats6031]

Tip for bent o rings, just use an iron to straighten it

[@AaronObregon-c6k]

Merry Christmas, EMC

[@AdrianChazz]

Great video, Eric... HAVE A GOOD CHRISTMAS MORNING.

[@ML-jk3sz]

an iron or hair dryer will make these flatten out again. Use a wet towel with the iron and put the towel on top of the rings.

[@kinghotcoc0]

you should make a drumset out of these!

[@acousticdoug]

Would those o-rings flatten out if they were hit with a heat gun or hair dryer?

[@NK-ov6kd]

Hi Eric. Funny Video, did you sent Back all the stuff?

[@usaonto_p]

randomly starts playing jig 2 on mini drumset

[@michellepalmer6381]

Ok that somersault was incredible

[@williammarrs]

Ballin out on that cardboard drumset 💯 💯

[@neonblack211]

oh god those O-rings thats so messed up lol... no pre flattening option offered?

[@connorericksonmusic]

1:28 Well..I-I bet it has a, g-great personality…

[@ViciousPower]

Wsp eric Merry christmas! could you do a video on have fast you can do double strokes with different grips?

[@Nef9184]

"I'm doing things"😆

[@kishascape]

Hey you never linked the video for the bass drum sticker.

[@auteurfiddler8706]

That small drum set would look great as a set for some GI Joe or Barbie 12 inch drummers.

[@ArthurMorganloverRDR2]

Brother I’m in band and I play quads,cow bell,base drum, and snare drum

[@hallowfanatics1941]

They sell the mini drum sets at 5 below and I got 2 sets and made tenors 😁

[@Thatpricedpicle08]

Yes you did jig 2 on the mini drum set 😂😂

[@Bubbamacomb]

Merry Christmas.

[@jennypearlsawali1958]

[@coffee1635]

Merry Christmas everyone! 🎅

[@reddissleeping]

merry christmas eve !

[@OfficialxSimple]

Thought he said he was going to link the video to his review on the custom bass drum sticker, but he didn't...and I can't find any video within the same time period as this video.

[@DoctorBiobrain]

I think the most impressive thing I’ve seen EMC do is that somersault. Maybe I’m just getting old but that seemed impossible to me.

[@resipsaloquitur13]

Re: The 9.1in drum. Put your hand into the back of the head. Lever your wrist/arm on the cross brace.

[@Rightchickenwing]

Great video mate 😊😊😀

[@worldsheaviestjamband93]

Sounded better without the big boy sticks.

[@ajames0531]

Dude I honestly thought the thumbnail featured the picture of the drum I sent you

[@JamesThatcher]

You don't have kids.... That you know of ... 😂

[@johneastmond9092]

I've watched a few of your videos and see you're a really good drummer. Till now I didn't know how good. You played that cheap toy drum set and actually made it sound pretty good! And you didn't break it! OK drummers, buy one, set it up, play it, and beat him. Ain't happenin'!

[@RealAxel46]

Can you buy timbal please

[@RedDogMamaHD]

You must be earning enough if you can buy this C#@p!!! 😂😂😂

[@ChurchOfTheHolyMho]

Awesome! Now expect to see a Chinese website stealing this video and showing professional percussionist endorse studio pro recording classic cardboard self-assembled kit red / blue random color professional quality party for boy girl gift already.
