Guitar Hero and Rock Band both have a passionate group of followers who regularly play these games. Some of us can’t play a real instrument beyond the recorder that we learned in second grade. Others happen to be talented musicians in real life as well. If you know how to rock out on a real drum set or if you feel inclined to learn after all the hours you have spent on Rock Band, these are the drums for you.

This custom designed drum set was used in the studio to record dozens of drum tracks for Guitar Hero 2, 3, Rocks the 80s, and Rock Band. In case you are interested (since us Guitar Hero nuts tend to be into finishes and whatnot), the color is sunburst fade over mapa burl. Specifics include :
SIZES ARE: 2 KICKS-22X16 AND 20X16, SN-14X5.5, TOMS-10X8, 12X8, 13X9, 14X12, 15X13. HARDWARE IS 9000 SERIES: 4 BOOM CYMBAL STANDS, 1 DBL CYMBAL STAND, DBL TOM MOUNT ON BD, 2 DBL TOM STANDS FOR FLOORS, SN STAND, HI HAT STAND, DRUM THRONE, CASES FOR ALL. BRAND NEW 5000 DBL PEDAL(NEVER USED)
And I thought the Rock Band instruments created clutter. Prepare to empty out half your gaming room if you want to buy this drum set.

One time in 2nd grade, i pretended my recorder was a sword on the playground and swung it real hard – the detachable head part of the instrument flew off, ricocheted off the concrete and knocked some kid in the head unconcious who was like 10 feet away in the sandbox. Music is awesome

Or I could pay $400 on Craigslist instead.
Cheapass, away!

If I had infinite money, or even a large, legitimate amount of money, I’d buy so many things relating to video games I’m obsessed with.
1 million dollar life-size Master Chief? Yes please.
Till then…pencils on my thigh and couch will do just fine for drumming! Craigslist for a new couch to drum on, too.

Odd there is 2 auctions set up for this, both using same pics and write up, so much for being one of a kind ;)
