Thanks, all. She actually plays violin, keyboard, drums, guitar, and percussion in the school band. We were fooling around in the music shop where she takes advanced drum lessons and we buy all our stuff, so we do support them. However the only new instrument we have ever bought was her drum kit, from that same shop. Too many people buy new, use twice, then sell them for half or less. We weren't in a hurry to buy, but we found this one for sale right off the bat and might be too good a bargain to pass up. She liked one almost exactly like it in the store.
