Compact Folding Drum Kit with Rack
The Traps A400 is a minimalist’s dream. This fusion-sized compact drum kit, even with its included steel rack and hardware, folds into the tightest of back seats and loads into the gig in a single trip. The Traps A400’s “shells” are made from impact- and warp-resistant ABS plastic that is guaranteed not to warp or crack under extreme stress. And its durable frame offers a satisfying playing experience without scooting or wobbling. The A400’s hydraulic-style tom heads deliver a warm, controlled tone straight away, and its dual bass heads afford a fair range of tones. One of the A400’s strongest suits, its 12″ snare drum, boasts a tight, crisp attack and easy-to-grab Paddle Bill throw off that drummers at Sweetwater took to instantly.
A different kind of kit
There are two types of drummers who will most enjoy the Traps A400: those who want to travel lighter and set up faster, and those who are looking for a different type of sound. For lightweight portability, the A400 is ideal. Its wafer-thin shells greatly reduce weight and setup time for a kit that gigs at a moment’s notice. Sonically, funk and jazz drummers, in particular, are sure to enjoy Trap’s lightning-fast response time and fun, punchy tones. Mixing and matching are encouraged — try blending Traps toms with your studio drums for greater textural variety, or take a full-sized snare on the road for a compact kit with the sound and response you trust.
A working drummer’s best friend
As all drummers know, hauling a full kit of drums, hardware, and cymbals is labor intensive and as thankless as a job can come. The Traps A400 offers a one-and-done portable solution for gigging drummers; the shells, stands, and rack collapse to roughly the size of a card table. Even so, the A400 doesn’t skimp on sturdiness. Its steel rack resists wobbling, and the rubber feet prevent scooting without a mat. This kit includes a hi-hat stand and chain-driven bass pedal — just add a throne and cymbals, and you’re off to the races with the Traps A400.
