3.Most important part for drums---Hardware
Drum's hardwares also got their own fashions.Ten lugs for snare drum, double braced and stong stand for snare stand,cymbal stand,boom stand,Hi-hat stand and throne,strong and prevailing design tom tom drum arms
4.The plywood of the wooden frame drum.Maple preferred.Generally 9 aged plywoods, help durm to get perfect resonance and vibration.But most wooden drum frames are made up of birch or some other wood,depending on their sound when you play it.

Thank you for your reply,larapumpkin
Would you mind that i can just tell you some points on how to choose high quality drums?As i do not want to be a teacher here. :)!
For all musical instruments,if you like it,you will spend time to play it on and on, no matter how hard the process will be,you will enjoy your practise.Maybe you can buy a practice pad to start your first step.
Generally speaking,famous brands always got very high reputation in musical instruments field as they are really made perfectly,such as Pearl,Yamaha,Tama,but high end for beginners, so how to pick a common snare drum or a drum set?
1.Good plating, no scratches,very smooth ---- rims,lugs,loops,metal drum frame
2.Three levers of wooden drum frame skin:PVC,Celluloid and spray-paint.Levels from low end to high.Attention, for PVC and Celluloid,they are sticky on the frame,when you feel them,they should be very smooth and no terrible glue come out.
3.....tomorrow continue.off duty now.

I'm not a professional player just an amateur one.
After my graduation from my university last year,the first job that i engaged in was a instruments buyer,
and i started to learn the features of all the instruments. I'm so fond of music that i think doing this job is a kind of having fun.
And i've known many versatile players from US as my last company got a sales department in US, and watched them played many kinds of instruments during the International Musical Instruments Show.Almost all of them could play sax and guitar(no matter wooden guitar, electric guitar
or bass)very well and they said they also play drums,percussions as well, it's amazing. I've learn a lot from them for how to compare the quality of almost all the instruments and i have been to many manufacturers to see the whole process of doing guitars,drums and some band instruments.Although i'm not doing the job of musical instruments buyer now, but i'm still want to share with you guys of my experience.
