<h3><strong>Happy new year folks!</strong></h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a bit belated, but still important and here&#8217;s why; this year marks the 20th year of Midwest Drum &amp; Percussion!!! Can you believe it? 20 YEARS!!! Thats crazy awesome!</p>
<p>We figured, what better way to start the new year than to have some awesome GEAR BLOW OUTS for you, our loyal customers, who have kept us open these last 20 years!</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve got a mix of about a dozen guitars/basses/acoustics that make up our current GEAR BLOW OUT rack. We took the liberty of snapping a few pictures of the aforementioned GEAR BLOW OUT rack. The big red Xs are to hide the super low sale prices that we can&#8217;t actually show you online&#8230;</p>
<p>Come check this stuff out! And thanks, Wichita, for 20 fantastic years.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every once in a while we get an opportunity for whatever reason to get an even sweeter deal on certain products.  When these opportunities present themselves, we jump on top of them (not literally, I mean we can kick some pedals but our vertical leaves a bit to be desired).</p>
<p>At any rate, when Pearl approached us to help liquidate some very cool Vision kits that have been lurking in the corner of their warehouse for the last couple years it brought a smile to our collective face.  These kits are Birch ply shells made with Pearl&#8217;s proprietary SST (superior shell technology) that makes them durable enough to be the only kit from a major manufacturer that comes with a <em>lifetime warranty. </em></p>
<p>The Strata Black (a beautiful Delmar finish) will certainly get the attention of your Ringo though the sizes (10,12,16 with a booming 18&#215;22 kick) are a little more contemporary than anything the fab four might have been comfortable with.  Further attention was paid to the extra volume required to let the kick drum and floor tom fully project.  These drums are a full 8-ply compared to the 6-ply construction of the rack toms.</p>
<p>The kit is topped off with a 5.5&#215;14&#8243; steel sensitone snare, a solid drum that has yet to find a style that it cannot conquer.</p>
<p>All in all, this is a great kit at any price&#8230; But, at nearly 60% off, the deal gets a solid bump up to &#8220;amazing.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>&#8220;This is a DW drumset in every way. No detail has been overlooked, no corners have been cut. Its look and sound are decidedly DW. Custom-inspired, with a new Quarter Turret lug, low mass die-cast claw hook, new badge, logo head and hand-sprayed Specialty Lacquer finishes, it&#8217;s designed to get noticed and most importantly, Performance sounds like what you&#8217;d expect from DW. Easy to tune, superior sounding HVX shells, along with DW heads by Remo USA, STM™ (Suspension Tom Mounts), True Pitch™ Tuning and DW 45 degree back-cut bearing edges, all make these drums sing.&#8221; -<a href="http://www.dwdrums.com/drums/performance/"><span style="color: #0000ff;">DWDrums.com</span></a></h3>
