Acoustic & Electronic Drums
Find the Right Drum Kit for Your Style
At Mexico Music, we carry a wide range of drum kits to fit every player — from beginners looking for their first acoustic set to advanced musicians upgrading to an electronic kit for studio and stage. Whether you want the raw power of acoustic drums or the versatility of Alesis electronic drums, we’ve got you covered.
Acoustic Drums – Traditional Feel & Classic Sound
There’s nothing like the energy of a live acoustic drum kit. The punch of the kick, the crack of the snare, and the shimmer of cymbals are what define countless styles of music. We carry kits and shell packs from respected brands, along with cymbals, hardware, and accessories to keep your setup road-ready.
- Perfect for live rock, jazz, country, and worship music
- Wide variety of shell configurations and finishes
- Expandable with cymbals, hardware, and add-on drums
Great choice for drummers who want the traditional experience.
Why Electronic Drums Are the New Rage
Electronic drum sets (e-drums) have exploded in popularity, and for good reason. They deliver realistic playability with a fraction of the noise, making them perfect for practice at home, recording in the studio, or playing gigs where sound control matters.
- Quiet practice with headphone capability
- Hundreds of built-in sounds to explore every style
- Compact size — fits in apartments, bedrooms, or small studios
- Recording-ready with USB/MIDI connections for easy integration
- Consistent sound at every volume, ideal for live sound mixing
More and more drummers are adding e-drums to their setup as an alternative or complement to their acoustic kit.
