I originally purchased my drums as part of the band kit; however, this is the same product. The drum kit requires a Wiimote, so you’ll still need a Wiimote for each guitar and the drums. The drum kit features 3 drum pads and 2 elevated cymbal pads. As they appear across the note highway from left to right: left drum, left cymbal, middle drum, right cymbal, right drum. This “up-down” mechanic makes learning the Guitar Hero drums a little more challenging than the Rock Band drums (as does the 5th pad). With some practice, this becomes a non-issue.
The drum pads are designed to absorb noise, but you still need to turn up the volume a couple notches versus playing with just guitars or microphone. The foot pedal is designed to not move around while playing, but I’ve found this to still be an issue when playing on the oriental rug in my living room.
The drum pads are responsive and velocity sensitive, so it feels like you’re really playing the drums (well, at least more than the Rock Band version). All things considered, the drums are a great addition to the Guitar Hero ensemble.

I’ve purchased through Amazon sellers two stand alone guitar hero drum sets (Wii) in the past 6 months. On the first one, the red drum blew out after about 2 weeks use. On the second one, the green drum blew out within two months. I don’t hit them very hard, so it’s not a result of abuse; plus, I am only at the easy level, so you don’t even hit them much. For the price I paid for each of the drum sets, I’m outraged at how cheaply made they are.

I’ve used both and the Guitar Hero drum set blows away the Rock Band set. Don’t get me wrong, both are fun but Guitar Hero is excellent!

I’ve heard and research reviews before I purchased this product. A lot of people were saying it was not accurate in comparison to Rockband. I can honestly tell you that this is a fallacy. Guitar Hero drum set is very accurate, easy to use and fun.
So feel free to purchase this product. Music selection on Guitar Hero is better than Rockband.
Thanks

Purhcased for my grandson. Delivered promptly. My grandson was on cloud nine and loves Guitar Hero World Tour – Stand Alone Drums. He was especially happy it was wireless.
