What you need to start in Decatur

You probably have somewhere to put a kit — the question is when.

  • Start on a practice pad and a pair of sticks. Nothing about your first months needs a full kit.
  • A garage or basement makes an acoustic kit realistic here. A used kit in good condition beats a new budget one at the same price.
  • Agree practice hours with the household before the kit arrives, not after. It is the thing that quietly ends most beginners' playing.
