R.E.T. (Rhythm Electronic Technology) Percussion has released the latest debut in its custom shop electronic drum line.

The NS2™ line is the next generation of design in the Natural Series kits. R.E.T. has completely recreated the real feel of an acoustic drum set as each drum offers a 13\" playing surface with real drum heads:

\"One of the main concerns of most drummers was the ability to obtain a \'real feel\' out of electronic drums as many utilize a mesh or rubber playing surface.\"

With this in mind, the Natural Series custom electronic drums were born.

Using real drumheads, the NS2 triggering system gives the same feel as an acoustic kit, but with the sounds and benefits of an electronic kit, according to R.E.T. The company uses a unique muffling system that cuts stick noise levels by 60 decibels and gives the drummer more natural dynamics and stick bounce.

R.E.T. Percussion believes drums should reflect your personality. Hence they offer hand stained shells in six shades. Custom stained shells are possible as well. The rack is double braced and a rack extension is available for adding toms and cymbals to your kit. Of course every kit is fully compatible with all drum modules.

Smartrigger™ cymbals
R.E.T. Percussion is also exclusively using Smartrigger™ cymbals with every NS2 kit. Smartrigger™ offers electronic cymbals featuring quiet brass-alloy playing surfaces, authentic cymbal playability, feel, swing, and responsiveness along with superior triggering.

Smartrigger\'s patent-pending electronic cymbals are made from real metal cymbals laminated to a special clear acoustic dampening layer to produce an electronic cymbal that looks and feels like a real acoustic cymbal without the acoustic cymbal sound!
