Compact, versatile and portable

Featuring an 8” height-adjustable snare, a string-operated 10” hi-hat, 90-degree kick pedal, and adjustable stool, the Essential Kit is ideal for drummers working in small spaces or moving frequently between lessons, rehearsal spaces, or gigs. The included foam mute pad keeps the snare at a comfortable volume for practice without disturbing others, while the two padded backpack-style carry straps make transporting the kit easy and comfortable.

Adjustable and expandable

The Zip-Kit grows with the player. Fully height-adjustable drums and cymbals are suitable for both children and adults. Four telescoping posts allow you to add extra toms and cymbals when you’re ready to expand your kit — components all available to purchase! The kit can also be configured for left-handed players in seconds by repositioning the pedals and hi-hat.

Durable and uniquely suited to the classroom

The NUVO Zip-Kit is designed to withstand the demands of regular classroom use. Its robust construction, simplified hardware and integrated design reduce the risk of damage while making setup and storage straightforward for teachers and students alike. With fewer loose components and a compact, self-contained structure, the Zip-Kit supports frequent use, quick transitions, and reliable performance, making it a practical and long-lasting solution for busy music departments.
