However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Key Features
The BDK 1 Compact Drum Kit by Gear4music is made for beginners taking their first steps into acoustic drumming. Its four piece configuration keeps things simple and compact, so it fits comfortably into bedrooms, garages, and school music rooms. And there?s still plenty to get stuck into. Poplar shells give you a bright, punchy sound suited to rock, jazz, and other popular styles, while the included 12" hi hats and 14" crash ride let you practise rhythms, accents, and cymbal technique.
You won?t need to hunt down the essentials separately either. Stands, a kick pedal, padded stool, drumsticks, and drum key are all included. There?s even a set up guide to help you put everything together, so you can spend less time getting organised and more time learning your first beats.
Product Ref: 148597
Starting the drums should feel exciting, not complicated. That’s why the BDK 1 comes with the essentials you need to get playing. Alongside the four drums, you’ll receive 12" hi hats, a 14" crash ride, a snare stand, hi hat stand, kick pedal, and padded stool. Drumsticks and a drum key are included too. There’s also a handy set up guide to walk you through assembly. Once everything is in place, you’ll have a complete acoustic setup ready for learning beats, practising fills, and getting comfortable behind the kit.
Short on space? The BDK 1’s compact configuration makes fitting regular drum practice into your home that little bit easier. With one rack tom and smaller dimensions than many acoustic kits, it’s well suited to bedrooms, garages, and school music rooms. It’s easier to store away when you’re finished, too. You still get the core pieces of an acoustic setup: a 20" x 14" bass drum, 10" x 8" rack tom, 14" x 14" floor tom, and 13" x 5" snare. So, there’s plenty here for developing coordination, grooves, fills, and other fundamental drumming skills.
Hear your beats take shape with bright, punchy poplar shells. Their clear character helps each drum speak as you move around the kit, whether you’re settling into a groove or getting to grips with your first fills. This sound works across rock, jazz, and other popular genres, giving you plenty of room to explore different playing styles as your skills develop. And because the four piece configuration keeps everything straightforward, you can concentrate on timing, coordination, and technique without being surrounded by more drums than you need. It’s a simple setup with plenty to practise.
Cymbals are an important part of any acoustic setup, and the BDK 1 gives you two useful voices to explore. Its 12" steel hi hats produce a crisp sound that’s well suited to practising accents and syncopated rhythms, while the 14" crash ride gives you both sustained shimmer and more defined, attacking hits. Together, they give you plenty to work with as you learn how cymbals fit into different beats. Pair them with the four drums, and you can practise complete grooves, experiment with different patterns, and gradually build confidence moving around your kit.
Music is for everyone, so we’re making it easier for you to start playing. Backed by our years of professional experience, the Gear4music range gives you access to a vast collection of instruments, audio gear and accessories. Produced ethically and responsibly, they're suitable for every musical interest while meeting the expectations of a caring world. There’s never been a better time to start making music.
