Competition: win a Yamaha electronic drum kit

Fancy yourself as the new Meg White, Max Roach or even just Animal from the Muppets? Enter our competition to win a Yamaha DTX400K, the gold standard series of electronic drum kits

Want to master polyrhythms, rimshots and cymbal chokes? Or simply beat things heavily with a stick? Then pull up a stool behind a Yamaha DTX, the gold standard series of electronic drum kits, of which the 400K (pictured above) is an entry-level powerhouse: packing enough features to usher you from timid beginner to thrashing virtuoso. For an exceptionally civilised price, it has crash and ride cymbals, three toms, snare and hi-hat, and that's before you get into the really clever stuff. The module offers you the sounds of ten legendary acoustic kits from drumming history, with superb fidelity. Whiplash-esque jazz afficionados can mix and match within these; playing say, a maple custom tom against a hard rock, twin-kick pedal. Accent articulation translates strike pressure into sound, putting you fully in control.

Want the good news? Drum roll please: we have one to give away, for free.
