My daughter is 11 years old and has expressed an interest in playing the drums for years. She has taken piano for 4 years and would like to try a percussion instrument. Her father and I have no problems putting up with the noise, but we'd like to get her a good starter drum set that doesn't cost a fortune.

My ex boyfriend is the drummer for the Crabb Family (a southern gospel band)....so i know a lot about drum sets hope this helps. Check out the link in the source
Beginner Drum Kits are inexpensive and not necessarily cheap drum sets. The begineer Drum Kit today are made much better than they used to be. They aren't cheap drum kits at all. They are made with the beginner drummer in mind. For the most part they are made with less expensive hardware, drum rims (hoops), and drum shells. They also may come with a cheaper kick drum pedal and hihat and cymbal stands. This is probably the best way to do things just in case you find you don't want to play the drums. Pearl Drums have been one of the top selling beginner's drum kits but Ludwig, Tama, and Pacific Drums are becoming much more popular.
There are so many good beginner's drum sets out there that are affordable, it makes it becomes difficult to choose. I've used a Tama drum set in school so I went for the Tama. The school drum set get's the crap kicked out of everyday and it still plays. I think that they are worth every penny. Even the Tama Swingstar sets are a decent sounding set with very solid hardware.

No starter kit comes with a double bass, because they hard hard to play and not suitable for learners. They are genrally (unless you buy a cheap or seond hand one) in your price range for the whole kit. Its best if you shop around, there are a number of good sites (depending on where you live) and with drums, the more expenisve they are, the better they are, as a rule Also, I don't quite understand why you want two floor toms, as they are barely used in many drumming techniques.

get her a good used one. A brand new one her size is going to be way expensive. (You'll need at least a 22" bass drum)

musicians friend is a great place to get what you need. Just go with a name brand. Don't get a no name set they don't sound as good as the real deal.
