Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

That seems a couple hundred dollars too much for a
used kit, especially with the 2nd version out now.  As
far as jazz goes you need to sit down at the kit and
fiddle with it to make your decision.  It is a pretty
sensitive drumkit but the thing is its electric, not
acoustic.  Its a different feel all together, you need
to sit down at the kit and see if it suits you taste
at all, you may love it or hate it.  That's my best
advice.  i hope this helps.   -Joe

P.S.  I have trouble playing straight jazz on it
unless I use acoustic cymbals, which kinda defeats the
purpose of why most people buy electric drums (for
silent practice).
