Hello. I purchased the original Command Kit from Guitar Center back in August 2016, and am very happy with it, mesh snare & Bass, but same module as the Crimsom & Forge. Then they came out with the Command X, same kit but with an extra cymbal, and red color accents. If you plan on upgrading, the cash may be better spent on going with the Command X if you can come up with the extra money, but at least you will be half way there to meet your goal with mesh snare & mesh bass, extra cymbal, and under company warranty for at least a year if something goes wrong. . Then just add one more cymbal. I wish I would have went with the Crimson, all mesh, but I had a limited budget, so I had to get the best I could with what I had. It is a very good kit though.
