Limited Edition Mahogany Drumset - Handmade in Japan
The Tama TH52CZSS-MSS Star Mahogany Shell-Set Midnight Storm Sapele is a five-piece high-end shell set made of mahogany with a veneer of Qulited Sapele. Its exciting grain is further accentuated by the Midnight Storm Sapele Finish. The shells with reinforcement ring unfold a clean, warm sound with balanced bass that only mahogany can produce. High-quality rubber-bearing shell hardware in a chrome finish, solid zinc die-cast hoops and the Star bearing edge do the rest to elicit the best possible sound from the Tama Star drums. Hand-built by experienced drum makers in Japan, Star drum kits are the ultimate in the Tama range.
Heads from Remo: Tama Star Mahogany
All the heads on the Tama TH52CZSS-MSS come from American head specialists Remo. Ambassador Coated on the batter side and Ambassador Clear on the reso side are found on tom toms and floor toms, while the Bassdrum features a Powerstroke 3 Coated as the batter head and a Fiberskyn Powerstroke 3 Diplomat as the reso head. They are tuned with cast hoops, which, like the rest of the hardware, feature a classy chrome finish. Hold Tight Washers take over the task of a tuning lock and the Super Resonant Mounting System ensures vibration-neutral toms.
Both toms and the floor tom come with Quick-Lock Brackets, allowing for particularly fast and uncomplicated assembly and disassembly. The floor tom feet have air cushions, thanks to which the floor tom can develop its full resonance potential.
High quality shell hardware
The lugs and Bassdrum claws convince with a filigree design and lightweight construction. To let the shells vibrate as freely as possible, attention was paid to the least possible mass and only the most necessary contact from hardware to the shell. So the heads are supported by rubber pads and the Bassdrum claws use a "floating" design to minimize contact with the hoop. Details like a printed Tama emblem instead of a metal badge and a wooden border for the balance hole consequently continue the lightweight construction. The same objective was also applied to the construction of the Bassdrum. Its feet have an extra-large rubber buffer in which the mandrel is mounted separately. The forces acting on the Bassdrum are thus not even transferred to the mandrel but absorbed by the rubber foot. The result is a Bassdrum that can resonate even more freely.
