  MGR/Rich M's review "Tama Starclassic Maple"

  1 people found this review helpful

  Overall Opinion

  Bought the set(BD, 3 Rack Toms, 2 Floor Toms)new in Canada. Took just over 4 months for the custom ordered sizes, and color, Crimson Fade, with brushed nickel hardeware, to arrive.
  
  
  
  
  
  As to be expected. Top quality, rich warm sound, with a good high end attack due to the cast rims. Starcast mounts do a very good job isolating the shell from the stand hardware. The drums sound awesome, and they are beautiful to look at.
  
  
  
  
  
  So far, nothing with the drums themselves, although the packaging was poor. They each came in a plastic bag in a box. Not really any other type of cushioning. One tom had been dropped, or hit, and the cast rim was severely bent, requiring a new one... not in stock in North America, so another 3 months for that.
  
  
  
  They are well made, have perfect bearing edges, and finish is impeccable. The laquer job is equal to the best you will find anywhere.
  
  
  
  Expensive as hell, and had to wait forever(plus now having to wait for a rim), but they are top of the line drums, and you get what you pay for. Highly recommended.

  Overall Opinion

  Purchased second hand from friend, but probably available from Newcastle Drum Centre (www.newcastledrum.co.uk - highly recommended)
  
  Editors Note: (in white with black crome rods)
  
  
  
  Fantastic 9 piece drum kit. Same model, colour, tension rods etc as Lars Ulrich (of Metallica) used to use. Fantastic booming sound.

  Overall Opinion

  I did not used to DPOS advice on stuff I use, but the I'm so happy with my investment. I bought 3 years ago (in Milonga) and I DEPAU possde this jewelry, I take my foot ... My config is pretty big, 8,10,12,14,16 and in 22x18 bass drum, while the hardware is the same brand, and frankly, nothing to say both practical and solid.

  Overall Opinion

  Hello something I rarely do is to c advice on the material but I throw myself without hesitation because the drumkit is superb!
  
  It's been several years played the batt and the stuff that I achte: Sonor Delite, yamaha maple, and that's ... I'm just cracking sound is of a clarity and a superb round . l I bought three weeks ago when I took it out of the box it already rang top (without a key stroke).
  
  For me the price n lev is not justified but compared to some high-end.
  
  Without hesitation I would do this over the choice of colors that I have chosen is ancient natural burst c is again superb as all the finishes of the batt. I understand his succsa through the ages ..........

  Overall Opinion

  I use this hardware since 1998, I never had any complaints to make, only pseudo-ings sounds complaining about the power and rsonnance wondering systmatiquement any gaffer. I say "pseudo" because I had the opportunity to record the SAE Aubervilliers (for those who know), and his-ings taient delighted with the purity of sound, without any parasite, very easy and sound to record. It's really a high-end rev, I think much more equivalent to DW Chréa (but this is only my opinion, and also of some vendors of many well known stores Pigalle), and quip Evans Genera G1 or G2 is a rgal, velvet, honey, the game is as comfortable as a luxury sofa. I-2 large boxes of 22 "x18" toms 10 ", 12", 13 "and 14" suspended, deep mdium, a floor tom 16 "x16" snare drum and the corresponding kit, which pte any place, time, rverb 'natural rooms ... In short, one molleux, powerful, with real notes and sustain without nasty harmonics. And big-box ...
