Tama Superstar Hyper-Drive Custom

I do not own but I played for several repeat, just to record some takes.

The configuration and the color is the same as in the photo above :

2 Bass Drum 22 "20
tom 8 "6"
tom 10 "6.5"
tom 12 "7"
a floor tom 14 "12"
a floor tom 16 "14

Finish

the color is matte black. I find this color not too suitable for different musical universe, but as always says, tastes and colors can not be discussed. the fittings are also black shiny. Despite the short depth of the toms, they are really impressive. collage is neat. I have not noticed any trace of glue on the inside. The drum is assembled with birch plies on the inside and lime plies on the outside. their thickness is 6-ply 6mm toms and 7plis 7mm for the bass drums.

Sound

So, how does it sound?

Fow the very short toms with lot of punch, this effect is accentuated by the circle cast.
for the bass drum, a sound full of power with great reserve under the pedal. It's interesting and fun to play with both contrast. It is unfortunate that sometimes the clips are moving when you play the tom.

It has a very interesting advantage for once the positioning of the toms on foot is not a puzzle you have a good stability of the latter, whatever its position

But I will not buy it personally. It is not polyvalent. It should be for music funk black-box type for metal rhythm or if trigger.

the value is difficult to judge because it is something very specific or you love it or hate it.

I really advise anyone interested in purchasing this model to try it before
