It’s unique Halo suspension mounting system gives your rack toms their own rings of Saturn and allows you to control the resonance.

The brand new Saturn Evolution Series features a full range of sizes and blends that push the classic Mapex sound to its full potential. Hybrid shells of Birch/Walnut and Maple/Walnut are lacquered in a stunning range of finishes.

The order of the ply blend in the Evolutions hybrid shell has been adjusted to move the Walnut element to the central of the bearing edge, bringing a warmer, slightly darker voice to the range.

Rack and Floor Toms up to 16โ€ are Dual Vented on the nodal line, while BassDrums and 18โ€ Floors are all Quad Vented to allow frequencies to be evenly distributed.

Floor Toms all feature the new 90 degree leg, a feature from the Design Lab range, with new gaskets and Sonic Pedestal feet allowing the shells to resonate freely.

The new Mapex Halo mount features on all Saturn Evolution toms, and provides freedom of full resonance.ย Using a lateral and unique โ€œunder lug-lineโ€ suspension system, this groundbreaking isolation mount, allows the shell to speak with an open, pure tone, without the stiffness usually associated with under hoop mounting systems.

20% off all Stools when bought with drum kits

Many drum kits including this one don’t come with a stool included so we’ve set up this great offer so that you can choose your own one.
