Description

Walnut/birch hybrid shells and Tama’s precision-cut bearing edges give the Tama 22″ Starclassic Walnut/Birch 4-Piece Shell Pack – Piano Black a deep fundamental with the fast attack needed to cut through a loud band. Birch keeps the front of each note crisp, while the inner American black walnut plies add darkness and weight through the mids and lows. With deeper 10″ and 12″ rack toms, a 16″ floor tom and a 22″ x 16″ bass drum, the configuration has the authority for rock and metal without losing definition in the studio.

Shell Pack Configuration:
  • 22″ x 16″ bass drum
  • 10″ x 8″ rack tom
  • 12″ x 9″ rack tom
  • 16″ x 14″ floor tom
Shell Construction and Bearing Edges:
  • 6 mm tom shells made from 4 outer plies of birch and 2 inner plies of American black walnut
  • 8 mm bass drum shell made from 5 outer plies of birch and 2 inner plies of American black walnut
  • Precision-cut bearing edges support consistent head seating, clear attack and dependable tuning
Mounting, Hardware and Drumheads:
  • Star-Cast rack tom suspension keeps brackets away from the shell and supports natural resonance
  • Die-cast hoops focus the attack and hold tuning firmly through hard playing
  • Quick-Lock tom brackets speed up repeatable setup for rehearsals and gigs
  • MTH1000 double tom holder for independent tom positioning
  • Factory-fitted Evans drumheads and chrome shell hardware
Sound, Tuning and Gigging:
  • The birch outer plies bring a sharp front edge, while walnut thickens the note and pulls the pitch towards a darker centre
  • Deeper rack toms have more body than fast-size shells and remain clearly separated when tuned low
  • The 16″ x 14″ floor tom has a strong low note with a quicker decay than a full-depth 16″ x 16″ shell
  • A 22″ x 16″ bass drum keeps the low end powerful and responsive for double-pedal work and closely miked stages
  • A serious working configuration for experienced rock, metal, fusion and session drummers who need projection, tuning stability and tonal depth
Finish:
  • Piano Black high-gloss lacquer with chrome shell hardware
Please Note:
  • 4-piece shell pack containing the listed bass drum and toms
  • MTH1000 double tom holder is included
  • Snare drum, cymbals, stands, bass drum pedal and throne are not included
