Tama has worked extensively into finding a way to get the most out of their drum shells, discovering that the bearing edge is a vital part of how a drum can sound. For this reason on their Starclassic range, Tama has set a bearing edge of 2.5mm cut to a round collar, following the natural shape of the drum head. This creates a better fit between drum shell and drum head, maximising drum resonance helping to attain optimum drum sounds.
The most notable part of the Starclassic Walnut/Birch Gold Edition range is the eye-catching aesthetic. Tama has constructed the shell from 4ply Birch, 2ply Walnut and an outer ply of Tamo Ash Laquer to fully complete a majestic looking shell. The shell combined with the gold satin hoops and hardware all perfectly compliment the overall look, providing a sense of uniqueness. The stunning gold aesthetic would pair well with the Tama Iron Cobra 600 Series Gold Edition Pedal range (sold separately) to complete the gold theme. This range provides high-quality tones whilst also delivering the feeling of something quite special.
