Offering a deep brown tone filled with lighter grain accents, this Tama shell pack has an eye-catching aesthetic.

The natural finish and wood grained appearance of the shells is complemented brilliantly by the contrasting light chrome hardware.

The 70s style low mass lugs and elegant Java Burst finish are topped off perfectly by the old school T-shaped Tama badge which gives a nod to the history of this well-established, well-respected drum company.

Mighty Maple

Maple is widely used within drum building because of its all-purpose tone.

Delivering even amounts of high and mid frequencies, maple produces a lusciously warm low-end response making it ideal for a wide range of musical styles.

Featuring a 100% maple construction the toms and snare have a 6-ply / 5mm build, while the bass drum has a slightly thicker 8ply / 7mm shell for a kit with a full, powerful character.

Tama have made sound quality their top priority in the creation of their Superstar Classic kits and it really shows.

The kit features carefully selected maple shells that have gone through an intently focussed shell moulding process before the cutting of the bearing edge shape.

Delivering full, rich resonance with great clear projection, this Tama drum kit produces the power needed to cut through in live situations and the depth of tone required for studio recording.

Versatile Configuration

Having the wide range of tonal options offered by a 7-piece drum kit essentially means you can tailor your configuration to meet your needs each time you play.

From a minimal 1 up 1 down set up through to a full 3 up 2 down, this drum kit provides a range of options to ensure you always have the exact sound you require.

From a compact, portable bop kit configuration to a full-on prog rock affair, you can create your ideal kit with this Tama Superstar Classic 7-piece shell pack.

Star-Mount System

Specifically developed to increase drum resonance, the Tama Star Mount provides 4 support points along the batter side hoop for secure and reliable mounting.

The Star Mount rim connects to the tension rods of the top hoop to ensure a strong hold that remains separate from the shell at all times.

Preventing the mounting system from touching the drum shell ensures unimpeded resonance and increased shell vibration for full, rich tom resonance and projection.

Aiding further flexibility and comfortable positioning, the bracket eye-bolts of the Star Mount System slide to the left and right to prevent the eye-bolts from touching each other even when toms are positioned close together.

This means you can always achieve your ideal tom placement for a comfortable playing position every time.

Omnisphere Tom Holder

In addition to the Star-Mount System, the Tama Superstar Classic includes a Tama L-Rod and Omnisphere Tom Holder system.

Providing strong, stable and secure tom mounting from the bass drum, the acclaimed omnisphere mount design provides easy positioning, maximum flexibility and reliable stability.

Specifically designed to prevent impedance of the tom sound, Tama have taken great care to create a tom holder that aids resonance rather that dampening the drum shell.

Delivering better sound than standard tom mount designs that penetrate the shell interior and inhibit resonance, the tom omnisphere and L-arm ensure precise tom placement without jeopardising the tone.

The small 8 inch rack tom also comes complete with the Tama MC69 Single Tom Attachment for easy and secure mounting of the tom from a hardware stand.

Low Mass Lugs

Delivering a classic look in keeping with the name of the drum kit, the streamlined low mass single lugs of the Tama Superstar Classic give a nod to the sleek art and design of 1970s drum kits.

The Java Burst Tama Superstar Classic kit features the newly design low mass lugs which, not only add a sleek appearance to the kit but also benefit the overall drum sound.

By reducing the surface area that the lugs occupy, Tama have been able to limit the contact between the lugs and the shell which helps to prevent impedance of the shell vibration.

The result is a stylish, compact lug that doesn't hinder drum resonance but instead maintains minimal contact with the shell to ensure as little interference with the sound as possible.

Bass Hooks

The 22 inch bass drum of the Tama Superstar Classic is fitted with claw hooks which work to stabilise the wood hoops on the bass drum.

Fitted with a built-in lining to protect the wood, the lined claws maintain consistent bass drum tuning for a reliable, long lasting performance.

Power Craft Heads

The Superstar Classic Maple Drum Kit is fitted with Power Craft 2 drumheads as standard to deliver great tone straight out of the box.

The toms and bass feature clear Superstar power craft 2 heads and the snare has a coated duo snare batter head for a durable and responsive feel.

The bass drum head also features ring mufflers preventing the need for extra internal muffling and ensuring an instantly satisfying bass response.
