A few words about the Tama mechanical drum and the Tama Starclassic Walnut/Birch drum line

Tama mechanical drums began production in 1965 under the name "Star Drums" and to this day this name is still used for the names of Tama drum models. In addition to drums, Tama is also a unit specializing in manufacturing and supplying sturdy, durable Hardware and drum mounting systems that do not violate the drum shell. Since then, drums (Bass, Tom Tom, Floor Tom, Snare) and Hardware from Tama have always been famous as one of the famous brands worldwide.

The Starclassic drum line from Tama has been evolving and evolving since 1994 to provide professional drummers with sound variations, solid performance and consistent value. The Starclassic case design includes drums in a variety of woods , including Birch, Maple, Hybrid Bubinga/Birch and Hybrid Walnut/Birch. Tama's evolution into the Hybrid shell has been appreciated by many drummers due to the diverse sound characteristics, excellent performance and powerful sound that the hybrid shell produces. Tama's Starclassic Performance line develops from the knowledge and understanding of Tama Starclassic mechanical drums, they provide extremely professional Tama sound components to redefine the art of sonic expression of a professional drum set. These experiences are undeniable to this day.

Bearing Edges (Cutting edge layer that bears the force of Tama mechanical drum shell)

The bearing shape is calculated by Tama for high sound efficiency.

The shape of the edge of the cue drum is one of the most important factors affecting the sound of the drum. Because the drumhead provides an important source of vibration, the shape of the contact point of the head and shell determines and determines the sound. This is why TAMA has put so much effort into achieving the most useful shape for the head and side of the drum.

The image shows a cross-section of the bearing edge of the drum. As shown at point A, the corner of the top edge is placed 2.5mm inward from the outside of the case. The edge is cut into a rounded neck to follow the natural shape of the drumhead (B). This design creates a better fit between the drum face and bearing lip, maximizing drum resonance. This bearing lip shape is part of TAMA manufacturer tradition and is important in delivering the unique acoustic drum sound.

Shells (Tama Starclassic Walnut/Birch drum shell structure)

Multi-layer drum shell design from Birch and American Black Walnut wood.

- Tom Tom drum, Floor Tom and Snare drum: Total thickness of 6 mm, including 4 layers of Birch wood + 2 inner layers of American Black Walnut wood.

- Bass drum: Total thickness of 8 mm, including 5 layers of Birch wood + 2 inner layers of American Black Walnut wood.

Hybrid Shells have excelled in the strong sound concentration ability of Poplar combined with the solid, warm character of Walnut wood. This sound is not only powerful but also sweet and mellow. Surely when playing the drum once, the player will have a strong impression and cannot be confused with any other type of drum.

In addition, the Walnut/Birch shell also makes an important contribution to the longer lifespan of this Tama Starclassic drum line.

Star-Cast Mounting System (Installation system to optimize sound resonance)

The Star-Cast mounting system always provides maximum resonance and stability for the drum.

Streamlined design makes it easier to place Tom Tom drums closer together for greater ease and comfort than ever before. In addition, switching to "aluminum" material brings lighter weight and more realistic sound vibration. Additionally, the Star-Cast system is now plated to match the drum case hardware!

Quick-Lock Tom Brackets

"Quick-Lock" Tom Brackets (quick-lock release bracket).

"Quick-Lock" Tom brackets are featured on the Star-Cast Mounting System and on the special Tom Starclassic Floor drums which have a number of groundbreaking features.

The brackets allow for quick and easy disassembly and installation. But the real unique feature of these stands is that when the drum is placed on the Tom Tom drum stand or Floor Tom stand, you do not need to insert and adjust separate memory locks to save the mounting position. Simply slide the latch switch on the Tom Tom drum stand and the stand will separate into two parts. When the drum is removed for replacement, the "lock memory" remains on the Tom drum stand or Floor Tom foot. This installation method makes setup quick and easy.

"Quick-Lock" Tom brackets also have some potential audio benefits. Following the same principle of reducing vibration transfer from the drum to the Tom Tom drum stand or Floor Tom foot, they also use rubber lining to add drum isolation and enhance resonance.

Swivel-Wing Tom Holder (Flexible rotating Tom Holder)

Flexible and independent Tom Tom drum swing arm.

This Tom Tom drum stand features Tama's multi-function ball system, allowing for extremely easy angle adjustment of the Tom Tom drum. Additionally, each ball can move around a 100mm back and forth arc, providing much more flexible positioning.

Drumhead from the world famous EVANS brand

EVANS drumheads are often highly appreciated for their professional sound quality.

Evans brand drumheads are included on all Starclassic drums (except the non-hitting bass drum). On the Floor Tom drum and stand, the drum beater is 2-ply Genera G2 and the other side is 1-ply TAMA Power Craft II for durability and solid sound. The Starclassic Bass Drum is equipped with a Genera EQ4 transparent drum surface.

Air Cushioned Floor Tom Legs (Air Cushioned Floor Tom Legs

Air Pocket rubber foot design is groundbreaking.

The Air Pocket brand rubber feet of the Tama Starclassic mechanical drums specifically have an air chamber, which helps prevent transmission of vibrations to the ground floor (muffling sound and sustain) and at the same time absorbs shocks to enhance the experience. play better.

Tama Starclassic Bass Drum Spur Bracket (Bass Drum Spur Bracket

Tama Starclassic WBS42S Bass Kick Drum Stand.

TAMA's MSB30 die-cast bracket (Model MSB30 Bracket) holds the drum securely in place thanks to the same strong hinge mechanism used on the MTB30 mounting bracket. The different mnemonic notches that we see on the drum stand, they help simplify the installation.

Claw Hooks (Innovative rim retaining hooks for better drum protection)

The Claw Hooks of the Tama Starclassic mechanical drum are equipped with rubber cushions to prolong their life.

The rubber gasket helps protect the wooden rim from being directly squeezed by the metal shell to minimize damage and increase drum usage time. The hooks and rims act as a solid unit; they will not separate or rattle, even when the adjustment is loosened.

Die-Cast Hoops (Monolithic metal cast drum rims)

Hoops made of solid metal largely determine sound quality.

This is why drum ring selection is so important to TAMA's professional drum line designers.

The Tama brand chooses zinc die-cast rings, which are produced by pouring molten metal into a mold. Die-cast rings have higher density and more consistent shape than 3-rim rings (which are produced by bending metal sheets).

Molded rings make adjustments more stable and easier to achieve because the tension bolts always make proper contact with the ring. In terms of sound, molded bezels provide sharper, louder, more powerful and longer-lasting sound due to density and shape consistency.
