TAMA

collapse expand iconDescription

For nearly forty years the Superstar name has stood for groundbreaking design, superior build quality, sterling tone, and clear projection. Now Tama introduces this legendary kit in its most sonically aggressive persona yet...featuring 100% maple shells. Thinner and livelier than ever, the Tama designers have dialed in the perfect combination of sensitivity and high-end "cut."

Drawing on Superstar of the past, its classic Tama T-shape badge and streamlined low-mass single lugs point to the simpler state of art of the '70s, while the ingenious ­Star-Mount system eclipses everything in its class-all at a surprisingly affordable price.

Amazing deal. Professional sounding.

I got this outstanding kit in the blue lacquer. This thing is awesome. This was my second kit and my first Tama and I'm really impressed. I seen it while lookin inside guitar center and fell in love with the color. Then I seen the price. for a 7 piece Tama it's one heck of a deal. You can't hardly find kits this big for low prices. I'm really impressed with the way the factory heads sounded also. I Won't change theme until needed. If you got money and want this kit buy it you should get it. It's one of the best deals I've seen.

Very nice for the price. I add a 13'' tom .much better

Great looking set, Bass drum is powerful. I added a 13'' tom tom to complete my sound. 8 piece drum set. staring on the 12 then 13 and end 14 gave me that fat low sound . 240 for extra for tom. changed the heads . ludwig black beauty snare . very fun to play on a budget.

    42 years with the same excellent Rogers set, I felt ready for a technology change. After shopping for several months it was very clear that this set in transparent blue couldn't be beat--sorry for the bad pun! The value proposition was very strong.

  • I love my new superstar classic drum Set!

    I am so pleased with my purchase! I read all the reviews, good and bad, and I have nothing negative to add. For me, they sound amazing right out of the box! Look amazing as well!

    I've seen multiple ways people define "Shell Pack." Does this kit come with a snare stand and/or kick pedal?

    Are the tom tom arms adjustable? As in up and down? Or can the toms themselves slide up and down?

    I need to know if the tom holder is included with the bass drum and also if toms come ready to mount. Do you have the actual hardware in the picture grouped together in a separate set? I would like to be able to purchase everything I need to create this setup right out of the box. I already have cymbals.
