The Premier Genista maple 4-piece shell pack gives you a versatile set of premium maple drums with a bold retro aesthetic. Crafted for drummers seeking rich, warm tone, this shell pack delivers exceptional resonance and projection. The 100% maple shells provide balanced articulation and robust low end, while the retooled Genista lugs pay homage to Premier's iconic vintage hardware. With a variety of lacquer finishes to choose from, the Genista maple shell pack lets you make a visual statement on stage.

All-Maple Shells for Warm, Punchy Sound

At the heart of the Genista maple kit sits a trio of high-quality 7-ply maple toms, while the kick drum has a thicker 9-ply shell for enhanced low-end response. Maple is a highly resonant wood that produces a warm, rounded tone with solid punch. The shells are precision cut with sharp 45-degree bearing edges that maximize resonance and attack. The result is a set of drums that cut through the mix with a full, assertive voice.

Vintage-Styled Genista Lugs

A standout feature of this shell pack is the inclusion of Premier's iconic Genista lugs. First introduced in the 1990s, these cast metal lugs have a bold, retro look with separate tension rods for the top and bottom heads. Premier has retooled the Genista lugs to original factory specifications, giving this modern shell pack a tangible link to the brand's history. The larger bass drum lugs are mounted on molded isolation mounts to prevent sympathetic vibration for a tight, controlled low end.

Roadworthy Design With Premium Components

While the Genista maple shell pack has a vintage vibe, it's built to handle the demands of today's drummer. It features 2.3 mm triple-flange steel hoops, die-cast claw hooks and fully lacquered bass drum hoops for durability. The mounted toms attach via a low-profile ISO mounting system that provides stability without sacrificing tone. Memory locks on the tom brackets make for quick, dependable setup and breakdown. Remo Pinstripe UT drumheads come pre-installed so you can start playing right out of the box.

Choose a Striking Finish

The Genista Maple Shell Pack is available in a selection of gloss lacquer and sparkle lacquer finishes. These durable, high-gloss finishes complement the retro styling of the hardware and give the drums a fashionable appearance under stage lighting. With its blend of vintage design and modern performance, the Premier Genista maple 4-piece shell pack lets you craft a sound and style all your own.
