What’s So Great About Buying Drums from Sweetwater?


Premium die-cast zinc hoops provide consistent tuning and superior tone





Did you know that the hoops on your drum affect far more than your tuning stability? That's why TAMA created premium die-cast zinc hoops for their Starclassic maple/birch toms. Manufactured via a high-density injection molding process, rather than a conventionally stamped triple-flanged hoop method, these extremely consistent hoops provide uniform bolt contact and give your Starclassic shell pack a crisper attack with added high-end resonance.





Evans durability and consistency





The toms included in this Starclassic shell pack feature Evans G1 coated batter and TAMA clear single-ply Power Craft II resonant heads, while the bass drum makes use of an EQ4 clear batter head. The G1 provides a blend of sustain, warmth, and sensitivity via a 10-mil single-ply film. Exclusive 10-mil single-ply film construction imbues the EQ4 with durability and a woody attack that speaks ? both live and in the studio. All of these drumheads are versatile, making them an ideal choice for drummers who switch between a variety of styles.





TAMA crafts top-shelf drums for top-shelf drummers





TAMA builds drums with painstaking attention to detail, precision, and care to deliver the best drums possible. And countless touring drummers and session aces, as diverse as Anika Nilles and Metallica’s Lars Ulrich, are proud TAMA timekeepers. In addition to crafting superb drums, TAMA is also determined to innovate on the hardware front. The company’s Iron Cobra bass drum pedals are among the world’s most popular, and you’ll find that cymbal stands, snare stands, and drum thrones from TAMA are just as sturdy and reliable.
