NAMM 2011 Update: TAMA adds two new finishes to Starclassic

TAMA, one of the world’s largest drum set and hardware manufacturers, is adding two new finishes to their top of the line, high-quality Starclassic drum kit series. Now Starclassic Bubinga (known for its aggressive attack, dark tone and powerful resonance) will be also offered in Volcanic Red Burst finish, while thin-shelled Starclassic Maple will come with the option of Molten Satin Brown Burst.

With flowing organic patterns that aim to enhance the kits’ presence under normal stage lightning, what sets these new Starclassic finishes apart from all others in their catalogue, which currently offers dozens of different finishes for each of these Starclassic models, is the uniqueness of how they are created. Each individual shell is meticulously treated and finished, making every single drum a unique and unmatchable piece of art on its own, a process as unique as its results. TAMA also wants to remind their fans that the only new part of these kits it’s their finish, the sound and quality of the already known Starclassic Series is still there, unchanged and unmatchable.
