The legendary Tama Superstar name has defined excellence in drum manufacturing for over four decades, and the Superstar Classic Maple 5pc in Gloss Java Lacebark Pine continues this proud heritage. This remarkable kit combines the nostalgic charm of 1970s design elements?including the classic TAMA T–shape badge and streamlined low–mass single lugs?with cutting–edge innovations like the ingenious Star–Mount system and thinner gauge 100% maple shells that surpass anything in its class.
Sound quality remains the paramount focus in the Superstar series production, achieved through carefully selected maple shells and meticulous attention to shell moulding and bearing edge shaping. The tom toms, floor tom, and snare drum feature 6–ply, 5mm construction, while the bass drum utilises robust 8–ply, 7mm shells to produce the full, powerful character and rich resonance that discerning drummers demand.
The CL52 configuration includes a 22x16" bass drum, 10x8" and 12x9" tom toms, 16x14" floor tom, and 14x6.5" snare drum, complete with MTH600 double tom holder. The visually striking Gloss Lacebark Pine exterior ply showcases a complex wood grain pattern that gives this kit an extraordinary appearance, all backed by Tama's comprehensive 5–year limited warranty and offered at a remarkably competitive price point.
Power Craft II Drumheads
All Superstar's "Power Craft II" drum heads (except Duo snare batter head) ensure a great sound practically right out of the box! Ring mufflers on bass drum heads remove the need for extra internal muffling.
Claw Hook
These claw hooks stabilize the wood hoops on bass drums and feature built-in rubber lining which helps protect the wood and maintain tuning even during long performances.
Tom Holder
TAMA L-Rod and Omnisphere tom holder systems have received acclaim from drummers for over 25 years. These systems offer easy positioning, maximum flexibility, stability and greater sound than standard designs which penetrate the shell interior and can inhibit resonance.
Low-Mass Lugs
These small lugs are newly designed separate lugs for the Superstar Classic series. By reducing the surface area that the lugs occupy on the shell, a structure that does not hinder shell resonance is achieved.
Star-Mount System
The Star-Mount System was developed to increase the resonance of drums. This new mounting system provides support at four points on the batter side hoop of a drum.
The bracket eye-bolts slide to the left and right, so it's possible to prevent the eye-bolts from touching each other even when setting up two toms close to each other.
