Tama drum shellset with Walnut Birch tone
If you are looking for a drum shellset with a clear blend of warmth and attack, the Tama WBS52RZS-MPB Starclassic Walnut Birch stands out. This set combines birch with inner plies of American Black Walnut, which gives strong low and mid frequencies, a warm foundation and a very bright, articulate stick attack because of birch's high-frequency response.
The tom and floor tom shells are 6 mm thick and built from 4 plies of Birch with 2 inner plies of American Black Walnut. The bass drum uses an 8 mm shell with 5 plies of Birch and 2 inner plies of American Black Walnut, matching the character of this Starclassic Walnut Birch series.
