Pacific Drums & Percussion Drum Set PDP Concept Maple 7-Piece, Satin Olive Shell Pack (PDCM2217SO)

Product Information

The build quality is also excellent. Yamaha uses the same high-quality hardware (including YESS tom mounts) for the Stage Custom as they use for their top-of-the-range drum sets. The overall craftsmanship and attention to detail are outstanding considering the affordability of these drums. It’s a premium-priced drum set, but if you’re looking to own one of the best professional kits available, the Star is seriously worth considering. The new PDP Concept Maple is a striking modern drum set. The design is influenced by DW’s high-end drums; the shells, hardware, lugs, and finishes resemble the top-of-the-range Collector’s Series. Professional drum kits will first and foremost be constructed with better quality materials, and with better care and attention to detail throughout. The wood shells feature precisely cut bearing edges and they will also be perfectly round.

The Superstar Classic Maple Drum Kit is fitted with Power Craft 2 drumheads as standard to deliver great tone straight out of the box. Having a 7-piece shell configuration enables easy setup flexibility allowing you to tailor your kit to meet changing requirements. I love the sound of this kit, and I’m a big fan of how these shells sound with the more rounded 30-degree bearing edges. It provides a warmer yet punchy and full tone.

Today, there are many different types of drums & percussion instruments available, including acoustic and electronic drum kits, snare drums, congas, bongos, timpani, marimbas, vibraphones, tambourines, and more. One of the best things about having a 7-piece kit like the PDP Concept Maple and the Gretsch Catalina Maple is the diversity it gives you in your drum setup. You don’t have to set up each of the seven drums each time. You can choose to place different-sized toms for varying configurations. The hi-hat cymbals are a pair of cymbals that close against each other using a foot operated pedal. Hi-hat cymbals are typically 14″ in diameter but are available in a range of other sizes. Hi-Hats It’s fairly similar to the previous kits. However, it has a few unique features that are exclusive to Tama drums.

The stool that you sit on is known as a ‘drum throne’. It’s typically a round padded stool with 3 chrome legs. The height of the throne is really down to personal preference but normally you should ensure you can put your feet flat on the floor and your thighs should be sloping downwards slightly. We cover more about drum kit posture on the Drum 101 beginner level course. Drum Stool / Throne 3. The Hi-Hats The drums are made with 6-ply maple shells. Each one has an impressive low-end tone that tends to work quite well in studio settings. The kit also displays a smooth midrange sound when tuned appropriately. The finish options available with the DW Design Series are all very attractive and the configurations are perfect for modern drummers.

These drums boast professional-level features including newly designed mini-turret lugs, True-Pitch tuning rods, concise bearing edges, a MAG snare drum throw-off, and more. The drums are also equipped with Remo drum heads on the batter and resonant heads.
