Tama SX52F Superstar EFX Fusion 5-Piece Drum Kit



Tama Superstar drum sets are one of the most important introductions in the Tama's history. Superstar represents as radical a departure as Tama's Starclassic Performer did, which brought the entire intermediate drum set category back to life. With die-cast hoops and Star-Cast mounting and meticulous made shells, Superstar represents an completely new class and category of drums.

All Superstars feature zinc die-cast hoops and the Star-Cast mounting system. Also notable is use of high-tension lugs, which have been updated with a low-mass, low contact design Tama calls 'Sound Bridge.'

The drums are the first products from Tama's new factory in mainland China

Birch & Basswood Shells

Bass Drum: 7ply, 7mm

Tom Tom, Floor Tom & Snare Drum: 6ply, 6mm

Tama's highest priority feature when developing the new Superstar series was sound. Superstar shells use birch for the main inner plies for strong projection and aggressive open sound. To enhance Superstar's great looks, basswood, with its excellent consistency and regular grain patterns, is utilized for the inner plies on all Superstar shells as well as the outer plies on Superstar Custom SL. Precisely cut bearing edges bring out the great response and powerful resonance of these superbly crafted shells.
