Your buying a Tama Starclassic 13″ Diameter X 6″ Deep Snare Drum with a Maple Shell.  This Snare is finished in
Figured Caribbean Blue Fade
and Black Nickel hardware.
For the optimum transfer of vibrations from head to shell, a
thinner shell is better. However, less thickness often equals less strength.
Instead of simply making thinner shells by using fewer plies, TAMA slims down
each ply and then cross laminates them into a
8ply Maple + 1 outer ply Movingui 7mm
. This combination results in a thinner shell that’s actually
stronger than others of greater thickness. Starclassic shells utilize maple,
the most popular shell material today because of its warm clear sound.
Features:
Hoops not only affect drum tuning; they
also affect drum sound. That’s why the choice of hoops was so important to the
designers of TAMA’s professional drum lines. For our Starclassic Series, we
choose zinc die-cast hoops, which are manufactured by injecting molten metal
into molds. Die-cast hoops have more density and are more consistent in shape
than triple flanged hoops, which are manufactured by bending metal plates.
Die-cast hoops make tuning more consistent and easier to achieve because the
tension bolts always contact the hoop properly. Drums fitted with die-cast
hoops also offer crisper attack, clear and resonant highs and much more
powerful rim shots.
Starclassic’s new strainer uses a “Linear-Drive”
system, which we designed to provide greater control of the lever adjustment
arm and more precise control of the strainer’s deployment motion. Even if you
move the arm rapidly, you will not hear the typical “slap” of the
wires hitting the bottom head. The strainer movement is designed to work in a
true linear motion, similar to the motion found on round-sprocket drum pedals.
Most strainers are designed differently and tend to speed up right before the
snare wires connect with the snare side head. Also, by tilting the angle of the
butt plate 30 degrees, this design holds the snare wire cords or tape more
firmly and reduces unnecessary pressure on the strainer and shell.
The MLS50B not only allows subtle snappy snare adjustments,
you can change your snare side head without removing the snare wires. Just
loosen two screws and the snare wires easily detach from the butt.
Reattachment—with your original set-up intact—is just as simple.
The Hold Tight™ washer is a totally unique invention: a
non-loosening washer! Its cup-shaped stainless steel washer contains a rubber
ring so the tension rod pushes both the cup washer and the rubber ring.
Normally, vibrations will eventually loosen the tension rod. But the softness
of Hold Tight’s rubber ring keeps it in contact with both the tension rod and
the hoop at all times and maintains friction between them so that tension is
always preserved.
In order to provide a crisper and more sensitive sound, we
redesigned our snappy snare using new materials and customizing the shape of
the plate and the wire coil’s winding pattern. As a result of these
modifications, the new Super Sensitive Hi-Carbon Snappy Snare fits closer to
the snare side head, providing greater sensitivity and a brighter, crisper
sound.
