About Mapex
Mapex is the factory brand name for drums made by KHS Manufacturing Company and one of only a few drum brands made in its own factory and having its own distribution center in the US. This Distribution and Service Center is located in Nashville, Tennessee. KHS makes all types of percussion as well as fine band and orchestra instruments. KHS craftspeople possess extraordinary knowledge about how quality sound and functions is produced from all types of wood and metal, including precious metals. The sound quality heard from Honduran rosewood used on marimbas made in KHS factories, or from Sterling Silver and 14K Gold used in making artist quality flutes are just 2 examples of a skill that crosses over to Mapex drums and hardware.

Mapex drums are more than wood and metallic chambers having other metal parts that tighten a head. They are precision instruments whose tuning and voicing are like no other because of KHS' unique manufacturing capability and our association with the world's top professionals. No matter what music, beat or rhythm they play... drummers are sure to find the sound they want when they choose Mapex. You will see what they mean when they say Mapex is truly 'the drummer's other voice'.

"Great looks,awesome sounding at a cheap price a drummers dream come true!"

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
This is my extra set for playing smaller gigs and jamming with other bands. My regular set that I use in our studio is a vintage early 70's 10 piece custom ludwig with 26in bass drums and all over sized toms.
Sound
Awesome natural tone, great for beginners or advanced drummers. Easy tuning and durable. Great sounding at any volume. Put a mike on the kick drum for live gigs with sound damper rings on the toms and snare and you have the perfect mix in low to medium volume situations.
Features
Hardware is tough enough to take heavy players. I wish they sold seperate ride and floor toms.
Quality
The finish is fairly durable, but will scratch if contact with other drums or equipment. I would suggest cases if you move them alot or play out alot.
Value
Yes, very much so.
Manufacturer Support
I wish they sold seperate ride and floor toms in other sizes.
The Wow Factor
