SPOTLIGHT REVIEW
Sound: these drums are phenominal. I am done shopping for drum sets. Maybe one day I'll go custom, but these are amazing. The toms give amazing resonance and clarity. I don't even muffle the kick drum at all. You can really feel the kick in your chest. Feature: Everything with this set is great. I just don't like the clamp used to hold the low tom with the set I got. It works perfectly, but I already had one and it is a little loose. The Starcast mounts are amazing. The omni-sphere is better than you'd think. With Pearl sets, you get tom mounts that have teeth, which means they don't have infinite angles. The tom could be at an angle that you don't like, but you'll have to deal with it all because the mounts have teeth. Omni-spheres make it so that you can have it at whatever angle you want, plus, they don't get in the way as much as Pearl mounts. I have last years model, which has different starcast mounts. personally, I think the old ones are better. the new ones overdo the shine. I like the old, black mounts. Ease of Use: unless you're completely stupid, this thing is incredibly easy to work. Tuning is no problem. If you like resonance, this drum has it. If you like your toms to sound dead, this set can also do that, then again, so can any set. Quality: Amazing quality. I spend alot of time just looking at this drumset. I have the Dark Cherry Fade finish and it's amazing. This thing is built like a tank. Manufacturer Support: I want to get an additional tom, and it requires the starcast mounts. I hate the new starcast mounts and prefer last years black mounts. I emailed Tama and they replied back the next day with everything I needed to know. great support The Wow Factor: this thing looks amazing. I have the Dark Cherry Fade, and it's very eye-catching. amazing looks. the new starcast mounts add too much shine to it though. the old mounts were better Overall: I'm done looking for new drumsets. Maybe one day I'll get custom drums, but these are the best I've found. I prefer these to sets that cost way more. It beat out the entire competition (including various DWs, Pearl, Yamaha, Ludwig, and Mapex which I might add are horrible drums)

VERIFIED BUYER
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Sound: Very nice dark tone. They growl. They have an amazing open, warm, and inviting sound to them. Feature: I have the 5 piece Red Sparkle Fade shell kit. I had to buy all my own hardware. Needless to say, I spent a fortune. My philosophy is that these drums are built solid and sound great. They are unique and worth every penny. Ease of Use: No problems Quality: Built to last.....this is my one and only.....forever Value: I got a killer deal on my shell kit so I can't complain Manufacturer Support: Haven't needed it yet, but my experiences with Tama have been nothing but the best The Wow Factor: The Red Sparkle Fade is just breathtakingly beautiful. I knew it had to be mine when I first saw it on the floor. It was love at first sight. The minute I kicked the bass drum I fell in love. Overall: I have heard a lot of drums. A lot of them sound very polished to me. To me, these just sound the way drums should sound. They have a natural, raw, thunderous boom to them. I absolutely just love these.
