PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Power. Flexibility. Visibility. With Tama Hyper-Drive kits, your audience will hear your every note and see your every move. Hyper-Drive's unique and perfect combination of modern and traditional drum sizes offers sonic power with clarity, unparalleled set-up flexibility, and complete performance visibility.
How often have you imagined the drums you’d like to play? The sound. The professional hardware. The finish gleaming in the spotlights. Then you wake up and see what you can really afford. Kind of an unwelcome reality check—unless you’ve seen and played Tama Superstar. Superstar has all the killer looks and in-your-face attitude you expect from a pro rock set. But Superstar is “More Than Just Attitude.” Superstar provides all the power, projection, and durability you expect from professional kit, but at a price that’s much less than the traditional intermediate set. In sound, features looks and quality, Superstar breaks thru the price barriers and delivers the goods—all the sound and all the attitude you ever dreamed of.
Hyper-Drive is the “New standard depth” size on tom toms. Its short depth creates enhanced attack, punchy sound and quick response. And more it allows you to set up the rack toms in lower positions so you can post the toms more freely.
Shells
The highest priority feature when developing the 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 ply on all superstar shells. Precisely cut bearing edges bring out the great response and powerful resonance of these superbly crafted shells.
Black Nickel Shell Hardware
In Superstar Hyper-Drive, all shell hardware is finished in Black Nickel Plated. The beautiful looking produces a higher-grade sense of quality.
Star-Cast Mounting System
All Superstar Hyper-Drive rack toms are fitted with a Star-Cast Mounting System similar to the Starclassic drums. This unique system offers total tom isolation and unhindered shell resonance without any adverse effect on tuning or complicated head changes found in less advanced suspension systems.
Sound Bridge High-Tension Lugs (Superstar Hyper-Drive)
The Sound Bridge high-tension, low-mass lug was specifically designed for Superstar. Sound Bridge's unique structure looks much like a traditional high-tension lug, but the body of the lug "floats" over the shell to minimize shell contact so the drum can resonate to its fullest. However, Sound Bridge still offers all the benefits of the traditional high-tension lug: it offsets the tension of the batter side and bottom side heads, reduces the stress on the shell, and provides greater protection to the drum shell during transport.
Black Nickel Shell Hardware
In Superstar Hyper-Drive, all shell hardware is finished in Black Nickel Plating. The beautiful look produces a higher-grade feel.
20 Inch Ultra Deep Bass Drums
With Superstar Hyper-Drive, the 20x22 inch Ultra Deep bass drum size is now available. This size provides thunderous low end combined with maximum resonance.
Die-Cast Hoops
No other drum embodies pro features at an affordable price like superstar. In a first for this price range, Superstar is equipped with the same zinc die-cast hoops featured on Starclassic drums. Die-Cast hoops not only make tuning easier and more consistent, they also provide crisp attack, clear and resonant highs and much more powerful rim shots.
Power Craft Drumheads
All Superstar's "Power Craft" drum heads ensure a great sound practically right out of the box! Batter side heads are made of Dupont Mylar film for richer tone and greater durability. Ring mufflers on bass drum heads remove the need for extra internal muffling.
Quick-set Tilter
All Superstar's catalog kits come standard with upgraded Roadpro cymbal stands.The toothless "Quick-set" cymbal tilter lets you adjust the angle freely and hold it in position by the friction of six metal disc plates instead of gears. You're completely free to adjust it to any angle you desire. This mechanism also has a more durable structure than the conventional gear tilter.
