Im with Alan Smith, Im not normally a Tama guy for Rock drums. I love their toms but their kicks dont have any volume. I guess I just like a 45, double 45 or 60 bearing edge. But you do make them sing. Ive said this before to you but Ill say it again, you are a genius at tuning heads. You get so much tone out of double ply heads.
@@MrGuitarandvocals Yeah, it's real subjective. Tama kicks just don't have the same volume as the Yamaha Stage Custom Birch, Yamaha Tour Custom Maple. Or the Pearl Masters Maple Gum or DW Collectors SSC Maple or Maple Spruce. Great toms though. I have the same feelings about Gretch. Great toms but under volume kicks. Although I will say Tama's new Acrylic Starclassic Mirage and Superstar Birch 50th anniversary kits are fantastic with real articulate kicks.
@@Rick-m3c My Tama kicks were 7mm in thickness. I can understand having volume issues with kicks that have a thinner shell recipe. I only buy thicker shells so I don't have to worry about this problem. My Pearl kicks are 7.5 mm and they are cannons. The toms are also 7.5 mm in thickness as well and they cut like a razor.
@@ineedabassist I'm thinking about the same. To adapt my basement for drums :D it's all about the money ha ha ha - the kit in the clip... ah... I would like to have a the same kit + 8'' tom.
I know so many drummer’s that play this brand, especially hard-core metal drummers. I just don’t know what it is, but the sound of these drums just doesn’t do it for me at all. I don’t know if it’s the birch or not but they just don’t seem to project. I hear no bottom end no punch no warmth. That’s what my head hears
It’s the die cast hoops all around the toms that shorten the sustain, giving them a very focused attack, but also Evans heads tend to sound dead to many people’s ears, so that could be the cause. If you play arenas like most Tama artists, the sound is fantastic.
Not normally a Tama guy, but these sound exceptional.
My dream drumset ✨
Great playing 🔥
My piano black w/b is arriving in July. Can't wait!
this is the kit you want. i have this exact kit! warning: bass is heavy af!
Great drums and cymbals and drummer as well.
I bought one because of this video
That IS a Beautiful Kit.
Sono rimasto colpito dal batterista, fenomenale. Complimenti
Hi! Thanks for the great review!! What drum kit does Patrik Benek use most of the time??? :) Thanks and Pohoda!! :)

I have never had any issues with Tama kicks lacking volume.

@@MrGuitarandvocals Thanks for the advice Mr. G. I'm sure someone has a comparison video on that, perhaps 'Sounds Like a Drum.'
@@Rick-m3c
You as well brother! Both of our responses are correct.
Terrific!
these sound a bit more attacky than the maple birch, no?
Where can I find this exact drum set … all the ones in the US have bass drum Tom mount and I don’t want that one
I started with an imperial star, and now I have a superstar classic all maple. I want this kit once I feel I deserve it.
check out the tama star line if you haven't already, the walnut is my favorite
@user-qw5dw7zb5r That's too much drum for me. Maybe if I had a studio, but even then, the sound wouldn't be that noticeable.
@@shanehaney2121 i can see where your coming from but i tuned my basement into a home studio 😂

Im waiting for my Nebula Mappa Burl kit to arrive, so im watching every video of starclassic kits on TH-cam 😂
Great sounding kit. Especially those floor toms.
I want this kit soooo bad 😢
i play the tama superstar classic same class as the Yamaha Stage Custom two of the best starting kit
The 10" sounds dead.. Then the 14" sounds like its tuned too high. Not sure on the toms on this Starclassic kit. Hard to find a kit these days.
yeah they are like 1000 more expensive than the maple birch, thats why they sound better
These have better hardware than the maple/birch kits too
