Key Features
Product Ref: 76684
The Tama Starclassic Performer B/B combines two woods to achieve a dynamic and versatile tone that is favoured among many professionals the world over. With so many high profile artists having embraced the unique sound of B/B, its significance in today's music cannot be understated.
With an unconventional combination of depth and a biting attack, Bubinga features a very aggressive attack coupled with an intense depth and sustain.
Birch is capable of a wide set of tonal personalities that enable the drum to project a versatile and dynamic tone. Quite often, birch is employed to produce a tighter, controlled character, which has resulted in a reputation among recording engineers as being “naturally EQ'd.”
The unsurpassed dynamic range of the bubinga/birch combination has made Starclassic B/B a favorite among elite pro drummers who need sonic power without sacrificing warmth and nuance. The combination of these woods allows for a lower fundamental tone with slightly raised mids and a strong attack of birch.
Tama's innovative Star-Mount system maximises the drums resonance, also providing support at four separate points on the batter side hoop of the drums.
With up to 40 years within the drum industry, Tama has developed a unique brand that prioritises both great tonal quality and outstanding aesthetics. With an eclectic list of artists on their roster, Tama has consistently delivered high quality percussion to a multitude of musicians over the years. This extensive list includes the likes of Animals as Leaders Drummer Matt Garstka, Anthrax's Charlie Benante, ZZ Top's Frank Beard and Kendrick Lamar's Rico Nichols. Tama drums accentuate each individual's specific nuanced style of playing and give the player unparalleled tone and versatility.
