Offering unparalleled richness and range, the Starclassic Performer B/B has become the first choice of drummers who want a kit unlike anything else on the market today. For decades, Birch drums were the preferred choice among studio drummers all over the world. But Tama, recognizing that blending the extra-hard tonewood’s cracking attack and crystal clarity with the dark, rumbling of lows of Bubinga would create a fuller and fatter sound. The mastery of this combination is Starclassic Performer B/B. It’s no surprise that this series is played night after night by most of the drum maker’s artist roster.

Tama’s shorter-depth Hyper-Drive shell style has caught the attention of players in every genre. In terms of audience connection, the lower profile Hyper-Drive toms improve sight lines. And with a lower, flatter tom height, the player’s higher position over the drum greatly improves stick control. As well, the attack-heavy sonic character of Hyper-Drive delivers an extra helping of “cut” in thick mix situations.
The Starclassic Performer B/B line now includes Quick-Lock tom brackets and floor tom brackets. Originally developed for the company’s flagship STAR series, they offer lightning fast, locked-in set-ups and completely eliminate metal-to-metal contact. Combined with precision-cut bearing edges, die-cast hoops, the Star-Cast mounting system, and other innovative appointments, these upgrades help make the new Starclassic drums ideal for players in search of a truly professional instrument at a remarkably reasonable price.
