Starclassic Bubinga
Stimulating any DRUMMER'S CREATIVITY

Starclassic Bubinga shells are slightly thicker than those in our Starclassic Maple series for a more aggressive attack, a fuller deep/dark tone and more powerful resonance. We offer numerous options to meet the professional drummer's wide and critical needs.
There are more than 50 different shell sizes. The use of maple for the outer-ply enables us to offer differnet lacquer shell finishes, and glitter wrap finishes are now available. Starclassic Bubinga also features three shell hardware finishes to choose from: Black Nickel, Brushed Nickel and Chrome. Starclassic Bubinga is simply an unprecedented combination of sight and sound.

Features

Shells (Starclassic Bubinga)



8ply Bubinga + 1 outer ply Maple shell

TT/FT:7mm
BD:8mm

African bubinga wood is approximately 53% harder than maple and birch.
Acoustically speaking, bubinga provides very sharp and aggressive attack combined with unbelievably rich and fat lows.

Our bubinga shells are slightly thicker than our maple drums which we have determined allows the drums to speak to their fullest. The outer maple ply allows us to offer a much wider selection of colors.

Minimum Shell Contact (Starclassic Bubinga ELITE/Bubinga)



Our designers never stop looking for new ways to increase drum resonance. Nothing is too small to consider because many minutes improvements can add up to a signifcant difference in sound. Two good examples of this kind of exacting research are the replacement of the traditional metal badge with the new imprinted insignia and the small metal soundhole with one made of maple.

Shell Depths (Staclassic Bubinga ELITE/Bubinga)



To achieve the sound and response you are looking for, Starclassic Bubinga offer a choice of six different depths ranging from the shallow Hyper-Drive to the cavernous X-tra Deep.
Also, the 20"x22" Ultra Deep bass drum size. This size provides thunderous low end combined with maximum resonance.

*Hyper-Drive sizes: 6"x8", 6.5"x10", 7"x12", 7.5"x13", 8"x14"

Star-Cast Mounting System(US.PAT.NO.5454288)

(Starclassic Bubinga ELITE/Bubinga)



The Star-Cast Mounting System has always provided maximum resonance and stability for TAMA's pro-drums. A streamlined design makes it easier to position toms closer together for greater ease and comfort than ever before. In addition, a switch to aluminum provides lighter weight and even truer tonal vibration. Last but not least, Star-Cast is now plated to match your drum's shell hardware!

Die-Cast Hoops



Hoops not only affect drum tuning; they also affect drum sound. That's why the choice of hoops was so important to the designers of TAMA's professional drum lines. For our Starclassic Series, we choose zinc die-cast hoops, which are manufactured by injecting molten metal into molds. Die-cast hoops have more density and are more consistent in shape than triple flanged hoops, which are manufactured by bending metal plates. Die-cast hoops make tuning more consistent and easier to achieve because the tension bolts always contact the hoop properly. Drums fitted with die-cast hoops also offer crisper attack, clear and resonant highs and much more powerful rim shots.

Claw Hooks(Starclassic Bubinga ELITE/Bubinga)



Starclassic Bubinga ELITE/Bubinga's claw hooks feature rubber spacers that help protect wood hoops from damage. The hooks and hoops work as one unit and won't separate or rattle, even on loose tunings.

Bass Drum Spur Bracket(Starclassic Bubinga ELITE/Bubinga)



TAMA's MSB30 die-cast bracket holds the spur bracket securely, thanks to the same powerful hinge mechanism used on the MTB30 mounting bracket.Unique memory markers found on the folding spur bracket help simplify set up.

Air Cushioned Floor Tom Legs



Starclassic's Air Pocket™ rubber feet feature a special air chamber, that eliminates the transfer of vibrations to the floor (which chokes sustain and sound) and absorbs shock for better playing.

Hold Tight™ Washers (US.PAT.NO.7307204)



The Hold Tight washer is a totally unique invention: a non-loosening washer! Its cup-shaped stainless steel washer contains a rubber ring so the tension rod pushes both the cup washer and the rubber ring. Normally, vibrations will eventually loosen the tension rod. But the softness of Hold Tight's rubber ring keeps it in contact with both the tension rod and the hoop at all times and maintains friction between them, so that tension is always preserved.

Evans® Heads



Evans® heads are featured on all Starclassic drums (except bass drum front heads). On the rack and floor toms, Genera G2 2-ply clear batter heads and Genera G1 1-ply clear bottom heads provide both durability and solid sound. Starclassic bass drums are fitted with Genera EQ4 clear batter heads
