The Mapex Saturn 22 5pc Shell Pack is a stunning professional-quality shell pack that offers unrivalled drum sounds. It is known for its thrilling range of dynamics and tones. The Saturn Series, with its hybrid shell construction of maple and walnut, delivers devastating attack and rumbling low-end.
The Mapex Saturn Series has incorporated features from Mapex’s outstanding Black Panther Design Lab, such as the newly incorporated SONIClear bearing edges and the brand new air ventilation system. These additions enhance the already famous ring system of the Saturn Series, making it better than ever. Please note that hardware, snare drum, and cymbals are sold separately.
The fusion of maple and walnut in the drum shells of the Mapex Saturn Series creates a truly dynamic blend. Maple offers tonal versatility and warmness, while walnut brings fast attack and dark tones. Together, they create electrifying drums that are perfect for use in any setting.
Mapex’s SONIClear bearing edge technology ensures better contact between the drum head and shell, resulting in improved shell vibration, greater resonance, and easier tuning. This technology allows the Saturn Series shells to deliver a stronger and deeper fundamental pitch, allowing you to fully appreciate the nuances of the wood blend.
The SONIClear tom suspension system by Mapex preserves the vibrations from the heads and shells of the toms, allowing them to resonate with greater freedom. This system ensures that when you strike the Saturn Series toms, you experience the wide sonic range they have to offer.
Mapex’s Chamber Specific-Nodal Line Air Flow Venting technology ensures that the bass drums and toms of the Saturn Series have unique air hole placement. This strategic placement, in alignment with the drum lugs, prevents interference with the overall resonance of the shells.
The Sonic Pedestal feet by Mapex, coupled with the TH800 SONIClear tom holders, enhance the tonal resonance of the Saturn Series even more. These rubber feet prevent contact between the floor tom legs and the playing surface, allowing for maximum resonance. The elevated drums also eliminate vibration transfer.
The configuration of the Mapex Saturn 22 5pc Shell Pack includes a 22″ x 18″ bass drum, 10″ x 7″ rack tom 1, 12″ x 8″ rack tom 2, 14″ x 12″ floor tom 1, and 16″ x 14″ floor tom 2. It also comes with two TH800 tom holders.
