The Mapex Saturn 22″ 5pc Short Stack Shell Pack Scarlet Fade is a drum set that lives up to its name, offering incredible value and versatility. In 2020, Mapex has made improvements to the Saturn Short Stack 5pc Shell Pack, creating a drum set that provides a wide range of tones, dynamics, and musical complexities for any situation.
The shells of this drum set are made from a hybrid of Maple and Walnut, combining the tonal versatility and warmth of Maple with the fast attack and dark tones of Walnut. This unique blend of woods creates a drum set that is perfect for any style, technique, or venue.
One notable feature of the Mapex Saturn drum set is the newly-incorporated SONIClear bearing edges. This technology ensures better contact between the drum head and shell, resulting in increased shell vibration and greater resonance. The bearing edges also make tuning easier and allow for a stronger and deeper fundamental pitch.
The Saturn Series drum set also features SONIClear tom suspension, which allows the toms to resonate with greater freedom and musicality. The low-mass holders of the SONIClear system liberate the toms from tight clamping, preserving the vibrations from the heads and shells.
Another innovative feature of the Saturn Series drum set is the Chamber Specific-Nodal Line Air Flow Venting technology. This customised air flow system ensures that the bass drums and toms have unique air hole placement, strategically aligned with the drum lugs to prevent interference with the overall resonance of the shells.
To further enhance the tonal resonance of the drum set, Mapex has included the TH800 SONIClear tom holders and Sonic Pedestal feet. The Sonic Pedestal feet prevent contact between the floor tom legs and the playing surface, eliminating vibration transfer and maximising resonance.
The Mapex Saturn 22″ 5pc Short Stack Shell Pack Scarlet Fade includes a configuration of a 22″ x 18″ bass drum, 10″ x 7″ and 12″ x 8″ rack toms, and 14″ x 12″ and 16″ x 14″ floor toms. The shell material is Maple/Walnut with 6 plies and the bearing edges are SONIClear. The hoops are triple-flanged 2.3mm Power Hoops and the finish is Satin Black. Please note that hardware, snare drum, cymbals, and accessories are sold separately.
Overall, the Mapex Saturn 22″ 5pc Short Stack Shell Pack Scarlet Fade is a drum set that offers incredible value and a wealth of tonal and practical features. From the hybrid shell design to the innovative bearing edges and air flow system, every aspect of this drum set has been carefully designed to provide exceptional sound and performance.
