Tama Starclassic Maple 6.5×14 Snare Drum – Molten Electric Blue Burst

Tama Starclassic Maple 6.5×14 Snare Drum – Molten Electric Blue Burst

The Starclassic Maple snare drums combine incredible power with maple’s intense and warm tone. Zinc die-cast hoops provide superior high-end “crack” and response.

Bearing Edge

The shape of the edge is one of the most important factors which affect drum sound. Because the drumheads provide the important source of vibration, the shape of the contact point of the head and shell determines and defines the sound. This is why TAMA has worked so extensively on achieving the most functional shape for the drum head and edge. This design, which creates a better fit between the drumhead and bearing edge, maximizes the resonance of the drum. This bearing edge shape is part of our TAMA tradition and is crucial in providing TAMA’s unique drum sound.

“Linear-Drive” Strainer

The Tama exclusive “Linear-Drive” strainer is designed for greater control of the lever adjustment arm and more precise control of the strainer’s deployment motion. The strainer movement works in a true linear motion. Even if the strainer is engaged rapidly, you will not hear the typical “slap” of the snare wires hitting the bottom drumhead. To prevent the snare wires from loosening, this strainer also has a ratchet system on its tension adjustment mechanism. Single click adjustments offer a vertical pull of 0.083mm in wire motion, which allows for ultra-sensitive micro-adjustments.

Super Sensitive Hi-Carbon Snare Wire

In order to provide a crisper and more sensitive sound, we redesigned our snappy snare using new materials and customizing the shape of the plate and the wire coil’s winding pattern. As a result of these modifications, the new Super Sensitive Hi-Carbon Snappy Snare fits closer to the snare side head, providing greater sensitivity and a brighter, crisper sound.

Die-Cast Hoops

Made of die-cast zinc, TAMA’s die-cast hoops deliver an incredibly sharp, solid rim shot that cannot be found in any other hoop.
