Tama Starclassic

The Tama Starclassic. The Starclassic has been around for a while. It is one of the best drum sets out there. But you get what you pay for. I know a guy who spent over 10k purchasing his star classic.
This is a list of all of the different materials you can get the star classic in:

  • Starclassic Performer B/B – Drums made from a mix of birch and African bubinga shells and come in a wrap or lacquer finish.
  • Starclassic Maple – Drums made from 100% maple shells and come in a lacquer finish.
  • Starclassic Bubinga/Starclassic Bubinga Elite – Drums made from 9 plies of African bubinga, with the Elite series made of either quilted bubinga or 8-ply bubinga shells with an outer ply of either maple or cordia. Starclassic Bubinga drums come in a lacquer finish, while Starclassic Bubinga Elite drums come in an exotic lacquer finish.
  • Starclassic Bubinga Omni-Tune – Drums made from 100% bubinga shells. As the name implies, these drums feature Omni-Tune lugs, which were invented in the 1930s by drum designer William David Gladstone. These lugs allow the player to tune both drumheads at the same time using a special drum key, and minimizes the time spent on drumhead changes.
  • Starclassic Warlord Exotix Spartan – Drums made from stainless steel shells with "Warlord Collection" lugs & emblems with Black Diamond Swarovski crystals. Limited worldwide production to 50 kits.

I hope to someday own one of my own, but for now i will continue to bang around on my electric kit.
