Building on the Starclassic legacy, the Performer series was introduced to the Tama line-up to make professional-quality drums accessible to all. The Starclassic Performer drums include many of the high-end features you'd find on Tama's flagship ranges, but you won't have to break the bank here. Representing remarkable value for money, it's easy to see why the Performer series receives countless endorsements far and wide. For newer drummers making the next step, or experienced players looking to prove themselves on a pro kit, there's really no better place to look.

Tama's newest hybrid drum shell

An expertly-engineered blend of maple and birch. Both tonewoods combine to produce an exciting range of drum tones. These shells feature 4 or 5 plies of birch with 2 inner plies of maple. Maple is one of the most popular cuts for drums the world over, due to its warm, bright sounds and tonal versatility. Meanwhile, birch offers cutting projection and unmatched levels of attack. Those inner layers of maple are the sweetness at the core of the Performer Shell Pack, with the power of the outer birch layers helping you project your playing to the world.

Star-Cast Mounting System

Just one of the aforementioned high-end features. The Star-Cast Mounting System has always provided maximum resonance and stability for Tama's professional drums. Not only does this mounting system allow your toms to sing with their most natural tones, but its streamlined design makes it easier to position the toms closer together for greater comfort and ease of playing.
