What’s So Great About Buying Drums from Sweetwater?


Poplar gets the job done





Each shell in the 5-piece Stagestar Complete Drum Set starts out as six individual plies of dynamically versatile poplar. These aren’t your typical beginner dimensions ? most all the shells included in Stagestar fit the bill of the standardly configured drum packs utilized by professionals. And once formed, these shells are capped with lightweight triple-flanged hoops that go easy on your drumsticks, coming adorned with quality lugs and tension rods for fabulous intonation and classic TAMA aesthetic appeal. The sound of the final product? Traditionally full, punchy, and present shells that excel at many different dynamic levels ? perfect for beginners that are getting a feel for the trade!





Thick-gauge brass cymbals





We don’t always see beginner kits coming equipped with cymbals, and these offerings from the TAMA Stagestar reach new heights. The cymbals are crafted from thick-gauge brass, delivering much more presence and durability over time than average beginner cymbals while hammering home that bright and vibrant wash of brass. You'll receive a pair of 14-inch hi-hats and a 16-inch crash cymbal ? for first timers looking for a starter kit, that’s enough to do the trick!





All that hardware!





It isn’t just the hardware on the shells that’s appreciated by drum pros here at Sweetwater. We’re talking stands, pedals, a tom holder, and a throne ? the whole nine yards! This double-braced hardware is designed for stability beneath even the most eager and heavy-handed beginners, and is a welcomed touch for the territory! You’re setup features a boom cymbal stand, an Omnisphere double tom holder, a snare basket stand, a hi-hat stand, a double-chain kick pedal, and a comfy throne. It all comes chrome-finished, too, for a superb look that’ll shine under any lighting ? from living room lamps to talent show stages and beyond!
