This Tom Gets the VIP Treatment

Whether you’re extending the range of your Starclassic shell pack or are piecing together your dream kit and need that dynamite tom candidate, this authoritative Starclassic walnut/birch mounted tom from Sweetwater is toned for the job. Precisely structured with a shell of four outer plies of birch and two inner plies of black walnut, this 6-ply tom exudes professional-grade tone and exceptional structural integrity. The birch brings a brighter cut with subtle overtone reduction while the walnut warms, mellows, and enriches the bass and midrange frequencies, creating a shell that attacks with conviction while punching across the sonic spectrum with undeniable gut. Ornamented with ultra-projective die-cast hoops, a revered Star-Cast mount, and TAMA’s iconic Starclassic lugs anchoring down a durable set of TAMA-by-Evans drumheads, this shell is ready to get rhythmizing with presence and rock-steady tuning dependability right out of the gate.

TAMA Starclassic Walnut/Birch Tom Features:

  • 6-ply shell structured with 4 outer plies of birch and 2 inner plies of black walnut
  • Resulting tone blends bright, convictive attack and cut with warmer, gut-punching bass and midrange frequencies
  • Die-cast hoops ensure maximum projection and phenomenal tuning stability
  • Star-Cast mount blends the best of resonance and stability
  • TAMA Starclassic lugs provide proper tuning stability for truly expressive playing and charming visual appeal
