Venus Shell Technology
9-ply poplar shells
Outfitted with 9-ply, 7.2-millimeter poplar shells, the Venus set offers a nice, warm sound with smooth playability. This set's high and middle range isn't overbearing, presenting a great middle ground presence and tone with superb rebound that's a cinch to master. On the low end, you've got the force of a punchier bass range, especially from the kick, opening the door into a world of genres to satisfy any preference.
SONIClear bearing edges
Place a drumhead on one of your current shells. Notice the rocking? The drag when you spin it? That's proof that your bearing edges are robbing you of tone and tuning capability. Mapex's SONIClear bearing edges seat heads so perfectly that they can be tensioned by hand and still produce a pure tone. This widens the tuning range for players who prefer deeper fundamentals while producing a purer pitch across the board.


Hammered brass cymbals
This complete Venus drum set comes outfitted with a 3-piece hammered brass cymbal pack from Mapex to cover every base. A pair of crisp-playing 14-inch hi-hats gets the job done, backed by the accents of a 16-inch crash cymbal and the rhythmic wash of a large 20-inch ride cymbal. From rock, metal, and pop to jazz, swing, and beyond, this standard-sized cymbal configuration, with its brilliant brass construction, makes an excellent fit for advancing players — no matter how gently or intensely you want to play!
Venus 400 hardware at the ready
A responsive hi-hat stand and two conveniently adjustable boom cymbal stands flank the Venus kit, neighbored by a snare basket stand and a smooth and sensitive chain-driven kick pedal ready to bring out the bass end with precision. The Venus set also includes a bass-drum-mounted double tom mount that offers exceptional stability and tilting adaptability to both accommodate your playing preferences and reduce the footprint of the kit. Finally, a Mapex drum throne gives you a comfortably compact seat for effortless navigation of your kit.
