Drum Kit Tama Starclassic Birch Bubinga, Japan, Black With Gold Glitter USED

The Bubinga / birch hybrid shell is designed to combine the best sonic attributes of each wood. Birch is a softer wood than maple and tends to have a pronounced attack, with enhanced highs and lows and reduced midrange tones. Birch was more popular than maple just 20 years ago, and, since the ’70s, had been the preferred material for studio recording kits. Compared to maple, it delivered that “studio sound” without requiring much muffling, gating, and EQ-ing.
