Mapex Mars MA528S-BAW 528 Crossover 5-piece shell set Bonewood

General

The Mapex Mars MA528S-BAW 528 Crossover shell set is a 1-up, 2-down configuration with a Bonewood finish. The Mars series has a few of the high-class components from the Saturn IV line of drum sets and delivers professional performance. This shell set consists of a 22-inch bass drum, 12-inch tom, 14 and 16-inch floor toms and a matching 14 x 6.5-inch snare. This Mapex Mars kit is the ideal kit for the rock drummer that wants a powerful sound. As this kit has only a single tom, you can place your ride cymbal much closer.

Mapex Mars 528S Crossover shell set Bonewood: birch shells

The shells of this five-piece rock shell set are made of six plies of birch, for a perfectly focused sound, great resonance and a clear tone. The single, 12-inch tom has a clear, punchy sound, while the bass drum and floor toms deliver a focused low end, with a great punch and plenty of body. The 22 x 18-inch bass drum is fitted with isolating claw hooks with a rubber lining. This lining protects the bass drum hoops from being damaged, and ensures that the hardware does not start rattling as you play. The 12-inch tom can be attached to a cymbal stand using the included tom holder and clamp.

Matching snare drum

A notable part of this shell set is the matching 14 x 6.5-inch snare drum with Bonewood finish. This snare produces a solid, distinct sound and has a very versatile character. The bearing edges of the shells in the Mars series are called SONIClear bearing edges. These allow the drumhead to make better contact with the shell, resulting in a more consistent tuning, an enhanced tuning range and a deeper sound. The Mars 528S Crossover set Bonewood is ideal for the regularly touring drummer. It even comes with black hardware that is electro-plated for enhanced durability.
