General
Most drummers are first to arrive at a gig and the last to leave, because transporting, assembling, and disassembling a drum kit takes a lot of time. Tama's Cocktail Jam drum kit, however, is a great option as an on-the-go type of kit because it all fits in just two bags! This special Mirage edition is especially unique because of its transparent acrylic shells and Crystal Ice finish that gives them a light, silvery glow. This kit is ideal for practice sessions, but is also suitable for gigs as it produces plenty of volume!
Compact configuration
To keep this kit as compact as possible, Tama integrated a horizontal 16 x 6-inch bass drum with matching pedal. It also features a 10 x 5-inch tom and a 14 x 5.5-inch floor tom, both with resonance heads, just like the bass drum. What you get id a deep sound despite the small size of these drums, and the amount of volume you'd expect from a standard-size set. Finally, there's the snare drum, which is a modest yet perfectly suitable 12 x 5 inches.
Including hardware and bags
All these elements are designed to fit together thanks to a special assembly system. The floor tom is suspended on three straight tubes that are mounted on the bass drum, and there are two tom arms to hold the snare and tom. This set also includes a hi-hat and a cymbal arm, both of which are equipped with a clamp. The whole kit fits snugly in two bags, which are also included.
