Tama To Offer Only 100 Starclassic Exotix III Limited Edition
Kits
3/03
Tama
will present its third Starclassic Exotix drum set at the Winter
2003 Anaheim NAMM show. Named "Midnight Storm," for
its gloss black finish, the limited edition 7 pc kits feature
shells with an outer ply of rare African Quilted Sapele wood
and eight inner plies of select African Bubinga rosewood. Each
drum is fitted with brushed black nickel-plated hardware and
is inlaid with genuine abalone.
Commented
Tama's Products Specialist Hunter Herman, one of the first players
to preview the kit in the U.S.: "This kits intrinsic
character is very dark and mysterious. However, it also has
incredibly high overtones and enormously deep sounds hidden
within the shells. The more you play and explore the kit, the
more these wonderful musical expressions are revealed and come
alive!"
Drummer
John Tempesta described the Exotix III's as "the best drums
ever! Bubinga rules! Warm, punchy and a great response. You
have outdone yourselves!"
Starclassic
Exotix III sets are exclusively 7 pc kits and are limited to
just 100 sets worldwide. Each kit is numbered (in the bass drum)
and includes a certificate of authenticity.
