Shell made for tone
Tama's highest priority feature when developing the Superstar series was sound. Superstar shells use birch for the main inner ply for bulletproof projection and aggressive open sound. To enhance Superstar's amazing looks, basswood, with its excellent consistency and regular grain patterns, is utilized for the inner ply on all Superstar shells plus the outer ply on Superstar Custom SL. Precisely cut bearing edges bring out the incredible response and intense resonance of these superbly crafted shells. Superstar Custom drums have lacquer finishes (high gloss or matte) for pro-level looks at a budget-friendly price.
Star-Cast Mounting System
All Superstar rack toms are fitted with a Star-Cast Mounting Rig similar to Starclassic drums. This one-of-a-kind rig offers total tom isolation and unhindered shell resonance without the adverse effect on tuning or complicated head changes found in less cutting-edge suspension designs.
Premium sound for the money
No other drum embodies pro features at an value-packed price like Superstar.
In a first for this price range, Superstar is equipped with the same zinc die-cast hoops featured on Starclassic drums. Die-cast hoops not only make tuning easier and more consistent, they also provide crisp attack, clear and resonant highs, and much more rocking rim shots.
Hardware and heads
The Sound Bridge high-tension, low-mass lug was specifically designed for Superstar. Sound Bridge's one-of-a-kind structure looks much like a old school high-tension lug, but the body of the lug "floats" over the shell to minimize shell contact so the drum can resonate to its fullest. However, Sound Bridge still offers all the benefits of the old school high-tension lug: it offsets the tension of the batter side and bottom side heads, reduces the stress on the shell, and has greater protection to the drum shell during transport.
All Superstar's "Power Craft" drum heads ensure a incredible sound practically right out of the box! Batter side heads are made of Dupont Mylar film for richer tone and greater durability. Ring mufflers on bass drum heads remove the need for extra internal muffling.
