Here we have a fantastic opportunity to own one of Matt Halpern's personal Mapex Saturn IV drum kits, this kit was used by him live with Periphery and has been sampled for the Get Good Drums libraries, a company which Matt co-founded In 2016 alongside bandmates Adam "Nolly" Getgood and Misha Mansoor.
This kit does have a baby brother bop kit which we currently have offered for sale separately.
The configuration here comes with an great array of sizes - 8 x 7, 10 x 7 & 12 x 8 toms, 16 x 16 & 18 x 16 floor toms, a 22 x 16 Bass Drum and an immaculate Matt Halpern Wraith signature snare drum. We've had the pleasure of hearing this kit played at Peter Gabriel's Real World studios and it sounded phenomenal!
The shells feature Mapex's unique SONIClear™ bearing edge, which allows the drumhead to sit flatter and make better contact with the shell. The result is a drum with far greater resonance and tonal clarity, along with a deeper, more rounded tone. The SONIClear™ edge also allows for much easier tuning, and enables the drum to consistently stay in tune.
Complimenting the bearing edge are the innovative low-contact mounts. The bass drum claws and SONIClear™ tom suspension are designed to increase resonance by reducing contact and preserving vibration in the shell. The tom suspension also avoids touching the tension rods, allowing the heads to stay in tune for longer and making them easy to change.
