Here we have a fantastic opportunity to own one of Matt Halpern's personal Mapex Saturn IV drum kits.
This kit was part of a larger kit (also available for sale) and generally was used for practice and warm up back stage whist the bigger brother waited out front. The kit benefits from some unique sizes, it looks and sounds stunning!
The configuration offers a 18 x 14 kick drum, 12x7 tom and ac14 x 14 floor tom. o
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.
