Starclassic Performer Dark Cherry Fade Available from Tama

(Click for a close-up)
July 23, 2001

With completely pro features at a semi-pro price tag and import statistics to back it up, Tama claims its birch-shelled Starclassic Performer is the flat out unchallenged, intermediate-price champion. "There hasn’t been an intermediate kit this popular since the old Tama Imperialstar," remarked Bill Reim, Vice President of Marketing and Advertising at Hoshino USA. "The biggest reason is fully professional sound and features. But the second reason for Starclassic Performer’s success is the huge assortment of finishes, more than any other intermediate drum line and more than even a lot of the pro price range kits. Plus these are superior finishes—and the new Dark Cherry Fade is one of the best looking finishes we’ve ever offered in any drum line."

Starclassic Performer drums feature 100% birch 6mm 8ply toms and snares and 7mm/9ply bass drums.

The basic 5 pc kit, SP522D, lists for $2599.99.
SPB22D 16 x 22 bass
SPT12D 10 x 12 tom
SPT13D 11 x 13 tom
SPF16D 16 x 16 floor tom
SWS55 5 /12 x 14 matching finish wood snare drum
HS80 New Titan Snare Stand
HH85 New Titan Hi-Hat
HC62 Stagemaster straight cymbal stand
HC63B Stagemaster straight/boom convertible cymbal stand
HP200 Iron Cobra Jr. bass drum pedal
