Tama introduced the Superstar drum line at the 2005 Winter NAMM Show. The all-new drums, which feature birch shells with a basswood inner ply fitted, are available in three different series:

  • Superstar SK, which features standard covered finishes,
  • Superstar EFX SX, which features vintage covered finishes,
  • Superstar Custom SL, which also features a lacquer-finished outer–ply of basswood.

All Superstars feature zinc die-cast hoops and the Star-Cast mounting system. Also notable is use of high-tension lugs, which have been updated with a low-mass, low contact design Tama calls "Sound Bridge."

The drums are the first products from Tama's new factory in mainland China.

In standard 5pc configuration, Superstar Custom SL drums list for $1599.99, Superstar EFX SX list for $1499.99. Superstar SK drums list for 1299.99
