Tama: IMPERIALSTAR 22 AMERICAN FUSION

You’re serious about drums. We’re serious. That’s why Imperialstar isn’t a new name on an old design. Even the state-of-the art drum making facility where Imperialstars are created is completely new. Every aspect of Imperialstar was exhaustively examined, re-examined and rethought before it was allowed to be part of the final Imperialstar design.

SHELLS:100% POPLAR 6PLY/7.5MM
(except metal snare drum) Poplar wood has been used in making drum shell for over 50 years. It offers a full, warm tone combined with medium attack.

PRECISION BEARING EDGES
A drum’s bearing edge is one of the most important components in drum sound.
Our advanced edge-cutting process provides extremely precise bearing edges – which allow TAMA shells to ring openly and fully, and provide a wide range of tune ability, sensitivity and response.

100% GLUED FINISHES
Some drum companies only affix their wraps to the drum shell by taping the finish at “selected contact points”. At TAMA, all of our wrapped finishes are glued to the shell 100% to eliminate warping, buzzing or lifting. This process allows the shell to resonate fully and consistently. It’s more work, but it’s worth it. A difference you can see and hear!

NEW DESIGN LUGS
Our new lugs are 10%smaller than the lugs of our previous Swingstar Series for even greater shell resonance.

DRUM HEADS
Batter side heads are made of clear 250 microns thick film for richer tone and greater durability. Ring mufflers on bass drum heads remove the need for additional internal muffling.

ACCU-TUNE BASS HOOPS
A special formulation hi-tech material offers lighter weight, and faster, more stable tuning than traditional metal hoops. In addition, since Accu-Tune hoops use tension bolts instead of clawhooks and T-rods, head changes and packing up are a breeze.

SPUR BRACKETS
New design spur bracket features the same look and style as our high-end Starclassic drums and provides maximum durability and stability.

BLACK NICKEL PLATED STEEL SNARE DRUM
Imperialstar’s steel snare drum is much more powerful and brighter than the typical wood entry-level snare – so you can easily handle the most heavily amplified rock band. But drumming isn’t only about loud. This powerful snare drum offers the sensitivity and response – and the rich, expensive looks of drums far beyond Imperialstar’s affordable price range.

TOM HOLDER
TAMA L-rod and Omnisphere tom holder systems have received acclaim from drummers for over 25years. These systems offer easy positioning, maximum flexibility, satability and greater sound than standard designs which penetrate the shell interior and can inhibit resonance.

TOM BRACKET
The eye-bolt structure is rock solid, holding the toms in place securely.

Cymbals are not included
