Shift your Playing into Hyper-Drive

The Tama ML62HZBNS Superstar HyperDrive Six-Piece Maple Kit, in Satin Arctic Pearl, offers all the power, flexibility, and visibility you've come to expect from Tama Hyper-Drive kits. Think powerful, clear tone, unparalleled flexibility in kit set-up, and complete visibility in all your performances.

Tama's highest priority in producing the Superstar series was sound. The full, powerful character and rich resonance of the Superstar drums were achieved by utilizing carefully selected maple shells and focusing intently on shell molding and the bearing edge shape. The ML62HZBNS features 100% maple shells, with the toms and snare boasting 6ply at 5mm, and the bass drum, 8-ply at 7mm.

The Sound Bridge high-tension, low-mass lug was specifically designed for the Superstar series. Sound Bridge's unique structure looks much like a traditional high-tension lug, but the body of the lug "floats" over the shell to minimize shell contact so the drum can resonate to its fullest. However, Sound Bridge still offers all the benefits of the traditional high-tension lug: it offsets the tension of the batter side and bottom side heads, reduces the stress on the shell, and provides greater protection to the drum shell during transport.

All Superstar rack toms are fitted with a Star-Cast Mounting System similar to Starclassic drums. This unique system offers total tom isolation and unhindered shell resonance without the adverse effect on tuning or complicated head changes found in less advanced suspension designs. Hyper-Drive is the new standard depth size on tom toms. Its short depth creates enhanced attack, punchy sound, and quick response. And more it allows you to set up the rack toms in lower position. So, you can post the tom toms more freely. The ML62HZBNS also features Die-Cast hoops, Quick-set Titler hardware, string and stable claw hooks, and black nickel shell hardware.

At Riffs & Licks, we like the ML62HZBNS for its power, flexibility, visibility, as well as its reliability.
