    Got my Siverstars in like two days, fastest ship ever

    i was a little concerned cause the price was too good. but they are new and without any discernible defects!

    anyhow the trans blue burst is gorgeous, really rich, better than in the pics online.

    played a show with em last saturday and could not be more pleased, they sound huge and man are they pretty, i especially like the oil rub on the interior of the shells, nice touch!

    best 137.00 im likely to ever spend.
    don't put off till tomorrow what you can put off today

    Thanks man, I appreciate it. The Silverstars have exceeded everything I've wanted and then some. They've got power and the kind of tone that you'd expect from a kit 3x the cost. Helps that they use the same shell molding process that they do for the Starclassics. Really been a great set, I've recorded with it and played through a sound system and have had great results. Congrats on the new Silverstar man too.

    Oh and The Marine Blue Fade Starclassic that I have is actually the all bubinga not the Birch/Bubinga. I've had it for 7 years now and that thing is a beast, though I would like to add a Birch/Bubinga SC to my list one day.

    Seems like a bunch of great people around here, I look forward to hanging out and talking drums.

    Thanks Bish, I've been scrolling through the forum lately and looks like you've got yourself a very impressive collection of drums man. I've been playing tama for quite a while but man I'm really loving that newer Mapex Saturn you got. That thing looks great, how's it sound and play?

    The Saturns sound and play very similar to my TAMA Star Classics. Same sizes and head selection. The TAMAs are just a bit cleaner/purer sounding.

    yea, i know what your saying about tone and the value w the SS's, ive heard that before about the shell process, not surprising.

    with regard to the blue kit, all bubinga... nice, sure it has quite the sound, have yet to test one out.

    love the b/b's, if iam to ever pick up a pro line, i think it'll be that one.



    and yea, it is a great bunch around here! later on

    Honestly man, if you get a chance to play on a all Bubinga kit do it. I've had mine for 7 years and it's the best sounding set I've ever heard/played. It's in a class of it's own. If you are getting to the point where your looking for a new kit the B/B kits are absolutely great kits, but you should at least check out the all Bubingas before making your decision. Warmest, richest, deepest sounding drums ever. They have this rich pure tone that is undeniable and very musical sounding. It's crazy man. After playing something for so long you get used to it and content, but I still love to play these any chance I get.

    im sure, now that i think of it i do think i had occasion to play the bubingas in a killer practice space, and forgot all about it. i can not be entirely sure but i do not remember seeing differing plies and the interior was most certainly bubinga. and i must say the depth of response was "different/richer" than any kit i have played before or since.

    well, this certainly has me thinking...

    Dude! These two would be all you really need to cover most bases. Great stuff. Love the blue. Love the die-cast hoops on both. Love the strainer system on the steel. Thanks for sharing.
    Proudly playing:
    Doc Sweeney Drums
    A bunch of snares
    A bunch of cymbals

    Off-Set double pedals

    I think I love to play the drums simply because you get to hit 'em!!!

    Yeah, these two are extremely versatile and can handle everything that I'd need them to, if I needed it. I love having different snares to choose from, but these could definitely be my only two, if that were necessary... thanks

    That red is gorgeous, just make sure the after market heads are not touching the tom mount grommets.. supposedly they fixed it on the newer models but most owners don't even know or seemingly care when they do see it.
