The Mapex Tornado drum series is aimed at beginners and advanced drummers who are looking for an all-round carefree package. In addition to the drum shells in standard sizes, all stands, pedal, a throne and even a set of cymbals by Zildjian from the U.S.A. are included, all perfectly matched and ready to play! Mapex has proven several times in the past that good stuff does not have to be expensive. That this is also true for the beginner class is once again impressively demonstrated by the Tornado drum sets.
The Tornado drums are made in the same factories and with the help of the same machines as the big ones, under strict quality requirements as the higher-quality drum sets from Mapex. The argument that cheap drums should sound bad, the Tornado drum set throws out an unusually crisp, rich sound that almost casually invalidates any doubts. Nine layers of lime wood and original REMO heads give the shells an attack-rich sound and the Tornado Set can be optimally positioned using the ball-and-socket tom holder.
A hardware package consisting of hi-hat stand, foot pedal, cymbal stand and snare stand is also included for an immediate start. True to the Tornado principle, the hardware also impresses with its unusually high quality. Double braced tripod legs provide the necessary stability and helpful features make it easier to set and find one's own preferences. A pair of practice Hi-Hats and a 16" crash cymbal complete the package tonally.
Also optically the Tornado Drums will convince the drummer. This is ensured by nice wrap finishes which, together with the chrome-plated shell hardware, create a rounded appearance. We also provide a free assembly instruction DVD with lots of tips and tricks.
