Mapex Meridian Birch MR5466
Big, brash & because we can.
When you think of drums do you just always come back tom monstrous bass drums and big toms? We often do so we should most certainly make sure we have them in our offering.
An imposing 24x18 bass drum heads up the attack, 13x9 rack tom keeps watch as giant, cannon like 16x16 and 18x16 floor toms follow behind. As these drums are working in expanded frequency and volume territory, we paired it with a 14x6 snare, deeper than on other Meridian Birch models to fatten up the back beat potential.
The shells themselves are powerful in so many ways. When recording the range for our product demo's, we grew increasingly impressed with it's tone as the session went on. The Birch shells give such a clear, pronounced tone and show ultimate versatility, it seemed their potential had no end!
Finishes on this range also keep getting better and better, this year has seen some of the most stunning, lustrous finishes yet, couple that with great configurations and your onto a winner.
