Mapex Saturn Evolution Birch Floor Tom 16x14 Exotic Night Forest Burst

Mapex Saturn Evolution Fits Any Environment

The revolutionary Halo mount, a lateral, unique under lug-line suspension system, unlocks the freedom of full resonance and allows the drum to sing with an open, pure tone. The Adjustment Knob acts as a built-in Equalizer that can slightly dampen the resonance of the shell, producing a tighter and quicker decay. Whether you like to go dry in a jazz gig, or sound huge in a packed arena, the Saturn Evolution has the whole package for you

What's Included:

Saturn Evolution Birch 16x14 Floor Tom

Features:

First introduced as a special edition in 2012, the Birch/Walnut hybrid shell has made its return to the Saturn Evolution line with Design Lab features. The new shell formula perfectly combines the sonic characteristics of walnut with articulate punch of birch, delivering a dark, punchy, dry sound.

The SONIClear II Halo mounting system suspends each tom via four diagonal, lateral and supportive contact under lug line points on a one-piece ring suspension system releasing the pressure on the shell more evenly, enabling the shell's full natural vibration and resonance. Saturn Evolution comes standard with Mapex SONIClear Bearing Edges allowing for the direct transmission of sound, reducing unwanted frequencies and providing a strong fundamental pitch and an effortless tuning experience especially at lower tunings. The "Sustain Adjustment Knob" on the Halo mount can be adjusted to fine-tune the sustain and resonance by controlling the contact area between the mount and shell.
