Long recognized as the groundbreaking center of the Mapex Lineup, Saturn pioneered the exploration of hybrid shell sonic properties. By adding interior plies of walnut to more traditional shell formulas, the foundation of a cult following was established. Now, that iconic sound of maple/walnut shelled drums collides with revolutionary Black Panther Design Lab features, forging the best Saturn yet.
