{"product_id":"mapex-saturn-studio-22-satin-white-350808","title":"SATURN 5 DRUMS SATIN WHITE","description":"\u003ch3\u003eHistorical Context and Positioning Within the Range\u003c\/h3\u003eFor several years, the Saturn series has established itself as a Mapex benchmark for drummers seeking a premium, robust, and musical acoustic drum kit. Positioned above the Mars and Armory lines, it follows a design philosophy inspired by developments from the Design Lab, with particular attention to projection, resonance, and tuning stability. The \"Evolution\" designation marks a step forward in this continuity: the same sonic DNA but with a modernized approach to mounts and bearing edges to fully exploit the potential of hybrid shells.\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho This Drum Set Is For\u003c\/h3\u003eThe Mapex Saturn Evolution 5-piece is primarily aimed at \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate to professional drummers\u003c\/strong\u003e who want an evolving kit capable of handling demanding contexts. Its 22-inch format delivers the expected impact for pop and rock while retaining enough nuance for funk, fusion, gospel, or contemporary music where dynamics are as important as power. In the studio, the clarity of the toms and the depth of the bass drum facilitate recording, with strong fundamentals and harmonics that are easier to control when needed.\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures and Innovations\u003c\/h3\u003eThe heart of the kit is based on a hybrid \u003cstrong\u003emaple and walnut\u003c\/strong\u003e construction designed to offer clear attack, rich low-mids, and solid low-end foundation. The \u003cstrong\u003eSONIClear\u003c\/strong\u003e bearing edges directly contribute to user comfort: they promote more consistent contact with the drumhead, which helps find the right tuning faster and stabilizes tuning over time, even when alternating between light playing and heavy strikes.\u003cbr \/\u003eRegarding shell hardware, the toms are equipped with \u003cstrong\u003eHalo\u003c\/strong\u003e mounts, a lateral suspension positioned below the tension rods line that allows the shell to vibrate more freely. The result: more useful sustain, a more \"alive\" feel under the sticks, and a tom that retains its body even at lower drumhead tensions. The two \u003cstrong\u003eTH800\u003c\/strong\u003e tom mounts complete the set with stable support and precise positioning, essential for reliable ergonomics on stage.\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound\u003c\/h3\u003eTonally, \u003cstrong\u003emaple\u003c\/strong\u003e provides natural warmth, a very musical overall balance, and singing sustain, while \u003cstrong\u003ewalnut\u003c\/strong\u003e enhances density, depth, and presence in the low spectrum. This combination delivers a signature that is both full and defined: the kit \"fills\" the space while maintaining excellent attack clarity, particularly appreciated when guitars or keyboards occupy a lot of sonic space.\u003cbr \/\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e22 x 18-inch\u003c\/strong\u003e bass drum delivers a full, projected low end with punch that remains controllable depending on tuning choices. The \u003cstrong\u003e10 x 8\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e12 x 9-inch\u003c\/strong\u003e toms offer a quick, articulated response, ideal for precise patterns and cleaner ghost notes, while the floor toms \u003cstrong\u003e14 x 12\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e16 x 14 inches\u003c\/strong\u003e add a generous low-end foundation, perfect for tom runs and heavy grooves. The factory-installed \u003cstrong\u003eRemo\u003c\/strong\u003e heads provide a reliable base to start immediately, with a consistent sound and usable dynamics without needing to replace everything after the first rehearsal.\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e5-piece shell pack\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e22 x 18 inches (bass drum), 10 x 8 and 12 x 9 inches (toms), 14 x 12 and 16 x 14 inches (floor toms)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHybrid construction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003emaple and walnut\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalo mounts on all toms\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eisolated lateral suspension for total resonance\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShell pack only\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003edelivered without hardware, snare drum, or cymbals\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mapex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54357825224979,"sku":"350808","price":1899.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/f5d9de282dc3880d4d006078cb1f5bad54d81b53_MAPEX_SR628XURM.jpg?v=1787293228","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/mapex-saturn-5-drums-satin-white-350808","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
