Mapex Tom Mars Maple 8 X 7 Cortado Satin

The essentials to know about maple drum shells A 100% maple construction, appreciated for its balance of warmth, projection and definition. 6-ply, 7.2 mm shells, designed to combine dynamic response, strength and controlled resonance. SONIClear bearing edges that make head tensioning easier and expand tuning possibilities. A deeper, more pronounced fundamental, ideal for achieving a full and musical drum sound. Who are these maple shells for This configuration is intended for drummers looking for a versatile sonic foundation, capable of responding precisely in a wide range of playing contexts. Maple is equally suited to intermediate musicians looking to develop their sound and experienced drummers who expect a reliable, expressive and easy-to-tune response. Thanks to their natural balance, these shells are at home in rock, pop, funk, gospel, variété, modern jazz and live performances. Their rounded character retains body at low volume while offering sufficient projection when the playing becomes more forceful. Construction features and benefits The shells are made from 6 plies of maple for a total thickness of 7.2 mm. This compromise provides a structure that is sufficiently rigid to support attack and tuning stability, while allowing the shell to vibrate freely in order to preserve its harmonic richness. The SONIClear bearing edges directly contribute to tuning comfort. Their profile promotes consistent contact between the head and the shell edge, helping achieve more even tuning across all the tension rods. The drummer therefore benefits from an extended tuning range, more intuitive tuning and a more consistent response from one shell to the next. The sound Maple is a particularly sought-after wood in the world of acoustic drums for its versatility. It
