Great choice! Yellow also sounds better!
What sizes?

I think I asked you else where ,,, but I’m curious do those yellows “pop” in person even more than they already do in photograph? Thanks buddy

Sorry, it must have slipped by me.
Yes indeed they do. They are as yellow as yellow gets. Sunny yellow. They put a smile on my face every time I lay eyes on them.

You sir, where my inspiration!

Great choice!

I just came home from a recording session. Two songs down on a Sunday morning. Oh, the sound….

My favorite of the Star finishes is the Raspberry Curly Maple, I would personally get it without the outside inlays and add the inside ones. I used to want the Antique gold, but then I played this 12/14/18/sn kit at NAMM.

Pro Drum also has a Star kit 10/13/16/13sn in a recreation of Camco’s Alice Cooper White, and it’s like the Strat that Wayne ogles at. I just look at it.

Wow, that red curly maple is stunning!

This is my all time favourite Tama drum finish .

I normally don't like curly maple, but man, these are fabulous.

Beautiful

 

[What It Is]

I just love those yellow Tamas. One of these days . . .

 

[Tcat]

i currently have a Tama Star Bubinga 20,12,14 and love it. Have not played the others so not familiar. I would consider a trade for a Tama Star Walnut 4 pc just to try something different.

Congrats on the new kit. Love the yellow.

I’ve looked at the prices on these and it seems they are all over the place, from 3299 way up to the moon
