Review TAMA Vintage Rare Drum Aquamarine Blue Lacquer Granstar Tom Custom

The Drum Aquamarine Tama 90 GranStar Tom 12 is a high-quality drum head that delivers a rich, full-bodied sound. This tom head is made with Aquamarine Coating, a proprietary coating developed by Tama that provides superior durability and longevity. The coating also enhances the head's sensitivity, allowing for a wider range of dynamics and tonal nuances.

The GranStar material used in this head is a special type of film that provides a balanced tone and excellent response. It's thicker than standard heads, which gives it more projection and a fuller sound. The 90mm diameter of the head makes it ideal for tom-tom drums, providing a solid and focused sound that cuts through the mix.

The Drum Aquamarine Tama 90 GranStar Tom 12 has a 12-inch diameter, which is a common size for tom-tom drums and provides a good balance of depth and projection. The head is designed to work well with a variety of drumming styles, from rock to jazz to pop, and can be tuned to produce a wide range of sounds.

Overall, the Drum Aquamarine Tama 90 GranStar Tom 12 is a versatile and high-performing drum head that will enhance the sound of any drum kit. Its durability, sensitivity, and tonal range make it a great choice for drummers of all levels, from beginners to professionals.

1. High-quality materials: Tama is a well-known brand in the drum industry, and their Granstar series is known for using high-quality materials. The Aquamarine finish gives the drum a unique and attractive appearance.

2. Durability: The 9-ply poplar shell is designed to provide a strong and durable structure, making it suitable for heavy use.

3. Excellent sound: The Tom 12 has a deep and resonant sound, making it ideal for a wide range of music genres.

4. Adjustable tension: The Tama Starcast MDS-9000 drum hardware allows for easy adjustment of the tension, allowing you to customize the sound to your liking.

1. Price: Tama drums are generally more expensive than other brands, and the Aquamarine finish may add to the cost.

2. Weight: The 9-ply poplar shell makes the drum heavier than some other models, which can be a disadvantage if you need to transport it frequently.

3. Customization options: While Tama offers a wide range of customization options, the Aquamarine finish may limit your choices when it comes to drum heads, hardware, and other accessories.

The Drum Aquamarine Tama 90 Granstar Tom 12 is a high-quality drum that offers a deep and resonant sound, made with durable materials. However, the price and weight may be a disadvantage for some drummers. If you are looking for a durable and high-quality drum with a unique appearance, the Tama Aquamarine Tom 12 may be a great choice for you. If you are looking for a more affordable or lighter option, you may want to consider other brands or models.

If you are a serious drummer looking for a high-quality drum with a unique appearance, the Drum Aquamarine Tama 90 Granstar Tom 12 is a great choice. However, if you are on a budget or need a lighter drum, you may want to consider other options. I would recommend doing some research and trying out different drums to find the one that best fits your needs and preferences.

Details:

Winning bidder pays insured shipping cost of 19. This is a Tama granstar custom 12 tom from the early 90's.

Have fun buying. The tom looks very good, with just a couple of small marks and touch up spots the mount is in great working order. Tama's granstar was one of best rock kits of the era, but the but the attack and projection of these birch shells also makes it great for funk or fusion.

The hoops look good very rare color, not the same as Nile blue, but close to later day marine blue fade x 11 diameter x depth.

All birch shells.

Lugs show slight wear, a few marks, very little if any pitting, overall good condition. Item in offer sold as is.

The tom comes with a Tama superstar mount instead of the granstar mount. This drum ships to USA only. It is in aquamarine lacquer finish, not a wrap.
