You have to gig a lot to realize how much better these are to get the job done

Ludwig : Kick, Snare Gretsch: Toms

Beautiful kit and the Drumeo clips are hilarious!!!

also whats the throw off?

WHAT did or do u guys prefer the stainless steel Kiplinger in the 14x5.5 or a 14x5???

WHAT SNARE STAND ARE U USING?

I can attest to Tama's care for QC. I ordered a beautiful Bubinga Star Classic 7 pcs. kit. After a while I noticed that there was a flaw in the 16" flr. tom. Tama was notified & I sent them a picture of the flaw. Very quickly, a new 16" tom was sent back to me. I'm not a famous drummer, but it didn't matter to Tama. Incredible.

That Wuhan crash should be against the rules!

Homeboy with the glasses needs to work with a metronome

When are we getting back to another round of the ROYAL DRUMBLE ?

First time seeing something like this from Tama. THANK YOU! Too bad I live in California.

I couldn’t decide in two lifetimes which finish to choose. All are incredible. That Autumn Foliage is gorgeous. Thanks for the tour I love these.

Well, there is something about "made in Japan"

Tama is really the king in my opinion. My only gripe with their current high end drums is that the rock tom system makes some tom mic clamps incompatible or very difficult at best to attach.

Shane, you definitely need a sunscreen.

*Let’s go TAMA, please remake the birch 🌳 Grandstar and maple 🍁 Artstar drums!*

Love my Tama SilverStar 5 pc Limited Edition Acrylic drum set!

I just got a giant 15 top for my 2002 SE bottom 😊

Need to include Wuhan or Stagg China lineup which can hold its ground versus expensive China, very great value for money too

Maybe I’m just retarded but the first sounds more like Bonham to me

So very awesome! Thanks for sharing, Shane.

Owned a few tama sets always loved them.wish I could afford these star beauties.remo coated ambassadors are imo the best sounding heads ever.u can make crappy drums sound pretty good with these heads

2002's for me, either ones or all three sets! I have plenty of cymbale stands all around my drums😊

I’m from Chile 🇨🇱 and it would be a dream come true to visit your store one day!

In my opinion, the 21 inch k sweet ride from Zildjian sound really not bad!

The SQ2 sounds absolutely killer!

a&f makes my the drums of my dreams. unbeatable sound and looks. its just not fair. i live in apartment, i am not a good drummer, and not in a band, but daaaaang i would love to annoy everybody with these.

Tama Star ❤

Oh how I'd love to own a TAMA Star Walnut kit!!! I have 2 Starclassic kits and 1 Artstar kit but my goal is to one day have a STAR kit!! I bought one of my Starclassic kits from you guys!!

Zildjian K 20" Custom Dark Ride

TAMA the best, thanks Drum Center

Maple/Gum for me. Love that tone

What’s the best and easiest bass drum Tom mount to install?

Man, Shane! Just to ride the bullet train to the factory from Tokyo, oh yeah! Truthfully, a great video and tribute to a worthy company. I own a Kawasaki motorcycle, so there you go!

Not sure it's quite an apples-to-apples comparison with Rude Thin crashes. The original Crash/Ride models, or Wild Crash, or Basher, might have been closer, at least in terms of weight. (Rudes were never the heaviest cymbals, they were just made for in-your-face tone.)

Nice

Thank you Tama for my Superstar Classic in Dark Indigo Burst; It's a mighty and punchy kit with a booming presence!

DW=Dineros Wasted. Way overpriced for what they are.

The Paiste RUDE Novo China is amazing.

👍👌

I've always played Pearl kits, and in 2018 I fulfilled my lifetime ambition of getting a Pearl Masterworks kit, which is my pride and joy. Obviously I knew that Tama and all of the other manufacturers made brilliant gear as well. I also bought a Tama Starphonic 13"x7" steel snare drum at the end of 2021. It's the only Tama product I own. I paid about £300 in the UK for it, and for the quality of the materials, components, and the finish, it was a bargain really. I'm massively impressed with the components and how they perform, the workmanship and finish, the design featurers, and so on. Watching this video made me like Tama even more. Magnificent manufacturer, magnificent retailer.

Kewl 😎... ✝️👍🤙✌️

Finally a Tama factory video that mentions the most important thing of all - the bearing edge. Nice work Shane.

🔥

I love that country. Just got back. Such great people. Hard to believe we actually fought a war there. Very hard

Thanks Shane....you guys are the best...look forward to seeing you soon

8:52 Best job in the world, The sticker putter.

I say storytime with Shane should be a new series. We can listen at the campfire in the summer and home fire in the winter while knitting sweaters for the cool DCP cats.😊

Hell yeah TAMA all day every day! Still can't get my head around how awesome Anup Sastry's Starclassic sounds.

THAT SNARE!!!!! UAAAAAAUUUUUUUUU.......
