TAMA Starclassic Mirage 50th Anniversary Drum Kit - UNBOXING & DEMO

[@Edelweiss1102]

Congrats on getting an absolute killer set. I got myself a regular Starclassic Performer SKA last year and absolutely love them.

[@Monsterdrumma]

They sound great! I love the sound of acrylic kits!

[@kirkbagliadrums]

Thank you! These drums project so well on stage

[@ZeroHourBand]

Can confirm this thing looks sick on stage 🥁🤩

[@nikkicvammen4649]

agreed!

[@StealthMode90]

With LED light strips the possibility’s are endless

[@nikkicvammen4649]

This kit is so beautiful!!! Great review!

[@kirkbagliadrums]

Thank you! 😊

[@iantouzel638]

beautifull kit, nice demo, Tool song. Can't go wrong with Tama

[@alexalja]

Perfect choice for live drum kit. Congrats!

[@JeserNoob]

These look amazing dude sick kit! Love the 60 fps too it’s buttery

[@kirkbagliadrums]

@@JeserNoob thank you!!

[@montearnstam6827]

Great drumming and nice mix!!!!

[@kirkbagliadrums]

@@montearnstam6827 thank you! These drums made the mix easy

[@rippindrummer666]

Cool drums, I will say, I had the starclassic walnut birch drums and those Tama powercraft heads have such heavy hoops they suck a ton of tone out of the drums. If you replace those it will make this kit sound like 20 percent better

[@miker5233]

Very nice I have one as well do you have any tips on maintenance for it to clean and to cover it with sheets which I do

[@Rick-m3c]

Nice video Kirk. Beautiful looking and sounding kit. Use it in good health. I think that bass is going to sound great with a PS 3. That EQ 4 sounded a little too papery (that's actually a word believe it or not.) That may be my listening source (a phone) but it will be interesting to see if the PS 3 makes a difference. Best.

[@kirkbagliadrums]

@@Rick-m3c I completely agree. PS3 is my go-to kick head. Also with the papery comment. I would recommend listening on something with good low-end response, because it’s definitely a beefy kick - but tbh I feel the same way listening on my phone

[@Rick-m3c]

@@kirkbagliadrums Wish Tama would make a few add on Toms for this kit.

[@Kevin-ne3tl]

Uh oh... somebody's got themselves a Danny Carey signature ride! Nice score, man.

[@kirkbagliadrums]

@@Kevin-ne3tl ahh a man of taste!

[@Kevin-ne3tl]

@@kirkbagliadrums Old TAMA guy myself, those are the only brand of drums I have ever owned. Currently have a 1990 Rockstar DX stuffed away in a closet.

[@nickpruett8022]

Beautiful kit, great video tutorial also.

[@Timotolas]

Nice video bro! If possible, and if you still have the main boxes, may I know the sizes of them (lxwxh), I am planing to purchase one but I may need to import it to Mexico and the size/wight will be a good refrende for me to calculate a possible shipping cost. Either way, thank you for doing this very detail video.

[@_DrumsArt]

Sounds like you were playing Tool for a bit there.

[@DrFopdoodle]

Can’t believe my eyes bro we have the same kit down to the dark energies and the monad

[@kirkbagliadrums]

You have impeccable taste my friend

[@DrFopdoodle]

@@kirkbagliadrums if you’re a user of the tama thrones guitar center has a purple top one to match the monad

[@DrumsTillDeath]

Love Tama Kick and Snare tuning😖

[@kirkbagliadrums]

Definitely agree I have a long way to go toward mastering snare tunings in general. I really like the kick sound though.

[@kirkbagliadrums]

I tuned the snare down a bit before taking it on stage and it sounds waayyyyy better than how I had it in this video. Might do a separate video on the snare with a variety of heads and tunings. Would be good practice for me.

[@sticktrik]

I have this kit..if you want next level sound..get rid of the Evans G2 heads and replace them with the Remo clear Ambassadors and tune them higher..Wide open!! No muffling on the toms!!!! Absolutely killer sound!!!!!!!

[@JeserNoob]

Yeah the stock heads aren’t nothing to write home about. But then again we all knew that

[@JeserNoob]

Did you record this in 4K and then render it to 1080? It looks so crisp!!

[@kirkbagliadrums]

@@JeserNoob For the most part, yes. Sometimes I’ll do multi-angle drum covers and have to include a camera that can only shoot 1080, so that’s why I’m used to rendering in 1080. This video was all shot in 4k on a Canon R7. It’s an amazing camera!

[@JeserNoob]

@@kirkbagliadrums nice man that came out stellar. Keep it up!

[@chrisstewart1431]

😮

[@mjtan6787]

Yeah i dont know why tama didnt include the memory locks on the floor toms, where as the regular starclassic walnut birch kits have memory locks on the floor toms.

[@Edelweiss1102]

I think this special edition was based on the Starclassic Performer line, which is their entry level Starclassic and removes some features like the memory locks in exchange for being about $1000 cheaper.

[@mjtan6787]

@Edelweiss1102 yeah it looks like it is based on the performer line. I noticed the bass drum spurs too lol

[@jcdrums2798]

I leave in France, is impossible here , to find one

[@drummerboyharm3078]

Find in pays-bas

[@jcdrums2798]

If i send to you the chrome version Drum key, you can send to me the red version ?

[@jcdrums2798]

Hey kirk, please send me your second Drum key

[@kirkbagliadrums]

@@jcdrums2798 Sorry, gonna need that second one for when I inevitably lose the first

[@DrumsTillDeath]

Love the Drums Hate the tuning To each his own I guess.

[@jcdrums2798]

@@kirkbagliadrums yes! i am ok for that...congrats bro, for the mirage kit

[@JeserNoob]

@@DrumsTillDeathI have a b/b kit that I tuned low too with the stock heads. It never quite sounded the way I liked it I know for sure most of that was because of the heads and I didn’t know how to tune. But after buying a drum dial and playing with it for a while even with stock heads I found useable sounds. Coated Vintage ambassadors all the way for sure
