Manufacturer's description

Until you actually sit behind a Saturn kit and hear for yourself what two thin walnut plies do for ultra-thin maple shells, you really don’t know what you’re missing. The bass drum has that extra-fat bottom end, the floor toms that unmistakable punch, the mounted toms ring with warm resonance like you’ve never heard.

The perfect drum set for the road warrior, the Saturn is everything you need to make an impact on stage. Lightweight hardware, finishes especially designed to make the most of stage lighting, and above all, sonic qualities that set you apart from everyone else.

Sit down behind a Saturn and discover what so many touring professionals have learned. Do it for the crowd. Do it for the band. Do it for yourself. The Mapex Saturn may just be the last drum set you’ll ever buy.
