What type of shell is the Tama Rockstar Fusion Kit?

by Brandon

I am wondering what type of shell it is. I am going to assume that the Tama Rockstar's are not the greatest or maybe an entry level kit. Also, what kind of heads I should put on all the drums to have a punchy, low, and focused sound?

ANSWER

Hi, Brandon--

The Rockstar series is constructed with a 9mm, eight-ply structure consisting of seven plies of Philippine mahogany and an inner ply of basswood.

As far as choosing heads, please see the discussion of different types of heads at:
