Late-70s / early-80s Tama Superstar snare drum with KG parallel strainer. These were part of Tama’s top of, the line Japanese-made drums from the era and are known for their excellent sensitivity and classic birch tone.
14x5 10 lug birch shell
“Super Maple” natural finish
Made in Japan
The shell and hardware are in good overall player condition. Some non-original parts. Still functions and sounds / plays great
A few notes for transparency:
• Hoops are non-original triple-flanged hoops (originals would have been die-cast).
• The internal muffler works, but the mounting bracket was previously repaired with a metal piece and is not original.
• Normal cosmetic wear consistent with age.
Despite the non-original parts, this is still a fantastic sounding vintage Tama snare with a very responsive parallel action system. Great player drum and a cool piece of late 70s Tama history.
