Video Features 100% maple shells The Maple series shells are made from 6 layers of maple with a total thickness of 5 mm. The highest priority in the design of Polmuz drums was sound. Balanced mid and high tones ensure great versatility across many musical styles. The full, powerful character and rich resonance of the shells were achieved through the use of carefully selected maple plies, as well as a focus on shell formation and edge shape. Edges The 45° bearing edge ensures optimal contact with the head. Each edge in Polmuz drums has been ground and additionally waxed, ensuring perfect contact between the head and shell. The result is clear, full-frequency sound. Sharp bearing edges on tom shells provide quick attack and short sustain, while the rounded edge on bass drums generates unique and warm vintage sound. Finish The matte finish of Polmuz drums gives each set a unique appearance and distinctive sound. The lacquer used for finishing Maple Polmuz drums is of the highest quality. Tube Lug Tube lugs are characteristic of all Polmuz drums. The unique Tube Lug design makes them look like traditional mounts, but the lug "floats" above the shell to minimize contact with the drum. This allows the entire set to resonate across the full range of sounds. To minimize the risk of drums going out of tune, each lug has a long screw that sits deep in the lug. Additionally, each lug has dual safety features in the form of both metal and nylon washers, which guarantee tuning stability. Chrome hardware In Polmuz drums, all hardware is finished with a chrome plating. The beautiful appearance gives a sense of highest quality materials used and breaks with the brand's former bad reputation. The cast logo on Polmuz shells is a true declaration of quality and style. Made from solid brass and chrome-plated, the Polmuz inscription is a guarantee and business card of the highest level of craftsmanship of each drum. Mounting system The non-invasive mounting system ensures maximum resonance and stability regardless of conditions. The streamlined design makes it easy to position toms closer together, providing greater freedom and comfort. Additionally, parts made of aluminum ensure lighter weight. Bass drum spurs The spurs on Polmuz sets are equipped with rubber pads that help protect their wooden hoops from damage. In this arrangement, the spurs and hoops form one cohesive unit so they don't separate or click, even with loose tuning. Heads Transparent, single-ply high-quality batter heads are used in the drums. The resonant heads also feature a wide dampening collar. The resonant heads feature a characteristic vintage-style head with a distinct Polmuz logo.
