Video Features 100% maple shells The Maple series shells are made of 6 layers of maple with a total thickness of 4.8 mm. The highest priority in designing 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 was achieved through the use of carefully selected maple layers, as well as focus on shell forming and edge shape. Edges The 45° edge bevel ensures they make contact with the head at the optimal point. Each edge on Polmuz drums has been sanded and additionally waxed, ensuring perfect head-to-shell contact. The consequence of this solution is pure tone across the full frequency range. Sharp edge finishing on tom bearing edges delivers quick attack and short sustain, while the rounded edge on bass drums generates unique and warm vintage tone. Finish The matte finish of Polmuz drums gives each set a unique look and distinctive tone. The lacquer used to finish 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 shell "floats" above the drum shell so as to minimize contact with the drum. This allows the entire shell to resonate across the full range of tones. To minimize the risk of drums going out of tune, each contains a long screw that seats deeply in the lug. Additionally, each has dual protection in the form of two washers—metal and nylon—which guarantee tuning stability. Chrome hardware In Polmuz drums all hardware is finished with a chrome plating. The beautiful appearance gives a sense of the highest quality materials used and breaks with the unfortunate reputation of the brand from years past. The cast logo on Polmuz shells is a true declaration of quality and style. Made from solid brass and chrome-plated, the Polmuz nameplate is a guarantee and calling card of the highest level of craftsmanship in 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 from aluminum ensure lighter weight. Bass drum hooks The hooks on Polmuz bass drums are equipped with rubber pads that help protect their wooden rims from damage. In this arrangement, hooks and rims form one cohesive unit so they don't separate or rattle, even with loose tuning. Heads Transparent, 1-ply high-quality heads are used on the drums. The batter heads additionally feature a wide muffling collar. The resonant heads are distinguished by a characteristic vintage-style head with prominent Polmuz logo.
