In 2006, at a time when drum kits were largely defined by the debate of "Maple or Birch," TAMA made a groundbreaking statement with the introduction of a revolutionary new model: the Starclassic Bubinga. This kit would go on to completely reshape the landscape of modern drum sound. Its powerful voice challenged conventional ideas of what drums could sound like and quickly took the world by storm. Establishing itself as a new benchmark for high-end drums, it secured an unshakable place in the drumming world.
Even after it was discontinued in 2018, its immense influence remains undiminished. Artists who are now in the global spotlight—like Mario Duplantier and Eloy Casagrande—continue to sing its praises, attesting to its enduring brilliance and singular sonic character.
Now, in 2026, this legendary instrument returns at last—reborn as a limited-edition revival model.
This reissue faithfully reproduces the original 9-ply, 6mm shell construction (7mm for snare and bass drums) as it was when the line was discontinued in 2018. Crafted from rare African Bubinga, the hard shell delivers thunderous low-end, immense power, and a signature dark, lustrous tone unique to Bubinga—an awe-inspiring sonic experience.
To further emphasize the deep low-end character of the wood, the toms and floor toms feature deeper shell sizes, while the bass drum comes without a tom holder base—choices made to maximize the shells' natural resonance and tonal richness.
For the outer ply, bold-grained African Cherry has been chosen, showcasing striking contrast and definition. Paired with sleek Black Nickel hardware, this kit boasts a commanding presence that visually matches its sonic impact—capturing the attention and imagination of all who see it.
Experience the sound of a legend that once shook the world—now reborn. Let it resonate through your body and soul.
