The Saturn V Tour Series is the latest edition to the existing Saturn V line, featuring the same hybrid shells and SONIClear bearing edge as the previous Saturn kits. Available in a range of wrapped finishes, the Mapex Saturn V Tour Series is designed to deliver modern performance whilst boasting a classic look.
Saturn is a shell that won't rest on its laurels. Its look, its tone, its robust construction has made it the only touring and recording choice for a community of professional drummers around the globe. With high-quality hybrid shells and SONIClear technology, the Saturn's shells have been enhanced to offer easier tuning, improved contact between the edge and the drum head, a fuller, more rounded tone with a deeper, darker pitch.
The shell features Mapex's unique SONIClear bearing edge, which allow the drum head to sit flatter and make better contact with the shell. The result is a drum with far greater resonance and tonal clarity, along with a deeper, more rounded tone. The SONIClear edge also allows for much easier tuning and enables the drum to consistently stay in tune.
