General

This bass drum is part of Tama's Imperialstar, which means you can expect high quality for a low price. The Tama IPB18RL-BK VTR in Vintage Red is a compact 18-inch bass drum, made of 6 plies of poplar.

Tama IPB18RL-VTR 18-inch bass drum Vintage Red: compact and clear

This 18-inch bass drum produces a clear tone and has great resonance. The excellent resonance is partly due to Tama’s choice to glue the entire wrap to the shell of this bass drum. Not only does that improve the shell's resonance, it also gives the Vintage Red bass drum a professional look. You also get a bass drum lifter, so that your beater always strikes the middle of the drumhead.

Imperialstar series: improvements

Tama took a good look at every little detail of their Imperialstar drums, and then decided what needed improvement. One of those improvements is the fact that the wrap has been glued to the shell in its entirety, while other manufacturers only apply glue to a few spots. Furthermore, the Accu-Tune hoops ensure that your bass drum will remain consistently tuned.
