General

The Mapex Mars MA529S-CRW 529 Rock in Bloodwood is a special shell set. The Mars series has a few of the high-class components from the Saturn IV line of drum sets.

Mapex Mars MA529S-CRW 529 Rock shell set Bloodwood: Clear Punch

The shells of this five-piece rock shell set are made of six plies of birch, for a perfectly focused sound, great resonance and a clear tone. The toms have a punchy clarity, while the low end provided by the bass drum and floor tom has more punch and body than ever before. The bass drum is fitted with isolating claw hooks with a rubber lining. This lining protects the bass drum hoops from being damaged, and ensures that the hardware does not start rattling as you play. The SONIClear tom mounting system comes from the Saturn IV series of drums. This system makes minimal contact with the shell, resulting in maximum resonance.

Matching Snare

A notable part of this shell set is the matching 14 x 6.5-inch snare drum. This snare produces a solid, distinct sound and has a very versatile character. The bearing edges of the shells in the Mars series are called SONIClear bearing edges. These allow the drumhead to make better contact with the shell, resulting in a more consistent tuning, an enhanced tuning range and a deeper sound. The Mars 529S Rock Blackwood is a versatile shell set with an attractive price tag!
