Mapex Venus 5-Piece Rock Drum Kit – Black Galaxy Sparkle

Venus Shell Technology

9-ply poplar shells

Perfect for beginning drummers, these 9-ply 7.2mm poplar shells offer smooth playability that makes adapting to your instrument so much easier. Their smooth sound boasts a high and middle range that isn’t too overbearing, but is easily tunable and rebounds with a softness that is a cinch to learn on and master rhythm. With that said, you still get the force of a punchier low end, especially from the bass drum, opening the door into a world of genres to meet the preferences of all first timers. Not to mention, it helps keep this kit within an affordable price range!

SONIClear bearing edges

Better tone and easier tuning: that’s what you can expect across the range of Venus Series toms and kick drums. Mapex’s precision SONIClear bearing edges allow heads to sit flatter and thus make better contact with the shell. This results in better seating and a stronger, deeper fundamental. Drummers have found that just finger tightening heads is enough to make these Venus drums sing. This widens the tuning range for players who prefer deeper toms and kick drums while producing purer musical pitches in higher registers.

All the hardware you need

A responsive hi-hat stand and a conveniently adjustable cymbal stand flank the Venus kit, with a sensitive and sturdy chain-driven kick pedal at the ready on the bass drum’s classic wooden hoop. And speaking of adjustability, the included bass drum-mounted double tom mount is quite stable, offering the tilting adaptability to accommodate your needs and simultaneously reduce the footprint of the Venus. Additionally, a padded black vinyl throne supplies a comfortable, compact seat for you to easily navigate your kit from.
