MAPEX's Saturn Studioease 5-piece shell pack combines the brand's prized Saturn wood formula with upgrades aimed at maximizing resonance and power of this shell pack. The 7-ply maple and walnut shells feature MAPEX's Air Flow Venting system, which allows the drum heads to flex for extra vibration. SONIClear bearing edges also increase shell-to-head contact, coaxing a broad range of tones from the 22" kick, 10" and 12" toms, and the 14" and 16" floor toms.

Air Flow Venting Boosts Projection

MAPEX's proprietary Air Flow Venting pierces strategic holes in the shells, allowing drum heads to flex and resonate freely. The result is a kit that projects with force, despite its space-efficient sizes. Drummers will feel the difference, with toms and kick that respond eagerly to every stroke.

SONIClear Edges Expand the Tonal Palette

The rounded SONIClear bearing edges on the Saturn Studioease shells allow for maximum contact between drum heads and wood. This simple upgrade has a significant impact, coaxing a wider range of tones from the kit. Drummers can elicit warm, vintage-inspired sounds or brighter, more cutting attacks with ease by adjusting tuning and muffling.

Rugged Hardware for Stability

To ensure solid setup and prevent unwanted movement, MAPEX includes a pair of TH800 tom holders and 90-degree floor tom legs with memory locks. These components keep the smaller drums securely in place during even the hardest-hitting performances.
