    I picked this up at my local GC a couple months ago heavily discounted on clearance. Let me be clear, this drum sounds great. It has a wide snare bed and works well with various snares up to 42 without issue. For my needs a 16 strand with the wood hoops and 2 ply coated top is perfect. The exterior of the drum is gorgeous. Installed are tastefully styled lugs and the dye/laquer finish is clean (I have the Sienna). But why 2 stars? While doing maintence I noticed the throwoff is crooked. When dropping the snare the mechnism comes down at an angle. There's no slop in the holes to align the throwoff. The holes are simply poorly drilled. Next on the bottom bearing edge I can feel where the router was pulled away from the drum. There's a noticable bump on the outer edge and it's no where near the snare bed. I'm sure I can send this back to be fixed but why should anyone have to deal with that? These are glaring issues that should be caught before shipping. Luckily, I got mine heavily discounted. I would not pay full price regardless of this drum sounding good. There are many other brands or even maybe another series from Tama that offer higher quailty workmanship and comparable sonic perfomance at equal cost. No drummer should have to deal with these types of issues. I can't recommend any SLP but I still love Tama. Spend your hard earned money elsewhere.
