SONIClear™ technology has been added to the Mapex Saturn kits and they sound all the better for it! SONIClear™ bearing edges and a SONIClear™ Tom Holder are now as standard within the Saturn V series, to start with the bearing edges make the tuning process a hell of a lot easier as well as boosting the tone and tuning range. Increased contact between the edge and head of the drum, allows for a more distinct sound that is fuller and more well rounded than ever before. The Tom Holder gives you the opportunity to add an extra tom should you wish as well as bass drum spurs and claw hooks, which ensure the hoop is protected from damage during longer drumming sessions.
