Description

The Mapex Mars Birch 22″ 5pc Crossover shell pack is a five-piece set of drum shells that is ideal for drummers who want a powerful rock sound from their playing. This kit is in a one up two down configuration, meaning that there is one rack tom and two-floor toms. The rack tom is designed to be attached to a cymbal hardware as there is no mounting on the bass drum. This allows for a more boomy bass drum as the resonance isn’t affected by a mount. The single rack tom allows for closer positioning and easier access to your ride cymbal. 

Please Note – Cymbals and hardware not included.

Drums

Drums are the rhythmic backbone of modern music, providing pulse, energy, and structure across countless styles and genres. From acoustic drum kits and marching drums to hand percussion and electronic systems, drums are designed to be played physically and expressively, responding directly to touch, technique, and dynamics.

Acoustic drums are built from shells, heads, and hardware that work together to shape tone, volume, and sustain. Different sizes, materials, and tunings allow drummers to create sounds ranging from deep and powerful to tight and articulate. Electronic drums expand this further by offering volume control, sound variety, and integration with recording and digital music systems.

Drums are used in live performance, recording, education, and practice, making them one of the most versatile instrument families in music. Whether played softly or with force, alone or as part of a full band, drums play a central role in driving rhythm, supporting musicians, and shaping the feel of a piece of music.
