Here's what Mapex say about the Meridian Birch kits
Like its maple counterpart, the Meridian Birch employs the same lightweight and ergonomic isolated tom mounting system for maximum resonance and sustain. The Meridian's thin Birch shells offer plenty of attack and remarkably bright tone. The result is astounding projection and cutting power.
Additionally, the unique Mapex off-the-shell design and single-point-of-contact lugs distribute tension evenly across the shell for even better resonance and sustain.
As these drums know they are in for some serious action, all Meridian Birch sets come with all-new, feature-rich Mapex 700 Series hardware.
GLORIOUSLY GOLDEN AND DEVILISHLY DESIRABLE
This kit sounds as good as it looks, trust us. The golden shimmer of the wrap screams class and the shells do the same, the distinctive tone of the Birch is direct and clear, the shallow toms help emphasise the note with sharp attack and the hefty floors (there are two!) and the deep 22x20 kick lay as solid a foundation as you will find.
This kit is a special edition for 2012.
- 22x20 kick with no fitting, 10x7 & 12x8 short stack rack toms, 14x12 & 16x14 shallow floors and a matching 14x5.5 snare make for a powerful proposition.
