Product Description
The Mapex Saturn VI Studioease Shell Pack in Exotic Natural Maple is a professional hybrid maple/walnut kit that blends rich musical tone with modern playability. With its expressive, resonant voice, effortless tuning and studio-ready clarity, this is a workhorse shell pack for drummers who need a kit that sounds huge on stage and records beautifully in the studio.
At the heart of the Saturn VI is Mapex’s renowned hybrid shell, pairing the warmth and projection of maple with the dark, focused punch of walnut. Add in SONIClear bearing edges, advanced suspension and carefully engineered hardware, and you get a kit that tunes quickly, responds to every nuance of your playing and delivers a powerful, controlled sound across all dynamic levels.
Hybrid Maple/Walnut Tone
The Saturn VI’s hybrid maple/walnut shells give you the best of both worlds: maple provides open, musical resonance and a full low end, while walnut tightens the attack and adds a darker, more focused character. The result is a kit that feels big and warm under the sticks, yet still cuts clearly through guitars and bass without sounding harsh. Whether you are playing subtle ghost notes or heavy backbeats, every stroke speaks with authority.
SONIClear Bearing Edges
Mapex’s SONIClear bearing edges are designed to let the head sit flatter and make full contact with the shell, which dramatically improves tuning stability and response. You can get a usable sound faster, with less time spent chasing dead spots or fighting awkward tension ranges. The drums open up at both high and low tunings, so you can move from tight, articulate pop tones to deep, booming rock sounds with ease.
Studioease Configuration
The Studioease configuration is tailored for modern players who need versatility and balance. The 22 inch bass drum delivers a solid, punchy foundation, while the tom sizes offer a smooth, musical spread that works across rock, pop, fusion and beyond. It is a layout that feels instantly familiar, sits comfortably in a mix and adapts easily to different musical situations, from small club gigs to full studio sessions.
Advanced Mounting and Hardware
With the SONIClear tom holder and suspension system, SAS Static 90° floor tom legs, Sonic Pedestal floor tom feet and carefully placed air flow venting, the Saturn VI is engineered to let the shells resonate as freely as possible. The mounting hardware isolates the drums from stands and the floor, reducing unwanted choking and allowing longer, more musical sustain. You get a cleaner, more controlled tone that is easier to mic and more inspiring to play.
Features
- Hybrid Maple/Walnut Shells - The combination of maple and walnut delivers a rich, full-bodied tone with enhanced low end and a focused, punchy attack. This hybrid construction gives the kit the power to cut through a live mix while still sounding smooth and controlled in the studio.
- SONIClear Bearing Edges - Precision SONIClear bearing edges help the heads seat perfectly on the shells, making tuning quicker and more consistent. You spend less time adjusting lugs and more time playing, with drums that respond evenly across the entire head.
- SONIClear Tom Holder and Suspension System - The dedicated tom mounting system isolates the toms from the hardware, allowing them to resonate more freely. This improves sustain, clarity and projection, so your toms sing with a clear, musical note at any volume.
- Sonic Pedestal Feet and SAS Static 90° Legs - Specially designed floor tom feet and rigid 90° legs minimise contact with the floor while keeping the drum stable. This lets the shell vibrate more naturally, giving you a deeper, more resonant floor tom sound with better definition.
