Drums is offering Benchmark Copper drum sets for a limited time, the company
announced. The kits are the second in a line of Limited
Edition lacquered-finish drumsets, following the Carmel Fade kits.
The Carmel Fade drumsets sold out 23 days after their release earlier this
year. The Benchmark Copper
drums are available in Pro-M and M-Series editions.
Benchmark Copper drum sets will be available from Mapex in two
configurations, both featuring a 22" x 18" bass drum and an optional 8" x 7"
rack tom. Standard configuration will include short-shell toms measuring 10"
x 7" and 12" x 8" and a 14" x 14" floor tom. The alternate arrangement
includes larger toms measuring 12" x 8" and 13" x 9", as well as a 16" x 16"
floor tom.
Mapex's Pro-M line is made from 7.1mm alternating 7-ply maple
and basswood shells.
M-Series kits include 8.1mm alternating 8-ply maple and basswood shells to
deliver deep tones. These kits also include Mapex's
non-penetrating I.T.S. (Isolated Tom System), 2.3mm Rigid Chrome
steel hoops and double-braced hardware. All Mapex Drums are equipped with
Remo drumheads.
