Mapex has introduced an exciting new
special edition VX Series drum set that is sure to attract the attention of
selected genres of players. The new “Black on Black” set is a new six-piece,
two-up, two-down configuration that features polished black lacquer shells
outfitted with flat black lugs, hoops and fittings. The result is a dramatic
looking set that promises to be particularly appealing to rock and metal
drummers looking for a large, feature-filled drum set at an extremely
competitive price.
“When we first saw this drum set, we knew we had a winner,” said Joe Vasko, Vice
President and General Manager of Mapex USA. “We have a limited quantity of these
kits available and I’m very confident that it will be one of our most popular
sellers for the holiday season. I would encourage dealers to get these while
they can.”
The configuration includes a 22x18 bass drum, 10x8 and 12x9 suspended tom toms,
14x14 and 16x16 floor toms with legs and a 14x5.5 snare drum. The set also comes
with a full set of Mapex 320 Series hardware, including a snare stand, hi-hat
stand, straight cymbal stand, boom stand, tom holder and bass drum pedal.
The VX series was reintroduced in 2007 by Mapex and has enjoyed a robust rebirth
thanks to a new series of popular lacquer finishes and many appointments, such
as ITS mounts, not typically found on drum sets in its price range. VX Series
shells are made using premium basswood plies that feature outstanding tone and
resonance.
