Of course, no one can demonstrate what they do better than Jojo Mayer himself in this video below (the action starts around 2:25). Check it out, and then check out the Dreadlocks product page on our site to learn more and pick up yours today.

Product Review: Tama STAR Drums
Tama STAR Drums are something we’re very excited about here at Rhythm Traders. These drums definitely give anyone shopping for a high-end kit something to think about. With 16 finishes, two different wood types, and more component drums than we can count, these kits are meant to be built from the ground up to your exact specifications.
The two wood types – Bubinga and Maple – each have some unique finishes along with the 7 finishes available in either type. You can see them all below:
Bubinga-Only Finishes | |
Dark Green Cordia – CDKG | Dark Red Cordia – CDKR |
Satin Natural Cordia – CSTN | Natural Indian Laurel – LNTI |
Maple-Only Finishes | |
Super Maple – SMP | Satin Amber Gold – SAG |
Satin Antique Brown – SAB | Satin Burgundy Red – SBD |
Satin Dark Mocha – SDM | |
Finishes for both Bubinga and Maple | |
Blue Gray Metallic – BGM | Dark Burgundy Metallic – DBM |
Satin Blue Metallic – SBM | Satin Green Metallic – SGM |
Antique White – ATW | Smoky Black – SKB |
Vintage Sea Blue – VSB | |
Tama has perfected these kits, inside and out. You can see below the detail they put into hand-finishing even the inside of the shells.
Tama says that these drums are fun to play. We’d like to add that they’re also fun to look at and listen to! Check out our STAR Drums page for more information, or just give us a call at 503-288-6950.
