Model 3 History and Design Guidelines

Once upon a time, beyond seven mountains and forests, there lived a guy named Tomek. Tomek dreamed of being able to buy professional drums with hardware for 3500 PLN. Tomek wondered why top drum manufacturers didn't offer professional attributes on drums in this price range, because that's what he wanted to sell. Instead of waiting for salvation, he thought: hmm, I guess I have to do this myself. By pure coincidence, Tomek is a production technologist and architect, so he knew how to approach it. The design work took a long time, prototype after prototype. But there we go...

My drums had to have:

• 100% birch shells with no cheap poplar filler - done
• professionally finished edges so the head fits perfectly and tunes beautifully - done
• beautiful metal vintage-style logo, not a plastic badge - done
• solid center lugs - done
• professional suspension that doesn't penetrate the drum - done
• beautiful lacquer with visible wood grain, not cheap thin veneer - done
• I liked that blue lacquer - done
• platform base with double chain easy to mount to center lug, plus HH with spring tension adjustment - done too
• ball bearing tom holders that screw from both sides and don't sag during play - done
• authentic tone - done too

Hmm, seems like we have a success - welcome to Polmuz

Features

100% Birch Shells

The Birch series shells are made from 6 plies of birch with a total thickness of 4.8 mm. Sound was the highest priority when designing Polmuz drums. Balanced mids and highs ensure great versatility across many musical styles. Full, focused tone and resonant richness are achieved through carefully selected birch plies, as well as attention to shell forming and bearing edge shape.

Bearing Edges

The 45-degree bearing edge ensures optimal contact with the head. Each bearing edge on Polmuz drums has been sanded and additionally waxed, ensuring perfect head-to-shell contact. The result is clear tone across the full frequency range. Sharp bearing edges on toms deliver quick attack and short sustain, while rounded bearing edges on bass drums generate unique and warm vintage tone.

Finish

The lacquered finish on Polmuz drums gives each set a unique look and exceptional tone. The lacquer used on Polmuz birch drums is of excellent quality. The gorgeous blue color fading to black will delight even the most discerning tastes. The lacquer composition and application method matches those used in higher series of recognized brands.

Chrome Hardware

All hardware on Polmuz drums features chrome plating. The cast logo on Polmuz shells is a true declaration of quality and style. Made from solid brass and chrome-plated, the Polmuz nameplate is a guarantee and signature of the excellent craftsmanship of every drum.

Mounting System

A non-invasive mounting system ensures maximum resonance and stability regardless of conditions. This construction allows for closer tom positioning, providing greater freedom and comfort.

Bass Drum Lugs

The lugs on Polmuz bass drums are equipped with rubber pads that help protect the wooden hoops from damage. In this arrangement, the lugs and hoops form one cohesive unit so they don't separate or rattle, even with loose tuning.

Heads

The drums feature high-quality 1-ply struck heads under the Remo brand

The bass drum heads additionally feature a wide damping collar. The resonant heads are distinguished by a characteristic black head with a prominent Polmuz logo.
