Features

100% maple shells

The Maple series shells are made from 6 layers of maple with a total thickness of 5 mm. The highest priority in designing Polmuz drums was sound. Balanced mid and high frequencies provide great versatility across many music styles. The full, powerful character and rich resonance of the shells were achieved through the use of carefully selected maple layers, as well as careful attention to shell forming and edge shaping.

Edges

The 45° bearing edge creates optimal contact with the head. Each 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 produce a quick attack and short sustain, while the rounded bearing edge on the snare generates unique and warm vintage tone.

Finish

The matte finish on Polmuz drums gives each set a unique appearance and distinctive tone. The lacquer used on the Maple Polmuz series is of the highest quality.

Tube Lug

Tube Lug-style lugs are characteristic of all Polmuz drums. The unique Tube Lug design makes them look like traditional mounts, but the lug shell "floats" above the drum to minimize contact with the shell. This allows the entire drum to resonate across the full sound range. To minimize the risk of drums going out of tune, each one features a long screw that sits deeply in the lug. Additionally, each has double protection in the form of washers - metal and nylon - which guarantee tuning stability.

Chrome hardware

In Polmuz drums all hardware is finished with a chrome plating. The beautiful appearance gives a sense of highest quality materials used and breaks with the disreputable reputation of the brand from years ago. 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 showcase of the highest level of craftsmanship of each drum.

Mounting system

The non-intrusive mounting system ensures maximum resonance and stability regardless of conditions. The streamlined design makes it easy to position toms closer together, providing greater freedom and comfort. Additionally, parts made from aluminum ensure reduced weight.

Snare wires

The snare wires on Polmuz sets are equipped with rubber washers that help protect their wooden rims from damage. In this arrangement, the wires and rims form one cohesive unit so they don't separate or rattle, even with loose tuning.

Heads

Clear, single-ply, high-quality batter heads are used on the drums.

Snare heads additionally feature a wide damping collar. The resonant heads are distinguished by a characteristic vintage-style head with a distinct Polmuz logo.
