Polmuz Maple Model 2 - 22/10/12/16 - Satin Brown
Polmuz Model 2 in a Satin Brown finish that gives the kit a rustic vibe.
Model 2 is the brother of Model 1 - the wood is exactly the same. We simply fit slightly lighter hardware so the drums can come at an even better price.
For this build the kit got EVANS G2 clear heads on the toms plus EMAD 2 and Calftone EQ4 on the bass drum. Sizes 22/10/12/16. The Model 1 snare with a focus ring that you can see in the photos is not included in the kit.
Order the same one. This build came out of our workshop in Gdynia. We'll make you the same instrument - each one is built by hand, so the grain and colour pattern will be one of a kind. Lead time 1-4 months, 50% deposit, the rest when the instrument is ready.
The drums of the revived Polmuz brand bear no resemblance to their predecessors from the last century. Today Polmuz means above all bold design combined with proven, solid technology known from the products of the very best brands.
Groundbreaking, out-of-the-ordinary designs, high build quality and a convincing sound mean that today the Polmuz tradition starts all over again!
POLMUZ is made in Poland!

Features
100% maple shells
Maple series shells are made from 6 plies of maple with a total thickness of 4.8 mm. Sound was the top priority when designing Polmuz drums. Balanced mids and highs make them extremely versatile across many musical styles. The full, powerful character and rich resonance of the shells come from carefully selected maple plies, along with close attention to shell moulding and bearing edge profiling.
Bearing edges
The 45° edge cut means the shell meets the head at the optimal point. Every edge on Polmuz drums is sanded and additionally waxed, giving the head perfect contact with the shell. The result is a clean sound across the full frequency range. The sharp edge profile on the toms delivers a fast attack and short decay, while the rounded edge on the bass drums produces a unique, warm vintage tone.
Finish
Every Polmuz finish is made by hand in our workshop in Gdynia, so each kit has its own one-of-a-kind colour and wood grain pattern.
Tube Lug
Tube Lug lugs are a signature feature of all Polmuz drums. The unique Tube Lug design makes them look like traditional hardware, but the body of the lug "floats" above the shell to minimise contact with the drum. This lets the whole drum resonate across its full range of tones. To minimise the risk of the drums going out of tune, each lug takes a long tension rod that seats deep inside it. On top of that, every rod has a double safeguard in the form of two washers - metal and nylon - which guarantee tuning stability.
Chrome hardware
All the hardware on Polmuz drums has a chrome finish. Its beautiful look reflects the top quality of the materials used and breaks with the brand's unfortunate reputation from years ago. The cast badge on Polmuz shells is a real statement of quality and style. Made of solid brass, the chrome Polmuz logo is both a guarantee and a showcase of the highest level of craftsmanship in every drum.
Mounting system
The mounting system doesn't interfere with the shells, delivering maximum resonance and stability in any conditions. Its streamlined design makes it easy to set the toms closer together, giving you more freedom and comfort. The aluminium parts also keep the weight down.
Bass drum claws
The claws on Polmuz bass drums come with rubber gaskets that help protect the wooden hoops from damage. In this setup the claws and hoops work as one consistent whole, so they don't separate or rattle, even at loose tunings.
Drumheads
The drums are fitted with high-quality, clear, single-ply batter heads.
The bass drum heads also feature a wide damping collar. The resonant heads, in turn, stand out with their distinctive vintage-style look and a clear Polmuz logo.
Quality and Professionalism
Polmuz, like the highest series from leading manufacturers, is treated individually, meaning there can be no compromise or defect in the drum set. Each percussion element undergoes careful inspection upon unpacking and is checked with a discerning, professional eye. We strive for Polmuz to be recognized as a premium product - all shell edges must be perfectly straight and smooth, and are additionally waxed to provide an even greater sense of professionalism and comfort. As we well know, a perfectly smooth edge brings joy and satisfaction during the traditional ritual of running your hand along the edge before installing a new head, not to mention the ease of tuning the drum and the perfect sound of the shell. Additionally, all drum hardware is checked because there is nothing more pleasant than smoothly threading screws into perfectly fitted lugs. After such thorough quality control, individual components of the set receive a sticker with a serial number, date, and a handwritten signature confirming the drum's high quality. Should any defect or irregularity be found, the shell is manufactured anew.
About the Polmuz Brand
Polmuz - a legendary brand producing the first Polish drums, known to every percussionist. The company was founded in the 1960s, and its facilities were located at 75/77 Grochowska Street in Warsaw. Besides drums, Polmuz also produced percussion accessories and wind instruments. The last drums were manufactured in the late 1990s, after which they completely disappeared from the market. In 2018, the team from the specialist percussion shop DrumStore in Gdynia decided to revive the Polmuz brand by acquiring full rights to its name.
Today, Polmuz produces high-quality drum sets and ethnic instruments that are in no way inferior to the best products from competitors. Bold design combined with proven solutions has allowed Polmuz to rapidly conquer not only the Polish percussion market, but also the hearts of those who remember their first Polmuz drums.
