Bubinga is Back Bubinga is an exceptionally acoustic wood that is dark and heavy, dense. It was unavailable for some time. Now it returns in full glory. Polmuz's proposal is a 5.4mm, 9ply Bubinga shell containing a 3.2mm Bubinga Focus ring for shortening the sound and eliminating unwanted overtones. A solution proven in many top-class classical snares. The wood has been framed in gold hardware, which looks great with bubinga. Additionally, the benefits include stainless steel mounting screws and stainless steel precision tuning keys. The entire drum is covered with indestructible high solid wax and polished. This guarantees the snare's usefulness for many years. EVANS Drumheads and Puresound springs complete the craftsmanship

Bubinga shells

Edges
The 45° edge cut ensures optimal contact with the drumhead. Each edge on Polmuz drums has been polished and additionally waxed, ensuring perfect contact between the drumhead and the shell. The consequence of this solution is clean sound across the full frequency range.
Finish
The lacquered finish on Polmuz drums gives each set a unique appearance and distinctive sound. The lacquer applied to the finish of Polmuz Maple drums is of the highest quality. Gorgeous, matte, clear lacquer will delight even the most discerning tastes. To emphasize the uniqueness of this model, a decorative stripe has been created around its entire circumference using the inlay method. The composition and method of applying the lacquer corresponds to those used in top-quality sets by renowned brands.
Tube Lug
Tube Lugs are characteristic of all Polmuz drums. The unique Tube Lug construction makes them look like traditional mounts, but the lug shell "floats" above the drum shell, so as to minimize contact with the drum. This allows the entire drum to resonate across the full range of sounds. To minimize the risk of drum tuning drift, each has a long screw that is deeply seated in the lug. Additionally, each has dual protection in the form of washers - metal and nylon - which guarantee tuning stability.
Gold-plated hardware
In Polmuz drums, all hardware is finished with a chrome-plated coating. The beautiful appearance gives a sense of the highest quality materials used and breaks away from the disreputable reputation of the brand from years past. The cast logo on Polmuz shells is a true declaration of quality and style. Made of solid brass, the chrome-plated Polmuz inscription is a guarantee and signature of the highest level of craftsmanship of each drum.
Strainer
Polmuz snares are equipped with a smoothly operating strainer. The ability to adjust spring tension allows you to adjust the sound depending on the situation.
Drumheads and Springs
The drums are equipped with Evans HD Dry or Evans uno drumheads. The springs used in Polmuz snares are the proven Puresound Blaster 1420, which work perfectly with almost any resonant drumhead. Thanks to them, the snare generates characteristic sound, free of unnecessary overtones.
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.
