The reactivated Polmuz brand drums bear no resemblance to their predecessors from the last century. Today Polmuz is primarily about bold design combined with proven and solid technologies known from the best brands' products.
The maple shells in this set provide complete freedom in shaping the sound, excelling in every musical genre. The minimalist, old-school appearance of Polmuza harks back to the brand's history and gives a vintage character.
Groundbreaking, unconventional designs, high manufacturing quality and convincing sound mean that today Polmuz tradition is beginning anew!
POLMUZ Model 1 MAPLE is manufactured with utmost care in our workshop in Gdynia. Due to hand finishing and high customer interest, the order delivery time is 1-3 months.
QUALITY AND PROFESSIONALISM
Polmuz, like the highest series of leading manufacturers, is treated individually, which means there can be no question of any defect or irregularity in the set. Each percussion element is thoroughly inspected upon unpacking and checked with a discerning, lutier's eye. We strive for Polmuz to be remembered as a premium product - all shell edges must be perfectly even and smooth and are additionally waxed to achieve an even greater sense of professionalism and comfort. As we know well, a perfectly smooth edge unleashes joy and happiness during the traditional ritual of sliding 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 screwing bolts into perfectly fitting lugs. After such thorough quality control, individual set components receive their own label with serial number, date and handwritten signature confirming the high quality of the drum. If a defect or irregularity is detected, the shell is manufactured anew.
WARRANTY
Each Polmuz shell, after passing the test, receives a lifetime warranty and the hardware used in Polmuz drums receives a 3-year warranty.

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 midrange and treble tones ensure great versatility across many musical styles. The full, powerful character and rich resonance of the shells were achieved through the use of carefully selected maple layers and attention to shell forming and edge shape.
Edges
The 45° edge cut ensures they contact the head at the optimal point on the flat surface, making tuning incredibly easy.
Many contemporary companies cut the edge so that contact with the head falls on the head's curve. This greatly complicates tuning, especially on so-called "rag" heads.
Each edge in Polmuz drums has been sanded and additionally waxed, ensuring perfect head-to-shell contact. The consequence of such a solution is clear sound across the full frequency range. Sharp bearing edge delivers fast attack, selective and expressive tone.

Finish
The matte finish of Polmuz drums gives each set a unique look and distinctive sound. The lacquer used for finishing Maple series Polmuz drums is of the highest quality.
Tube Lug
Tube Lug style 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 to minimize shell contact. This allows the entire drum to resonate across the full range of sounds. To minimize the risk of drum detuning, each has a long bolt that seats 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-plated coating. The beautiful appearance gives a sense of highest quality materials used and breaks with the brand's unfortunate reputation from years past. 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 trademark of the highest level of craftsmanship in every drum.
Mounting system
The non-invasive mounting system ensures maximum resonance and stability regardless of conditions. The streamlined construction makes it easy to position toms closer together, providing greater freedom and comfort. Furthermore, parts made from aluminum provide less weight.
Center hook screws
The hooks in Polmuz set center drums are equipped with rubber washers that help protect their wooden rims from damage. In this arrangement, hooks and rims form one coherent whole so they don't separate or rattle, even with loose tuning.
Heads
Evans tuned heads are used in the drums. G2 clear on toms and floors and EMAD on BD. You can order any Evans heads for the set.
TT and FT resonant heads are thin Polmuz Clear. The center reso is an excellent Polmuz fiberskin. Center heads additionally feature a wide muffling collar. The resonant heads are distinguished by a characteristic vintage-style head with a distinctive Polmuz logo.

ABOUT THE BRAND
Polmuz - a legendary brand manufacturing Poland's first drums, known to every percussionist. The company was founded in the 1960s, and its factories were located at 75/77 Grochowska Street in Warsaw. Besides drums, Polmuz also produced percussion effects and wind instruments. The last drums were manufactured in the late 1990s, after which they completely disappeared from the market. In 2018, the team of the specialist percussion shop DrumStore from Gdynia decided to reactivate the Polmuz brand by purchasing complete rights to its name.
Today Polmuz offers high-quality drum sets and ethnic instruments that are in no way inferior to the best competing products. Bold design combined with proven solutions have made Polmuz rapidly conquer not only the Polish percussion market, but also the hearts of those who remember their first Polmuz drums.
