Adams Professional Generation II Fiberglass Timpani - Product Information

Adams Professional Generation II Fiberglass Timpani offer an unbelievably affordable price for an instrument of this quality. The slogan "Sound of Quality" perfectly reflects where Adams stands for. Brand values which can be found back in the complete organisation. Adams continuously applies developments which lead to improvements in sound, but also in durability. It may be clear that Adams, with all those developments, had big influence on the evolution of the timpani. With the introduction of the Adams Professional Generation II Timpani, Adams once again sets the standard in technique, sound and durability.

Special Features
New patented Balanced Action Pedal Mechanism Professional Generation II timpani now feature the all–new patented Balanced Action Pedal Mechanism as used on the Revolution Series with adjustable spring tension. With this mechanism, the pedal action is smooth and offers the player an extended tuning range with a familiar balanced feel and adjustability via a tension knob.

New suspension ring: better sound
The Professional GenII Bowl is suspended from a single flange chrome plated steel ring supported by strong struts for maximum sustain and projection.

New wheels: glide with fingertip effort
New large commercial grade double-locking, double-wheel swivel casters and stylish base legs with a wider stance, offer the drum more stable support while being played, and safer manoeuvrability. The Professional Generation II drums also feature an integrated locking 3rd wheel assembly on the player's side with two permanently affixed wheels and brake allowing for nearly effortless instrument moving.

Possibility to use calf heads
The new Adams pedal system used on the Professional GenII, is the only Balanced Action Pedal Mechanism in the world that allows you to play with calf heads.

Professional Generatoion II Series Timpani are available with Hammered Cambered Copper, Hammered Copper, Polished Copper, and Fiberglass bowl options in 5 standard sizes: 20",23",26",29",32".

Great Sound (for fiberglass), VERY reliable

Comments:

My Adams Professionals (set of 5) in fiberglass are of the original series and I've owned them for over 15 years now. So I'll speak reliability and durability first. When I bought the drums I could have afforded copper, but I free-lance and move my drums ALL THE TIME. Thus my motivation for fiberglass. Well, they have stood the test of time: knocked about (albeit unintentionally), stored in van in heat and cold, etc: and NEVER a mechanical issue. Sound. I use Renaissance heads (hazy) and the drums sound full, pitch precise. I've played them side-by-side with Walter Lights, and as you'd assume Lights sound better at 5x the price. If you have a regular gig with a big orchestra in a big hall: don't get Adams in fiberglass. But they still produce a big sound which for the regional orchestras in smaller halls I play with work just fine (thank you). The caster design is the best I've seen on ANY timpani. Lock them and the drums DO NOT MOVE. Not even a little wiggle room. So for student, up-and-comer, or gigging free-lancer: they are a SMART buy!

Steve Weiss ROCKS

Comments:

Steve Weiss is the hero with my purchase of these drums. Absolutely the best price ANYWHERE and delivered to me in 3 DAYS!!!! The drums are better sounding then any other fiberglass drums. They sound better then many copper drums that come with standard heads. The pedal action is not as smooth as Ludwig or Yamaha, but is reliable. The locking casters are awesome. DO NOT count on Adams support for anything more then Lip Service. Mine came with mismatched covers and after 2 years of Adams promising me matched covers, I have given up. The Steve Weiss brand padded covers are awesome. Actually have many advantages over trunks at a fraction of the price.
