Adams Mahogany Concert Bass Drum with STBD Suspended Stand - 32" x 18"

The Versatile Gold Standard for Wind Bands

Widely considered the most versatile size for high school and collegiate ensembles, the Adams 32"x18" Free Suspended Concert Bass Drum (ABDS3218) balances deep symphonic resonance with clean, controllable decay. The 100% Mahogany shell is hand-stained with a Matte Lacquer finish, producing a warm, foundational tone that easily blends with tubas and low woodwinds in both tutti and solo passages.

Gen II Free Suspended Stand

This drum comes complete with the renowned Gen II Suspended Stand. Engineered for superb control, the stand suspends the drum via rubber hanging mounts to maximize sustain. It features height-adjustable side posts and a 360-degree rotating cradle to accommodate any playing style.
