MapexQuantum Mark II Drums on Demand Series Blue Ripple Bass Drum 24 in.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
For a 24-inch marching bass-drum position, the Quantum Mark II combines a six-ply maple shell with 2.4 mm birch reinforcement rings and SONIClear bearing edges. That edge design allows the heads to lie flatter on the shell for a warm, rich resonant tone. Air vents are specified by drum size to keep the sound focused and sustain attenuated. Externally adjustable eyebolts simplify changing the drum’s height for a player without removing its heads. The Blue Ripple wrap is finished with aluminum alloy hoops and gloss chrome hardware.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Marching ensembles assigning a 24-inch bass drum and needing external height adjustment for player setup.
- School marching programs coordinating Blue Ripple shells with traditional or contemporary uniform styles.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Marching setups that require a bass drum size other than 24 inches.
