We’ve all been there; we know we want a new kit, but when we start to look at a few options, we can get inundated with choice, making the process overwhelming. Fortunately, if you’re not sure what to get, Mapex has a Mars kit for you.
Whether you need a basic rock tone, a tight Be-Bop tone, or something in between, there is a Mapex Mars Shell kit for you. Of course, you will need some killer hardware to round out your new kit, but we’ll get to that a little later one.
Mapex Mars Shell Kits
You might find yourself wondering what a Shell Kit is. In simple terms, a shell kit consists of only the drum shells and comes with no hardware or stands. This makes a lot of sense for drummers upgrading from an older kit as you can use your existing hardware, making the price of a new kit much cheaper.
All the Mapex Mars kits are made from 100% Birch and are a uniform 6-ply/7.2mm across all drums.
