Adams now offers the highly portable Universal Series Timpani with your choice of hammered copper or fiberglass bowls for superb sound and configurations designed to fit your performing and budget needs.
The UNKH Hammered Copper Timpani and UNFI Fiber Glass Timpani are available in 20," 23," 26," 29," & 32" with regular tuning gauge -upgrade of fine tuner optional. The secret of the sound in the Copper Hammered Bowls is in the hammering which produces increased frequency range and clear pure tone making this style a favorite many top timpanists. However, the Fiber Glass Bowls of the UNFI have fantastic tone and unmatched sonic quality not found on any drums in this price range.
The Universal Series features the Adams silent action pedal system specially designed using a balanced spring mechanism that assures pedal position at any setting. Standard Tuning gauges come on all Universal timpani, however Fine tuners are also available (not standard but as an optional up-grade) as part of the Adams "ratchet free" adjustable pedal system, our fine tuner features an incredibly smooth action without increased resistance in the upper register of each drum and may also be repositioned on the drum for personal preference.
The legs on both series retract into bowl for trouble-free transportation. The easy to operate, one locking wheel brake holds wheel from both turning and rotating for secure placement. Plus the adjustable timpani angle-leg adjustment allows the ability to place the timpani in a slanted playing position for desired comfort and/or playing preference.
Remo Renaissance Custom Series Timpani heads with Insert Rings Standard on all drums, including fiberglass models, and the best quality plastic timpani heads available
All Universal Timpani include short covers, and for those planning to travel soft bags are available for each size.
