Hi there everyone,

I am so glad to share with you this video.
Here is my new TAMA STAR Walnut set soundcheck!

I am so stoked of how the walnut sounds out of the box and more especially after having change the heads to accommodate my style!

You’ll find the heads models I chose to use on this set and also a raw recording of the before and after and also a side by side comparison of the both.

I talk about a lot of subjects in details here, so if you want to go directly to one, there is the list of chapters of the video.

Thank you for watching and see you in the next coming video!
