With the first snow, it's time for a winter session. Today's model is the classic maple Polmuz Model 1, with sizes 20x16 10x8 12x9 16x16, shell thickness 5mm. The most popular color this autumn is Satin Brown showing wood grain in a satin, silky finish. The entire set is protected from the inside with oil and wax and additionally uses stainless steel screws. When crafting these drums, I used a special method to reveal the grain of this beautiful wood. How does this happen ????? – that's, of course, Polmuz's secret. BD hoops hide the natural maple color inside.
The revived Polmuz brand drums bear no resemblance to their predecessors from the last century. Today, Polmuz stands above all for bold design combined with proven and solid technologies, known from the products of the best brands.
The maple shells of this set provide complete freedom in shaping your sound, excelling in every music genre. The minimalist, old-school look of Polmuz drums pays homage to the brand's history and gives a vintage character.
Groundbreaking, unconventional designs, high-quality craftsmanship, and convincing sound mean that Polmuz tradition is starting anew today!

Features
100% maple shells
The Maple series shells are made from 6 plies of maple with a total thickness of 5 mm. The highest priority in designing Polmuz drums was sound. Balanced midrange and high frequencies provide great versatility across many music styles. The full, powerful character and rich resonance of the shells were achieved through carefully selected maple plies and focus on shell forming and edge shape.
Edges
The 45° bevel on the edges ensures they make contact with the head at the optimal point. Each edge on Polmuz drums has been ground and additionally waxed, ensuring perfect head-to-shell contact. This results in a clear sound across the full frequency range. Sharp edge finishing on tom bearing edges creates a quick attack and short sustain, while a rounded edge on bass drum generates a unique, warm vintage tone.
Finish
The matte finish on Polmuz drums gives each set a unique look and distinctive sound. The lacquer used for finishing Maple Polmuz drums is of the highest quality.
Tube Lug
Tube Lugs are characteristic of all Polmuz drums. The unique Tube Lug construction makes them look like traditional mounts, but the lug "floats" above the shell to minimize contact with the drum. This allows the entire set to resonate across the full sound range. To minimize the risk of drums going out of tune, each lug features a long screw that sits deep within it. Additionally, each is protected by dual washers – metal and nylon – which guarantee tuning stability.
Chrome hardware
In Polmuz drums, all hardware is finished with a chrome plating. The beautiful appearance conveys a sense of highest quality materials and breaks from the brand's unfortunate reputation from years past. The cast logo on Polmuz shells is a true declaration of quality and style. Made from solid brass and chrome-plated, the Polmuz nameplate is a guarantee and signature of the highest level of craftsmanship in each drum.
Mounting system
The non-invasive mounting system ensures maximum resonance and stability regardless of conditions. The streamlined construction makes it easy to position toms closer together, providing greater freedom and comfort. Additionally, aluminum components provide lower weight.
Bass drum lugs
The lugs on Polmuz bass drums are equipped with rubber washers that help protect wooden hoops from damage. In this arrangement, lugs and hoops form one cohesive unit, so they don't separate or rattle, even with loose tuning.
Heads
Transparent, 1-ply heads of high quality are used in the drums.
The batter heads additionally feature a wide muffling collar. The resonant heads are distinguished by a characteristic vintage-style head with a distinctive Polmuz logo.
