The Bubingas have a much punchier sound in person. Very clear articulation. I have played them before and I own a Maple Custom. i love my Maple Customs but I think the Bubingas may have the advantage in today's music scene. Full tone with a shorter sustain and plenty of low end while having a nice clear high end.

Just tapped on the Bubinga/Birch Performer Sunday after church at Guitar Center. I played them then the DW Collector Series next to it and my wife even heard the difference. She said there was more body in the sound of the Bubinga/Birch.

Dude there is nothing like Tama's Bubinga drums! They sound amazing. But because I'm a yamaha fan, I still say go with the absolute series! Get the beech if you can before the year is over or catch one used.

Yeah man I have really been diggin the Bubingas lately....I'm a Yamaha fan too... so I don't know yet...if I do get the Yamaha's it'll be the maple or the beech for sure........I wanted the maples at first but now I think I want to be different...the beech sound so good on your latest track you recorded sheen....so I think it's more like Bubinga's or Beech custom...but if i'm too late for the beech...it will be maple....if I get the Tamas Bubingas i'll get them wih the short toms....sick

...the Bubinga/Birch Kit is the truth. I like it a lot more than the all Bubinga Shell.

...I'm actually starting to really like Yamaha's Birch Custom Abs. Nouveau but I would get it with a Maple Custom Abs. kick.

That's just me though.....and Teddy Campbell......and Steve Gadd. lol

I think I am the only one on here with a Tama Bubinga Snare. I will say this, It gives me the sound I've always dreamed of having in a snare. Its got a nice deep kick to it that I just love. You can feel it.

Ditto. Seriously!!! I messed around on a DW kit and then the Tama B/B kit next, my wife said the B/B's had to be more expensive since they sounded better.

You sure you are JFunky and that you just made that comment?? $:-\$

Once I get my Sonor's and sell the Ddrums...I will be looking at getting a secondary kit for the house, It will be a Tama Bubinga or B/B kit. Definitely.

...yes. I don't like the all Bubinga Shell anymore for the toms. All of that extra resonance on the toms can get kind of annoying....for me anyway. $:-\$

Gotcha. I think the Birch does do a great job of bringing the Bubinga Depth to Life.
Now granted, when I speak about my secondary kit, that is in the distant future. Definitely not anytime soon. lol.

Yes. I prefer the B/B.

What would be even better:
13" B/B snare
14" Bubinga snare
10" B/B Tom
12" B/B Tom
14" Bubinga Floor
16" Bubinga Floor
20" Bubinga Kick

I love them. just not in a small snare/small tom. They have a little too much resonance and low end for those sizes, IMHO.
