  History of Tama Drums   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
During the 1970’s Tama was known as Star drums but changed the name in 1974 to Tama in order to forge a new identity for the drums that would be produced under the new name.
Tama innovated in the mid 70’s by offering improvements in hardware such as memory locks, boomstands, cymbals mates, offset tilters and multiclamps for the drums.
Tama released its Artstar series in 1983 as the new line of drum kits and is still popular to this day.

I'm not a big Tama fan, but I do think the Starclassic Performers are fun to play, and you could afford a smaller sized kit for under $1500.

The bass drums can be made to sound decent with the right tuning and heads, but I'd still stay away from it.

To truly tune your drums to their pitch remove all heads and hardware, hang the shell from a string or something and hit the edge of the shell.
Drumming at home can be annoying to those who don't appreciate the ART of the most ancient of musical instruments, soooooooo, I invested in some neoprene drum mufflers.The sound is GREATLY reduced and the most beneficial thing is the muscle tone and reflex you must use to get the rebounds and doubles and triples.
If your drums feel really dead and your stick response is like hitting a piece of leather tighten up the bottom of the drum a half turn.This could go for all the drums,snare,toms etc..
