For the professional musician

The Taye StudioMaple series is the pinacle of the drum maker's art. The StudioMaple drum will track your every move and mirror your touch. Crafted from specially selected north American Sugar Maple, the StudioMaple is a drum that will erupt in an optimum blend of highs, lows and mids. 

Our shells are thin and resonant. Fine maple veneers are cross laminated and molded using state of the art techniques, making a shell that is rigid and durable. Everything from the bearing edge to the suspension mounts conspires to make StudioMaples drums one of the world's finest instruments--a drum that is instantly recognizable for it's rich sound and evocative lacquer finishes. 

Taye StudioMaple is the ultimate in professional drums. They are drums that make you want to play them in the first place. Snare drums sizzle, toms open up with defined pitches and bass drums provide the last word in attack, body, and shuddering sub-lows. These are not ordinary maple drums, these are Taye StudioMaple drums that present a whold new palette of sound colors.
