If you were thinking about a new kit - look no further than the new Mapex Saturn MVH Exotic co-designed by Russ Miller (formerly of Yamaha Drums). This kit is unbelievably gorgeous.

The 5pc Shell Pack (10/12/14/16/ Toms, 22 BD, no snare) will be hitting our floor soon enough and will be selling for $1,929.00. YEP! 5 pieces of Exotic Drums for only $1,929.00! WOW!
"The Mapex Drum Company is revolutionizing their flagship Saturn line by introducing the Saturn IV series of drum kits. Together with respected artists around the globe, the Mapex team has created the next evolution of the Saturn line, featuring a host of upgrades including: SONIClear tom suspension, SONIClear floor tom legs, low-contact bass drum claws, Memory Mark bass drum spurs, new style-badge and lug casing , free-floating bass drum mount (optional), and some really striking new finishes. While holding true to the Maple/Walnut hybrid shell formula that's made Saturn a unique and respected pro-level kit, the new look and features mark a significant departure from the Saturn (and Mapex) of old. The new Saturn kits will arrive in stores beginning in March 2013.
