Mapex Armory Drum Kit Shell Pack 6pc 22" Rock - Black Onyx Burst

Mapex Armory 6pc 22" Rock Drum Kit Shell Pack – Black Onyx Burst

The Mapex Armory 6pc 22" Rock Drum Kit Shell Pack in Black Onyx Burst combines versatile maple/birch hybrid shells with an expanded six-piece configuration, professional Mapex features and a sophisticated dark burst finish.

Designed for drummers who want a larger setup with an extended tonal range, the Armory 6pc Rock configuration combines two rack toms, two floor toms and a powerful 22" bass drum, complete with the Armory Tomahawk steel snare. The result is a highly capable acoustic kit for rock, pop, metal, alternative, progressive music and a huge variety of contemporary styles.

At the heart of the kit are Mapex's maple/birch hybrid shells, combining the warmth and body of maple with the punch, attack and projection of birch.

Expanded 6-Piece Configuration

The Mapex Armory 6pc Rock shell pack features:

• 22" Bass Drum

• 10" Rack Tom

• 12" Rack Tom

• 14" Floor Tom

• 16" Floor Tom

• 14" x 5.5" Armory Tomahawk Snare Drum

The combination of 10" and 12" rack toms with 14" and 16" floor toms provides a wide tonal range and a natural progression around the kit.

The rack toms deliver punch and articulation, while the two floor toms provide substantial depth and low-end power. Anchoring the setup is the 22" bass drum, delivering the projection, punch and presence expected from a full-size rock configuration.

Maple/Birch Hybrid Shells

The distinctive sound of the Mapex Armory Series comes from its maple/birch hybrid shell construction.

Maple contributes warmth, body and a rounded fundamental tone, while birch adds attack, focus and projection. Together, these tonewoods create a powerful yet balanced sound that works exceptionally well both on stage and in the studio.

Across the expanded six-piece configuration, the hybrid shell formula provides a consistent tonal character from the smaller rack toms through to the larger floor toms and bass drum.

SONIClear Bearing Edges

Mapex SONIClear bearing edges are designed to optimise contact between the drumhead and shell, helping the heads seat correctly and allowing the drums to tune easily.

The result is a strong fundamental note, excellent resonance and a broad usable tuning range. Tune the Armory low for deep, powerful contemporary sounds or take it higher for additional articulation and definition.

SONIClear Suspension System

The SONIClear suspension system securely supports the rack toms while allowing the shells to resonate naturally.

By minimising unnecessary restriction of the shell, the system helps maximise sustain and tonal depth while providing the positioning flexibility required for a comfortable multi-tom setup.

Armory Tomahawk Snare Drum

Completing the six-piece shell pack is the 14" x 5.5" Mapex Armory Tomahawk steel snare drum.

Its steel shell delivers a crisp, articulate response with plenty of attack and projection, providing an excellent contrast to the warmer maple/birch shells of the toms and bass drum.

This gives the kit a versatile snare voice capable of cutting confidently through a full band mix.

Black Onyx Burst Finish

The Black Onyx Burst finish gives the Mapex Armory a sophisticated and modern appearance.

Its dark graduated burst creates impressive visual depth across the shells while remaining understated enough to suit virtually any stage or studio environment. Across this larger six-piece setup, the finish creates a particularly impressive premium aesthetic.
