POLMUZ MODEL 3 – BIRCH

Polmuz – a legendary brand that produced the first Polish drums, known to every drummer. The company was established in the 1960s, with its facilities located at Grochowska Street 75/77 in Warsaw. In addition to drums, Polmuz also manufactured percussion instruments and brass instruments. The last drums were produced in the late 1990s and then completely disappeared from the market. In 2018, the team from the specialized drum store DrumStore in Gdynia decided to revive the Polmuz brand by acquiring the full rights to its name.

Today, Polmuz offers high-quality drum kits and ethnic instruments that rival the best products on the market. Bold design combined with proven solutions has allowed Polmuz to make a strong impact not only on the Polish drumming market but also on the hearts of those who remember their first Polmuz drums.

FEATURES

Once upon a time, beyond seven mountains and forests, there lived a man named Tomek. Tomek dreamed of being able to buy a professional drum kit with hardware for 3500 PLN. He wondered why top drum manufacturers didn’t offer professional features in drums at this price range, as he wanted to sell such kits himself. Instead of waiting for salvation, he thought, “Hmm, I should probably do it myself.” Coincidentally, Tomek was a production technologist and architect, so he knew how to approach it. The design work took a long time, with prototype after prototype, but eventually, success was achieved.

MAIN FEATURES

  • 100% birch shells with no cheap poplar mixtures
  • Professionally finished edges to ensure proper drumhead seating and excellent tuning
  • Beautiful vintage-style metal logo, not a plastic badge
  • Non-perforated bass drum
  • Professional suspension system that does not integrate into the drum
  • Beautiful lacquer with visible wood grain, not a cheap thin veneer
  • Double-chain drive kick pedal easily mounted to the bass drum, plus HH with spring tension adjustment
  • Ball-mounted tom holders with locking screws from both sides that do not drop during play
  • Distinctive sound

100% Birch Shells

The shells in the Birch series are made from 6 layers of birch with a total thickness of 6.9 mm. The highest priority in designing Polmuz drums was the sound. Balanced mid and high tones provide great versatility across various musical styles. The specific characteristics of birch wood give the drums a unique sound that you won’t experience with any other drums. The focused and clear sound of the shells is achieved through the careful selection of birch layers, as well as attention to shell formation and edge shape. The drums offer a clear top end and pleasant low bass. They have a balanced sound profile, so in both studio and live settings, they require minimal adjustment from the engineer.

Mounting System

The non-intrusive mounting system ensures maximum resonance and stability regardless of the conditions. This design allows for toms to be positioned closer together, providing greater freedom and comfort.

Bass Drum Hooks

The bass drum hooks on Polmuz kits are equipped with rubber pads to help protect the wooden hoops from damage. In this setup, the hooks and hoops form a unified whole, preventing them from separating or rattling, even with loose tuning.

Finish

The lacquered finish of the Polmuz drums gives each kit a unique appearance and distinctive sound. The lacquer used for finishing the birch drums by Polmuz is of excellent quality. The stunning blue-to-black gradient will impress even the most discerning tastes. The composition and application method of the lacquer are comparable to those used in high-end series of well-known brands.
