Description
Adams 40×18″ Universal Series Gen II Concert Bass Drum offers deep, resonant tone in a compact, easy-to-handle format. Built for school music programs, rehearsal halls, and mobile ensembles, it delivers professional-quality sound with reliable, lightweight construction.
Deep Tone, Quick Response
With a 40″ diameter and a shallower 18″ depth, this model provides full, low-end tone with quicker articulation. The shorter depth makes it ideal for rhythmic clarity while still giving the drum a commanding, resonant presence—perfect for school bands, chamber groups, or indoor concert use.
Free-Suspended Frame for Maximum Resonance
The free-suspended design allows the shell to vibrate freely, resulting in greater sustain and openness. By isolating the shell from the frame, Adams enhances the natural tone and reduces damping, helping this drum sound larger than its size would suggest.
Lightweight Frame with Locking Casters
The Gen II frame is lightweight but strong, built for daily school use and frequent transport. Oversized locking casters allow for smooth movement and secure setup in any environment. Height adjustment ensures a comfortable playing position for students and ensemble members of all ages.
Practical and Performance-Ready
Fitted with durable synthetic heads, this model offers stable tuning and consistent tone in all weather conditions. Its manageable size and versatile tone make it ideal for programs needing a reliable concert bass drum that’s easy to move and store.
