Description

Adams 29″ Professional Generation II Copper Timpani is a premium orchestral drum delivering a powerful, resonant tone with smooth pedal tuning and elegant construction. Crafted from seamless copper and equipped with Adams’ Generation II balanced-action pedal mechanism, this timpano provides professional-level performance for symphony orchestras, academic institutions, and advanced soloists.

Materials and Build Quality

The 29″ bowl is deep-drawn from seamless polished copper, ensuring rich tonal warmth and dynamic resonance. The traditional parabolic shape offers a broad, full-bodied sound with excellent pitch center and projection across the C–G range. The bowl is mounted on a rugged, lightweight suspension frame designed for stability, mobility, and stage-ready presentation.

Adams’ Generation II balanced-action pedal system enables smooth, stable tuning with effortless pitch transitions during performance. The integrated fine-tuning gauge provides accurate visual pitch reference, while high-tension tuning lugs and a reinforced counterhoop maintain consistent head tension and tuning stability over time. This drum is built for long-term reliability in even the most demanding performance settings.

It offers ideal mid-low register coverage for repertoire by Beethoven, Brahms, Mahler, and modern composers. Whether in an orchestra pit, concert hall, or recital stage, the 29″ Professional GEN2 model combines tonal integrity and mechanical precision for expressive, reliable playing.
