Adams 29″ Professional Generation II Fibre Timpani

Adams 29″ Professional Generation II Fibre Timpani offers a practical, lightweight solution for performers and institutions seeking quality sound and dependable tuning at an affordable price. Built with a durable fibreglass bowl and the trusted Generation II pedal system, this timpano delivers warm tone, smooth operation, and long-term reliability in school, rehearsal, and mobile performance settings.

Materials and Build Quality

The 29″ bowl is constructed from reinforced fibre (fibreglass) and shaped into a parabolic profile to produce a full, resonant tone with clear pitch definition. While significantly lighter than copper, the fibre bowl provides excellent projection and is highly resistant to fluctuations in temperature and humidity—making it perfect for both indoor and outdoor use, or for institutions with multiple users and variable conditions.

Adams’ Generation II balanced-action pedal mechanism provides smooth, consistent tuning with minimal resistance, allowing performers to make fast and accurate pitch adjustments during rehearsals or live performances. A built-in fine-tuning gauge gives clear visual reference, while the robust counterhoop and high-tension lugs offer reliable tuning stability. The drum is mounted on a lightweight aluminum suspension frame with pneumatic height adjustment and large locking casters for flexible positioning and secure transport.

Performance and Use Case

Covering the C–G range, the 29″ Professional GEN2 Fibre Timpani is a core voice in any four- or five-drum configuration. It’s ideal for school bands, community orchestras, university percussion studios, and touring setups. Its balance of rich tone, mechanical precision, and low maintenance makes it an excellent choice for institutions and performers needing dependable daily-use instruments.
