Adams 20″ Revolution Fibre Timpani

Adams 20″ Revolution Fibre Timpani is the most compact model in the Revolution series, offering clear, articulate tone in a lightweight, portable design. Perfect for schools, chamber ensembles, and mobile performers, this timpani is built for precision, durability, and ease of transport.

Crisp, Focused Tone

The 20″ parabolic bowl is made from reinforced fibre, providing a bright and responsive tone ideal for the upper register (B–F range). While smaller than standard timpani, it retains excellent resonance and clarity, making it a valuable addition to four- or five-drum configurations.

Innovative, Travel-Ready Frame

Built on Adams’ patented Revolution frame, this model includes foldable legs and a removable base, allowing it to pack down compactly for storage and transport. The balanced-action pedal offers smooth, accurate tuning, while a fine-tuning gauge provides instant visual pitch reference during rehearsal or performance.

Fully Adjustable and Easy to Handle

A pneumatic lift system makes it easy to adjust the height for comfortable playing. Oversized locking casters ensure smooth movement and secure positioning on stage or in rehearsal rooms. Its small footprint makes it ideal for tight spaces or educational settings with limited storage.

Reliable and Consistent

Fitted with a synthetic head, the 20″ model offers tuning stability and dependable tone in all climates. Its lightweight, stackable design makes it a go-to option for ensembles needing a high-pitched timpani that’s easy to transport and store.
