Description

Adams 29″ Universal Copper Timpani offers warm, full-bodied tone, reliable pedal tuning, and a lightweight design that’s ideal for schools, studios, and ensembles on the move. As part of the Adams Universal Series, this model provides the perfect balance of performance quality, affordability, and portability—making it a top choice for developing percussionists and institutional music programs.

Materials and Build Quality

The 29″ bowl is deep-drawn from seamless, polished copper and shaped into a traditional parabolic profile. This combination delivers rich, centered tone with smooth resonance and strong projection. Tuned for the C–G range, this timpano is a foundational size in standard four- or five-drum setups. The copper construction ensures consistent tone across all registers, while the polished finish adds professional visual appeal.

The Universal Series features Adams’ balanced-action pedal system, designed for smooth and stable tuning transitions. A built-in fine-tuning gauge allows for quick and precise pitch reference, while the reinforced counterhoop and high-tension tuning lugs ensure stable head tension. The drum is supported by a height-adjustable suspension frame with large locking casters for mobility and secure placement during rehearsals and performances.

Performance and Use Case

The 29″ Universal timpani is well suited to concert bands, youth orchestras, school percussion programs, and rehearsal spaces where players need professional sound and practical design. Its moderate size provides excellent versatility across classical and contemporary repertoire. Lightweight yet robust, this timpano is ideal for transport and storage in environments with frequent setup and teardown.
