Adams 29″ Universal Fibre Timpani

Adams 29″ Universal Fibre Timpani combines lightweight construction, reliable tuning, and rich, resonant sound—making it the ideal choice for schools, rehearsal studios, and touring ensembles. Part of the Adams Universal Series, this timpano offers practical design, excellent performance, and long-lasting durability in any setting.

Materials and Build Quality

The 29″ bowl is made from durable, reinforced fibreglass and shaped into a traditional parabolic profile. This design produces a warm, full-bodied tone in the C–G range with excellent pitch clarity. While much lighter than copper, the fibre bowl still delivers strong resonance and projection. It’s also resistant to temperature and humidity changes—perfect for varied indoor or outdoor environments.

The balanced-action pedal system ensures smooth, accurate tuning with minimal resistance. A built-in fine-tuning gauge provides fast, visual pitch reference. Reinforced counterhoop hardware and high-tension tuning lugs keep the head securely in place and maintain consistent tuning even under frequent use. The drum sits on a height-adjustable aluminum suspension frame with large locking casters for easy transport and secure placement.

Performance and Use Case

The 29″ Universal Fibre Timpani is a key mid-range voice in any four- or five-drum configuration. It’s ideal for student performers, youth orchestras, school music programs, and ensembles needing dependable sound and mobility. Whether in rehearsal, performance, or on the move, this timpano offers a balanced blend of tone, reliability, and ease of use.
