Adams 32″ Universal Fibre Timpani

Adams 32″ Universal Fibre Timpani delivers rich, resonant sound in a lightweight and portable design—ideal for schools, rehearsal spaces, and ensembles on the move. As the largest model in the Universal Fibre range, this timpano provides deep tone, smooth pedal tuning, and dependable performance wherever it’s needed.

Materials and Build Quality

The 32″ bowl is made from durable fibreglass and shaped into a traditional parabolic profile. This design creates a strong fundamental tone with excellent sustain and projection. Lighter than copper, the fibre bowl makes transport and setup easy, while resisting humidity and temperature changes—perfect for both indoor and outdoor use.

Adams’ balanced-action pedal system allows for smooth, accurate pitch changes with minimal effort. A built-in fine-tuning gauge gives clear visual reference for fast adjustments. Reinforced counterhoops and high-tension tuning lugs help maintain even head tension and consistent tuning over time. The lightweight suspension frame includes pneumatic height adjustment and locking casters for secure placement and effortless mobility.

Performance and Use Case

This 32″ Universal Fibre Timpani is ideal for ensembles needing a solid low-end voice without the weight of copper. It works perfectly in a four- or five-drum setup and is especially useful in school bands, touring groups, and youth orchestras. Whether for rehearsal, performance, or transport between venues, this model offers a great mix of sound quality and convenience.
