Mount Juliet, TN, April 1, 2025…Since hitting the market in 2014, the legendary Mapex Armory series has become well-established as a benchmark series of workhorse drums. While widely recognized as a visual mid-range masterpiece, its debut also marked the introduction of the famed Mapex SONIClear bearing edge profile, firmly establishing an important milestone in Mapex history. This innovation propelled the Armory Series beyond its obviously stunning good looks, offering exceptional sound quality well apart from the typical standard for mid-range drums. The SONIClear bearing edge allows the drumhead to sit flatter and make better contact with the shell resulting in a stronger and deeper fundamental pitch, effortless and consistent tuning, and a significantly expanded tuning range. This innovative edge design has gone on to be a crucial element of all Mapex drums from then forward along with signature hybrid shell materials and exotic veneered finishes.
“The Armory series drums are truly inspiring instruments” states Mapex Brand Manager Jeff Mulvihill, “craftsman bearing edges, veneer with fade finishes, and hybrid shells are specifications usually reserved for much higher end products, but we are committed to the look and sound that the Armory Series Legacy represents all while offering todays drummers the highest value on the market.”
The year 2025 marks another step forward for the Armory series upgraded with a highly curated selection of newly developed finishes, bass drum-mounted toms for increased player comfort, and upgraded drumheads for a highly inspiring sound right out of the box for both beginner and experienced players alike. The Legendary Armory Legacy continues to lead the midrange segment into the future by offering the highest value while ensuring a superior performance every time.
