Originally founded by Hoshino Gakki in 1974, the brand quickly became a staple for heavy hitters in rock and metal due to their rugged durability and powerful projection. Today, that legacy of craftsmanship spans every genre, from delicate jazz fusion to technical progressive metal. Tama doesn't just build drums for the stadium stage; they engineer equipment for every step of a musician's career.
