The Professional GEN II timpani are the latest innovation from the world’s leading timpani manufacturer. At the heart of the GEN II Professional is a patented, balanced action pedal mechanism with adjustable spring tension. Each drum’s pedal action is adjustable via a tension knob on the base, allowing it to be smooth over an extended tuning range. The Professional GEN II bowl is suspended from a chrome plated steel ring, and is supported by extra strong struts. New double-wheel locking casters, wider stance base legs, and integrated third wheel provide more stability and maneuverability than previously available. All GEN II Timpani include tuning gauges, short drop covers, mutes, tuning keys, and Remo Renaissance heads.

Copper Parabolic Hammered
The hammered copper bowls are press formed from a single sheet of supreme quality copper and hammered afterwards. The Adams deep-drawn method of production is far superior in tone and consistency to other common molding methods. Seamless and free of any welds or soldering, the bowl is allowed to resonant freely and evenly. This forming method also ensures an even thickness throughout the entire kettle, resulting in the ultimate in both tonal quality and projection. The bowls are suspended by a strong single flange chrome steel ring to maintain bowl roundness and offer the best protection during transport.
