TAMA 7850N4H Octoban 4pc High-Pitch Set
Melodic Percussion for Creative Drummers
The TAMA 7850N4H Octoban High-Pitch Set brings one of TAMA’s most iconic percussion innovations straight to your setup. First introduced in the late 1970s, Octobans have been a favourite of progressive and experimental drummers such as Simon Phillips, Stewart Copeland, Mike Portnoy, and Billy Cobham. Instead of varying diameter, Octobans achieve pitch purely through shell length, allowing you to integrate melodic phrases seamlessly into your grooves.
Compact, Tuneful and Distinctively TAMA
This 4-piece high-pitch set features 6-inch diameter fibreglass shells, producing a clear, cutting tone that projects beautifully on stage and in the studio. Each drum offers a unique pitch thanks to its varying depth, giving you a musical spread perfect for fills, accents, or percussion-driven compositions. The included HOW49W double-braced stand provides stable, adjustable support with TAMA’s renowned hardware reliability.
