Mapex’s flagship Orion Series established the standard for high-end exotic veneer maple drums. Thin North American shells produce outstanding resonance and crisp Mapex tone. Luxurious hand-rubbed lacquer finishes ensures that the Orion Series looks as spectacular as it sounds. In order to satisfy the discerning needs of the musician, Orion is sold by component only, allowing the buyer to specify exactly the sizes and configuration that best suit his or her style.

Orion components can be ordered with chrome, black or gold hardware.
