Sakae Drums is revisiting a legendary drum sound with the introduction of the Trilogy series. “Our approach was to utilize the 3-ply shell in a way that would have a distinctive Sakae sound, but still pay homage to that vintage sound so loved after all these years,” states Eizo Nakata, president of Sakae Drums.
Sakae’s proprietary Maple/Poplar/Maple 3-ply shells are at the heart of Trilogy’s vintage sound. 4-ply North American Maple reinforcement rings at the top and bottom of the shell help to dry the sustain and keep the ultra-thin shell in round.
The hardware is lightweight and helps allow the thin shell to resonate as much as possible. Also, the Trilogy series is extremely lightweight, making it the perfect kit for the classic Jazz tones of the ‘50s. Sakae’s distinctive attack, when utilized with thicker drumheads, creates the punchy, dry tones of early R&B and ‘70s Rock.

2017 marks our 92nd anniversary at SAKAE Rhythm, as well as a big turning point for us. Beginning with the founder, Eiichi Nakata, everyone at SAKAE has dedicated themselves to producing the highest quality drums which have been enjoyed and embraced by so many people worldwide.
I know that we are here because of two key factors: our commitment to the traditions of making drums of the utmost quality and excellence, which are hand crafted in our factory by the finest skilled craftsmen; and all our fans from around the world who support us.
As “Sakae” means “prosperity” in Japanese, we continue to take the art of sound creation to an even higher level for the player, the audience and every music fan. SERIES

The Celestial kit features Sakae’s new Chamber Specific Technology (CST) process, which is another innovation in the 90 year history of Sakae drum making and the result of decades of collaborations with some of the world’s top drummers. This ground-breaking instrument focuses on each drum (or “Chamber”) and the specific treatment needed to produce the most desired sound for that sized shell. With the CST process, Sakae has essentially pre-EQ’d each drum so that each speaks with its ultimate musical tone.
The Celestial Series uses 2-plies of African Bubinga on the outside of the shell combined with North American Maple on the inside. By having the harder Bubinga wood at the bearing edge where the head contacts the drum, you get the most profound properties.
Keeping this consistent tone and level of resonance from the hardwood allows Sakae to adjust the low-end, sustain, and projection for the various drum sizes. The amount of plys and the bearing edge of each shell is determined by what is best for the size of the drum. For example a bigger drum, such as a bass drum, has a 10-ply shell with a rounder bearing edge, while a smaller rack tom will have a 4 to 6-ply shell with sharper edges. All of this, while maintaining a drum kit’s collective sound. Never before has a drum kit been treated with this level of focus to get the optimal sound and tone from each drum in the kit. The expression level, tuning range, presence and purity of tone is unparalleled.

Metal Snare DrumsSakae Metal Snare drums feature brass, seamless aluminum and steel. They are available in 14” x 5.5” and 14” x 6.5” sizes. Specifically designed lightweight lugs and high quality, compact strainers allow for each shell’s characteristic to be heard clearly. The bead is located at the edges to allow for a wider tuning range and easier transition of vibration.
Wood Snare Drums Sakae’s Wooden Snare drums feature heavy union lugs combined with wood shells for maximum resonance. The throw off has been designed to be one of the smoothest and quietest on the market.
Effects Snare DrumsSakae has created specific Effect Snare drums to enhance and accentuate unique sound colors needed in today’s music. Each of these drums are outfitted with lighter hardware to allow the shell to be as free as possible. This freedom allows for the characteristic of the shell to ring more honestly and true.
Concert Snare DrumsSakae’s Concert Snare drums are created with the utmost sensitivity in mind. From the different maple shell construction to the special Sakae made snare wires, every detail has been designed for the touch of the most sensitive of players.
