      Yamaha's 50th Anniversary

      2017 was the year that Yamaha celebrated their 50th anniversary so to commemorate this mighty achievement they wanted to create a drum kit that really showed the quality and high standards that over the course of 50 years has changed the drumming community. This absolute maple hybrid drum kit will forever celebrate 50 years of Yamaha drumming excellence with it's specially made laser cut 50th anniversary badge

      Yamaha Absolute Maple Hybrid

      The High standards and quality control that yamaha have shown over the years is reflected in the Yamaha Absolute Maple Hybrid. Yamaha succeeded in designing drums that work at any dynamic level or any setting. The maple shells provide that classic tone and warmth which is very responsive to the drummers touch allowing for many different styles, while the Core ply of Wenge helps to project the whole sound across any environment allowing for superb live playing. As well as all this they added gold hook lugs and the special antique natural finish to further show that this drum kit is very special.

      Yamaha YESS III Mounts

      Amid the success of the YESS II tom mount, the YESS II mount is designed to further reduce acoustic dampening even further that its predecessor. This allows the shells to further resonate, generate higher sustain and higher volume.

      Bearing edge

      The bass drum and toms have different bearing edges in order to create a tonal balance between the whole kit. The snare/Toms all have a 45 degree bearing edge this allows the drum head to sit closer to the rim and lets to drums vibrate in a more natural way. The bass drum has a 30 degree bearing edge this bring out more low end tone from the bass drum and allows for a balanced sound across the entire drum kit.

      Gold Hook Lugs

      The Hook Lugs provide effortless head replacement that is both fast and easy, precision tuning and high tension tuning. The base of the hook lug has a small footprint to further increase the tone output of the bass drum. For the 50th anniversary the hook lugs have a refined gold finish.
