The combination of a quality wood shell, created using the exclusive Yamaha Air-Seal SystemTM, innovative hardware, sound-enhancing rims and lugs, special interior finishes and a meticulously painted exterior finish creates the signature Yamaha drum sound.
To celebrate, Yamaha is offering limited edition 30th anniversary sets. They feature high-quality lacquer finishes in exclusive sparkle colors, Vintage interior finish, special limited edition badge and display head, small-body chrome lugs, 2.3 mm steel triple flange rims, YESSTM mounts and Maple CustomTM shells. Pricing for sets and components is the same as Yamaha Maple Custom pricing.
