Yamaha Recording Custom Fusion 4-delat shellset Solid Black

Allmänt

More than 40 years ago, Yamaha's YD9000R drum kit was so popular amongst studio drummers that people began referring to it as 'Yamaha's Recording kit'. The YD9000R received a makeover in the seventies in collaboration with drum legend Steve Gadd, and the Yamaha Recording Custom Series was born. In 2016, Yamaha and Gadd joined forces again to develop the improved Recording drum kits even further. The result is available in three configurations and four different colours per configuration. This is the Fusion version in Solid Black.

Fusion Configuration

The rock configuration of this Recording Custom series kit includes relatively small 10 x 7 and 12 x 8-inch toms. Don't worry about them lacking any volume or depth, however, as the birch shells provide plenty of both. The floor tom is 16 x 15 inches and offers a wide tonal range. The 22 x 18-inch bass drum offers a warm, deep sound with enormous projection. Because the shells are made of birch, the overall pitch will be a little lower than you may expect.

Construction

In the past, shells like the ones in this kit would be made of Japanese birch, but these are made of American birch. Research has shown that the slow-growing American birch offers enhanced resonance. Each shell is made of six layers of laminated wood and features a bearing edge of 30 degrees for an optimal sound. The lugs have also been weighted and enlarged.
