The Tour Custom Drums
All Yamaha wood drums have one thing in common: Yamaha's craftsmen create every drum shell using their exclusive staggered
diagonal seam Air Seal System just as they have since 1967. Each 2 or 3-ply master ply is cut to very precise tolerance with
a diagonal cut on each end. The diagonal seam in the drum shell will not separate, eliminating the need to fill gaps in the
bearing edge with putty. These plies have glue applied and are then put into the mold by hand, one master ply at a time. The
craftsman then inserts an air bag into the mold and inflates it, clamping the shell with even pressure all around. This process
creates a drum shell that is strong, starts round, and stays round for many years.
Yamaha Tour Custom drum shells are
100% maple. The bass drums are 7-ply 7mm and have a warm, deep tone; the toms are 6-ply 6mm, with lots of warmth and resonance
and have a wide tuning range. The matching wood snare drum has body, yet plenty of high end and is very articulate at all
dynamic levels.
All Yamaha Tour Custom drums have 60-degree R2 bearing edges. This is something new for Yamaha on a
maple shell drum set. This bearing edge has a rounder profile so that there is more shell to head contact. This gives the
drums clarity in the low-end fundamental and added warmth.
Sturdy, yet simple in design; the bass drum spurs hold the
bass drum firmly in place even under heavy playing. They are height adjustable using a drum key, and there are steel spikes
that can be exposed when extra hold is needed. They fold up compactly for transport and are marked with angle indicators so
that you can set them up the same every time.
All Tour Custom toms and floor toms use the YESS (Yamaha Enhanced Sustain
System). The toms have a mount attached to the shell at the nodal point by two bolts. This system allows the drum shell to
vibrate freely for maximum sustain without restricting with where the placement of the drums. The floor tom brackets are small,
minimal contact mounts that are located at the nodal point. They hold the legs securely in place without restricting the vibration
of the shell.
Tour Custom drum sets include the TH-945 triple tom holder with Yamaha's tom ball clamp that gives you
360-degree rotation. The ball, made of a super-hard resin, is held in place by a single bolt making angle adjustments on the
toms quick and easy. The toms lock firmly in place at virtually any angle you want. This versatile tom holder lets you mount
any combination of up to three toms and/or cymbals by using either the standard or the long version of Yamaha's tom ball clamp
and CH model cymbal booms.
Cymbals not included.
