These aren't generic beginner shells—they're built to Yamaha's exacting standards with the same care as their professional lines.

Eye-Catching Burgundy Glitter Finish
The stunning Burgundy Glitter wrapped finish combines deep red tones with sparkling metallic flake, creating a look that commands attention on any stage.

Chrome hardware provides classic contrast that completes the professional aesthetic. This is a kit that looks as good as it sounds.

The Rydeen's balanced voice adapts to any genre. The 22" bass drum provides the punch needed for rock and pop, while the 16" floor tom delivers depth for jazz and R&B.
