There is a reason the Yamaha Stage Custom has been the working drummer's kit since 1995. It is not hype. It is not marketing. It is the fact that every drummer who sits down behind one immediately understands what all birch shells actually feel like under your sticks. This kit is the real deal.

Birch is the tone wood that professional drummers keep coming back to. It hits with a focused, punchy attack that cuts through a loud band without getting muddy. The low end is tight and controlled. The mids are present and articulate. The highs are crisp without being harsh. Whether you are playing a sweaty club gig, tracking in a studio, or rehearsing with your band three nights a week, birch shells respond to every dynamic you throw at them. Tune them low for fat rock tones or crank them up for tight funk and jazz. These shells handle the full range beautifully.

The triple flange steel hoops give you tuning stability that stays locked in through a full set. Separate lugs let each shell resonate freely without anything choking the tone. Remo heads come standard so you are not immediately swapping out cheap heads before your first gig. Yamaha thought through every detail on this shell pack and it shows the moment you start playing.

The Matte Surf Green finish is stunning. Under stage lighting it has a depth and richness that photographs beautifully and turns heads in any room. This is not a finish you see on every kit at every gig. It is distinctive and it looks expensive because it is built to a professional standard.

This 5 piece shell pack includes everything you need to build your kit around. A 22 by 16 bass drum with serious low end authority. A 10 by 7 and 12 by 8 rack tom pair that sings with clear pitch definition and rich sustain. A 16 by 15 floor tom that sits deep and full in the mix. And a 14 by 5.5 snare that cracks on rim shots and whispers on ghost notes with equal precision. All mounting hardware is included.

Please note this is a shell pack only. Cymbals, stands, throne, and pedals are sold separately. If you need help putting together a complete setup our team at the New Albany showroom is happy to walk you through everything you need.
