Yamaha Absolute Hybrid Maple "Rock" Shell Set

Absolute Hybrid Maple

Drums die u het geluid geven dat u nodig hebt, wanneer u het nodig hebt. De klankvereisten variëren per drummer, verschillen afhankelijk van de dynamiek en zijn anders van band tot band, van song tot song en van moment tot moment. Met de drums van de Absolute Hybrid-serie is Yamaha erin geslaagd om dit op te lossen, met een drumstel dat een buitengewone mate van expressieve kracht bezit, waardoor drummers een expressieniveau kunnen realiseren dat ze misschien nog niet eerder hebben beleefd met hun andere drums. Deze drums bieden een breed dynamisch bereik dat ze in staat stelt om nauwkeurig te reageren op elke aanslag en veranderingen in dynamiek, nuance en aanraking te volgen, zodat u kunt spelen wat u wilt spelen.

Hybrid Maple Shell

The new Absolute Hybrid Series inherits the hybrid shell technology found on our flagship PHX Series. On Absolute Hybrid shells, the design consists of a core ply of wenge a very hard and heavy wood native to Africa, sandwiched between plies of maple, well known for its clear tone. This hybrid design delivers a drum tone that plays rich and clear across the full dynamic range, from pianissimo to fortissimo.

Hook Lug

Hook lugs offer quick and easy head replacement, precision tuning, and can readily handle high-tension tuning. Lug bases are designed with a small footprint to maximize tone output from the hybrid shell.
 

YESS III

An evolutionary step up from our YESS IIm tom mount, the YESS III reduces acoustic dampening even further. Allowing the shell to vibrate more freely, the YESS III mount brings out more of the shell’s natural sustain and volume.
 

Low-Mass Tom Holder Base

The tom holder’s light weight and small footprint allows the bass drum shell to vibrate more freely.
 

Optimized Bearing Edge

The bearing edge angle on the bass drum differs from the angle used on the tom and snare shells to optimize tonal balance in the drum set.

A 45º/R1.5 edge is used on the snare and toms to a balanced tone; while a 30º/ R1.5 edge on the bass drum shell brings out more low-end tone for a deeper, more powerful sound.
 

Vent Hole

The vent hole plays an important role in performance, since it affects not only the sensation of hitting the drum (the impact) but also the initial sound, sustain and tone.

Through an exhaustive series of prototypes, YAMAHA has discovered the optimal number and vent hole position depending on the air capacity of each shell. Particularly, vent holes contribute to the enhancement of tone colors in midrange to low-frequency sounds, as well as the control of sustain.

Vintage finish interior

Shell interiors are coated with our exclusive "Vintage Natural" finish for enhanced tone and refined looks.

3.0mm Aluminum Die-Cast Hoops

Aluminum die-cast hoops deliver a strong tight sound with an extraordinary attack and decay.
