Description

The new Recording Custom snares are a welcome addition to this iconic series. Elevated by new design elements, Recording Custom Series drums produce a refined, focused sound with enhanced, rounded and deeper tone. All-birch, North American 6-ply shells with 30-degree bearing edges are complemented by the redesigned, high-tension lug weighted to enhance lower frequencies. The result is an easy-to-use and easy-to-tune drum that redefines Yamaha's classic signature sound that's suitable for any style of drumming. The tradition of Recording Custom continues.

Features

Revamped one-piece lug modern design retains the traditional essence of the Recording Custom. In order to maximize the attenuating properties of the birch wood, the one-piece lug design ensures optimum sustain of the core sound producing a crisp, articulate tone.

100% North American Birch Shell - The 6-ply, 6 mm 100% birch shells have a unique sonic characteristic that ensures each stroke speaks clearly. The 30-degree bearing edges deliver a sharp response and clear snare sensitivity across the dynamic range. The shells have a wide tuning range, respond well to different head choices and are easy to tune.

The heavy-duty Q-type strainer is robust and offers solid, stable and smooth operation along with adjustment and snare replacement.

The sturdy yet lightweight 1.6 mm triple-flange hoop provides open sound, a wide tuning window and great backbeat feel.
