Matte Polar White Finish:
The outer layer is coated in an elegant Matte Polar White lacquer. This smooth, satin-like finish highlights the grain patterns of the Burled Ash veneer underneath, giving the drum a modern and sophisticated look on stage and in the studio. -
Precision Bearing Edge:
A 30° bearing edge with a 1.5 mm radius is specifically designed to deliver a focused, articulate attack and controlled sustain, making it easier to achieve a punchy yet warm bass sound. -
Hardware Features:
Equipped with Yamaha’s innovative hook-lug system, which ensures even tuning and maximizes shell resonance. The wood bass drum hoops add warmth to the tone and maintain classic visual appeal.
