PHXB-2216MMB

The Yamaha PHXB-2216MMB is a 22″ x 16″ bass drum from Yamaha’s top-tier PHX (Phoenix) series, designed for professional drummers who want uncompromising sound and build quality.

? Hybrid Shell Construction

It uses Yamaha’s 11-ply hybrid shell, featuring:

• A hard Jatoba core for deep, powerful low-end

• Kapur plies on each side for warm, strong midrange

• Inner and outer Maple plies for brightness and clarity

This design produces a wide dynamic range and rich tonal character that is both deep and highly articulate.

✂️ Special Bearing Edge

A 30-degree bearing edge with an R1.5 profile is specially designed for bass drums, resulting in a focused, punchy attack with controlled sustain — perfect for modern and versatile applications.

? Undrilled Shell for Maximum Resonance

This is an “R” version shell, meaning it is undrilled (no tom holder mount holes). This allows the shell to resonate more freely and produce a purer, more open sound.

⚙️ Premium Hardware

• Hook lugs for smooth, precise, and stable tuning while minimizing shell contact

• 3 mm aluminum die-cast hoops to provide extra projection and consistent tuning
