⭐ Shell construction

• Size: 24 inches in diameter × 18 inches deep

• Shell composition: 11-ply hybrid shell

  • Outer and inner plies: North American maple (known for warmth and smooth overtones)

  • Middle plies: Kapur and jatoba woods (dense, providing projection and low-end power)

• This hybrid design enhances resonance, sustain, and dynamic range, offering a rich and punchy low end with excellent clarity.

? Finish: MGRBCS

• MGRBCS stands for Matte Garnet (or Cherry) to Black Sunburst.

• The finish starts with a deep garnet or dark cherry red in the center, subtly fading out to black at the edges.

• The matte (satin) surface highlights the natural wood grain and avoids the glare typical of glossy finishes, giving it a luxurious and modern visual appeal.

• Looks stunning on stage under lights or in close-up studio settings.

⚙️ Hardware & Features

• Hoops: Yamaha’s strong and resonant wood hoops or die-cast hoops (depending on setup), offering controlled attack and projection.

• Lugs: Hook lugs, designed to evenly distribute tension and enhance tuning stability while reducing shell contact.

• Mounting: Equipped with Yamaha’s advanced YESS-II shell mounting system, allowing free shell resonance and improved sustain.

• Spurs: Heavy-duty bass drum spurs keep the drum stable and minimize movement even under heavy playing.
