Description
The Yamaha RBT-1210SFG is a high-end 12" x 10" rack tom from the legendary Recording Custom series, designed for drummers who demand professional sound and standout looks.
? Finish & Style
-
Finish code: SFG, meaning Surf Green.
-
A bold, retro-inspired green lacquer finish that makes the drum visually striking on stage or in the studio.
-
Chrome hardware (lugs, hoops, mounts) contrasts beautifully with the bright green shell for a clean, premium look.
?️ Shell Construction
-
Material: 100% North American birch.
-
Shell thickness: 6-ply (~6 mm), providing powerful projection, bright tone, and focused attack.
-
Bearing edges: 30° edges with an R1.5 rounded radius, helping achieve crisp attack, strong fundamental note, and smooth tuning.
? Sound & Tone
-
Produces a bright, punchy, and focused sound, characteristic of the Recording Custom series.
-
The 12″ diameter delivers balanced warmth and fullness.
-
The 10″ depth gives extra body and roundness, making it great for melodic tom work and deeper fills.
-
Quick attack and controlled sustain make it ideal for recording and live performances where clarity is essential.
⚙️ Hardware & Mounting
-
Lugs: One-piece, weighted, high-tension lugs improve tuning stability and reduce unwanted shell resonance.
-
Hoops: 1.6 mm triple-flange steel hoops for an open yet controlled tone and easy rim shots.
-
Mount: Yamaha’s Y.E.S.S. (Yamaha Enhanced Sustain System) minimizes shell contact, allowing greater resonance and natural sustain.
