Yamaha SBF‑1816RB — Stage Custom Birch Floor Tom

Description

The SBF‑1816RB is an 18″ × 16″ floor tom in Yamaha’s Stage Custom Birch series, finished in Raven Black. It’s built with a 6‑ply, 100% birch shell, giving it a punchy attack and a focused, articulate tone. This drum uses Yamaha’s nodal-point mounting (Y.E.S.S.) to minimize shell contact and maximize resonance and sustain. The hardware is solid and designed to support stability while keeping the shell free to vibrate.
