collapse expand iconDescription

As with the introduction of Stage Custom in 1995 Yamaha once again sets the standards of value and sound. The shell is a key factor in a drum's ability to "rumble," or resonate. Accordingly, the Stage Custom employs 100% birch - a classic in the realm of high-class drum kits. Moreover, with its six-ply structure the Stage Custom accurately conveys the vibrations produced at the impact surface, achieving performance that overwhelms anything in its class.

best ever

I have this floor(16x16) a 16x14 rack tom used as a floor, a 14x12 rack tom and a 24x17 bass. All of these drums have a deep, rich tone, with a bright powerful attack. The factory heads are useless, I slapped on Evans Hydraulic Glass; Man! these drums came alive with tone! the attack is brutal but smooth! with a quick decay and no overtones. The natural wood finish is a gorgeous high luster gloss that is WOW! to look at. These drums are what all drums aspire to be!! At any price! Buy them !!

Nice Drum, bad color match

Drum is good, but it does not match the rest of my Yamaha Natural kit, tom is much darker. Pretty disappointing. My stage custom is older and made in Indonesia, this floor tom is much newer and made in China. That's likely the reason for the color mismatch I'm guessing?

    3rd attempt at posting my review for some reason, GC keeps dropping it from the que. It does not match the rest of my Yamaha natural kit. Fine drum, good quality, color match is a bummer. It's much darker.

    In my younger years, I played guitar, not drums. We bought this floor tom to use as an end table that'll go great with our mid-century modern furniture. My review is based only on the construction and aesthetics of the drum (excellent), not the playability. #sweepstakes

    IN Q&A's I'm confused as to the drums' size- can you say what size heads this drum would take? Also, does the drum come with or without legs?

    I do not see an 18x16 floor tom in Raven Black. This would complete my rig. I see all the other colors but not RB. Please assist.
