What defines expressive drums? The answer to the question is drums that give you the sound you need, whenever you need it. Tonal requirements vary among drummers, differ with dynamics, and change, from band to band, song to song, moment to moment. With the Absolute Hybrid Series drums, Yamaha has succeeded in addressing this, with a drum set that possesses an extraordinary degree of expressive power, allowing drummers to pursue a level of expression that perhaps they've not experience before in their other drums. These drums offer a wide dynamic range that allows them to respond accurately to each and every stroke, and follow changes in dynamics, nuance, and touch, letting you play what you want to play.Hybrid Maple ShellThe new Absolute Hybrid Series inherits the hybrid shell technology found on our flagship PHX Series. On Absolute Hybrid shells, the design consists of a core ply of wenge a very hard and heavy wood native to Africa, sandwiched between plies of maple, well known for its clear tone. This hybrid design delivers a drum tone that plays rich and clear across the full dynamic range, from pianissimo to fortissimo.Hook LugHook lugs offer quick and easy head replacement, precision tuning, and can readily handle high-tension tuning. Lug bases are designed with a small footprint to maximize tone output from the hybrid shell.Optimized Bearing EdgeThe bearing edge angle on the bass drum differs from the angle used on the tom and snare shells to optimize tonal balance in the drum set. A 45º/R1.5 edge is used on the snare and toms to a balanced tone; while a 30º/ R1.5 edge on the bass drum shell brings out more low-end tone for a deeper, more powerful sound.Vintage finish interiorShell interiors are coated with our exclusive "Vintage Natural" finish for enhanced tone and refined looks.3.0mm Aluminum Die-Cast HoopsAluminum die-cast hoops deliver a strong tight sound with an extraordinary attack and decay.SpecificationsDepth: 6"Diameter: 14"Hoop Model: Die-castHoop Material: AluminumHoop Thickness: 3.0mmLug Type: Hook LugShell Thickness: 6.2mmShell Material: Maple-Wenge-Maple HybridHead Top: Remo Coated AmbassadorHead Bottom: Remo Snare Ambassador
