Description

The Yamaha 22″ Recording Custom 4-Piece Shell Pack – Real Wood is built around 6-ply North American birch shells with dark-finished interiors, paired with R1.5 30-degree bearing edges. The North American birch construction keeps each stroke sharply defined, while weighted high-tension lugs trim stray overtones without choking the drum. The rounded R1.5 30-degree edges place more head against the shell than a sharp modern edge, adding depth while preserving a clear response. This four-piece layout keeps the studio setup clean: two shallow rack toms, a deep 16″ floor tom and a 22″ x 16″ bass drum. The larger pitch gap into the floor tom gives fills a dramatic final step, while the shallower bass drum stays fast and controlled.

Shell Pack Configuration:
  • 22″ x 16″ bass drum
  • 10″ x 7″ rack tom
  • 12″ x 8″ rack tom
  • 16″ x 15″ floor tom
Shell Construction and Bearing Edges:
  • 6-ply North American birch shells with dark-finished interiors
  • R1.5 30-degree bearing edges
  • Weighted high-tension lugs reinforce the low-frequency centre and reduce unwanted shell noise without added damping
Mounting, Hardware and Drumheads:
  • Yamaha Y.E.S.S. mounts on both rack toms
  • Two Yamaha tom clamps for mounting the rack toms from cymbal stands
  • Weighted one-piece high-tension lugs tuned to control stray overtones and reinforce the shell fundamental
  • 1.6 mm triple-flanged steel tom hoops and matching birch bass drum hoops
  • Remo USA coated Ambassador tom batters with clear Ambassador resonant heads and a coated Powerstroke 3 bass drum batter
Sound, Tuning and Gigging:
  • The 10″ and 12″ rack toms record with a clean fundamental and tightly controlled decay
  • The 16″ x 15″ floor tom brings a deep, rounded note without filling the microphones with unwanted wash
  • The 22″ x 16″ bass drum has a fat centre, clear attack and enough sustain to sound full without heavy damping
  • The 30-degree edge reacts noticeably to head choice and remains comfortable across a wide tuning range
  • A focused studio and touring setup for experienced session players, recording drummers and anyone who wants precise separation between close microphones
Finish:
  • Real Wood high-gloss clear lacquer over visible birch grain, paired with chrome hardware
