Anton Fig's Yamaha Signature Series Drums
(Yamaha | Posted 2002-05-13)

Whether Anton Fig is providing drum rolls and rim shots for David Letterman as a percussionist in the CBS Orchestra or in the studio recording with Bob Dylan, he gets the most out of his signature series drums. "I have to play a variety of styles on the Letterman show and my snare drum allows me to do this easily." he says. "I can crank it up or play it pretty loose and it sounds really different and good, but mostly I just play it at a medium tension which gives me a good crack with a lot of bottom. The drum also works incredibly well in the studio. All the engineers and producers flip over the drum - as well as any drummers that have used it!"
