Yamaha YD Series Drum Kits Review

History:

Purchase: Center Stage Music. Kingston, Ontario Canada

Pros: The amazing quality. This has to be the best entry level set. I played on my friends because I've already got a Pearl Export series. The YD comes in two different sizes. 10', 12' mounted toms, and a 14" floor tom. The bass is 20" X 17" deep creating a beautiful low end bass drum quite similiar to the maple custom. The shells are 9 ply mahogany. Or you can get the standard 12", 13" mounted toms and a 16" floor tom as well as a 22" X 17" bass drum. These sets come with a 14" X 5.5" matching colour snare drum with mahogany shells. I found the snare to be a mid-range snare with some ring. The toms can be either high-end or low-end, whatever you prefer. Like I said the best entry level set out there.



Cons: Nothing

YD Series Drum Kits Quality: The quality is amazing, very sturdy hardware. Has the same hardware as the professional series offered by Yamaha. All Yamaha hardware is made in there motorcycle manufacturing plant.

Yamaha Summary: If you are a beginner, intermediate, semi-pro, or pro. GET THEM. If you do music video with your band, a lot of gigs and you don't want to wreck your primary beautiful kit then take this on the road or to shoot a video, and to have fun. Or maybe buy for your son!
