Yamaha Rock Tour Drum Sets - An Introduction

[ntfd125]

These drums sound a lot better with good heads and better tuning (more than 5 minutes). I use aquarian response 2's for both batter and reso and they sound great. I'll tell you I wasn't expecting much when I bought them but after spending about 2 hours tuning I was amazed at what I ended up with. When you find the sweet spot you'll get a nice fat sound. Please take the time to tune without tape and junk.

this or gretsch catalina rock?

Tuned that high, the toms sound like (some of) Alex Van Halen's toms on 1984

[zzzxtreme]

suitable for death / trash metal ?

Dude, I play an old Yamaha Stage Custom Advantage, and am thinking about upgrading to this, but I never fuckin' knew that the boom stands could do that lol.

The Yamaha Logo in the opening is not correct. The logo seems to be the Yamaha Motor Corporation's Logo!

@songuan1174 No, it's correct, it's the same as on the front skin of the bass drum...

The toms sounds lousy. The kick and snare sound good though.

@RadioJack i agree, the toms kinda sound like a toy

[VitRadek]

@ampz37 The heads couse that. They're Pinstripes on top and Diplomats on the bottom... which I think is a horrible thing :D

@RadioJack the main reason it sounds bad is the room there in.
