Yamaha Tour Custom Drums

Jared Falk  /  UPDATED Aug 22, 2022

We’re so stoked to be partnering with Yamaha to give you the world premiere of their latest line of drums – the Yamaha Tour Customs!

This kit was made with an international focus in mind. Yamaha is known for their premium lines of drums (you know, those beautiful Absolute Hybrid Maple and Recording Customs you see us use ALL the time), but after traveling around the world and experiencing different musical cultures, they noticed that drummers who might not be able to afford those top lines need better gear.

Yamaha’s main goal in creating this new line was to make something that fits drummer’s financial situations, but also has that exceptional sound and quality Yamaha is best known for. You could call these drums the simplified version of their original Absolute series. They’re made of 100% maple and loaded with tone and attack. They also include their heavy 2.3mm inverse Dyna Hoops!

Dafnis Prieto just so happened to be coming through Drumeo when this kit arrived, and we couldn’t have thought of a better person to show these off. We’re just going to let these drums speak for themselves. You can click here to find out everything you need to know about the Yamaha Tour Customs.
