The Yamaha Stage Custom Birch 5-Piece Drum Shell Set combines a full size 22-inch bass drum configuration with 100 percent birch shells for drummers who want a clear attack, controlled decay, and strong separation across the kit. This kit includes two rack toms, a floor tom, snare drum, bass drum, and a Yamaha TH945C tom holder.

Consistent Birch Shell Construction

Stage Custom Birch uses 6 ply birch shells across the set. Yamaha describes the birch construction as producing quick attack, short decay, and tight separation, characteristics that help each drum remain defined in live, rehearsal, and recording environments.

Y.E.S.S. Tom Mounting

The Yamaha Enhanced Sustain System minimizes mounting hardware contact with the tom shell so the drum can vibrate more freely. Yamaha pairs the system with its ball mount and clamp design, allowing the two rack toms to be positioned across a broad range of angles while maintaining stable support.

Reliable Performance

The kit uses 1.5 mm steel triple flange hoops on the toms and floor tom, wood bass drum hoops, and a hand lacquered finish. Absolute Lugs use an internal locking mechanism that helps resist tension bolt movement during playing, while die cast bass drum claw hooks with rubber inserts help reduce hardware noise.
