Marvellous Magma
As with all the kits in the Yamaha Live Custom Hybrid Oak range, this Magma Sunburst shell pack utilises a traditional Japanese finishing process to achieve its stunning looks.
Named Uzukuri, this unique finishing technique starts with the sanding of the soft areas of the wood grain before covering the whole shell in a thin layer of black paint.
Once the black paint has infiltrated the grain of the wood the shells are then sanded again to leave only the paint in the wood grain before a final finishing coat is applied.
Perfectly accentuating the natural beauty of the oak grain, this stunning process produces a drum kit with a striking aesthetic to match its stunning tone.
Dark Silver Hardware
All the shells of this Yamaha drum kit are adorned with dark silver hardware which perfectly complements the rich black grain of the shell finish.
The interior of the shells is also finished in black to further tie together the whole aesthetic of this beautiful drumkit.
All drums in this fusion shell pack are fitted with Yamahas exclusive Absolute Lugs to add a sleek and streamlined touch of sophistication to the kit appearance.
Oak / Phenolic Blend
The shells of the Yamaha Live Custom Hybrid kit are constructed from oak wood and phenolic acrylic in keeping with the hybrid builds of the flagship Yamaha PHX and Absolute Hybrid Maple drum series.
The 7 ply shells feature central sheets of dense phenolic surrounded by outer plies of oak to deliver a robust, durable drum that produces a superb range of tone.
While oak is characterised by its soft highs, strong mid-range and warm low-end to deliver big punch and quick decay, phenolic offers a warm response across all frequencies to ensure powerful attack and presence.
The balance of the two materials serves to produce a drum sound with an enhanced dynamic range capable of producing the cut and projection needed for live performance.
All of the shells are finished with 45 degree bearing edges which further aid the cutting attack and articulation of the stunning oak hybrid drums.
The combination of oak, phenolic and 45-degree edges works to deliver a kit sound packed with warm low-end power and quick, cutting articulation to ensure you have ultimate impact on stage.
Bass Enhancement Weight System
The bass drum of the Yamaha Live Custom Oak shell pack is fitted with a unique bass enhancement weight system which has been specifically designed to deliver a bass drum sound filled with punchy focus.
Featuring a design styled on the Yamaha Absolute lugs, these weights are studded to the interior of the bass drum at the lug points and work to attenuate low-mid frequencies.
The result is a bass drum that produces a wonderfully tight and well-focused tone to ensure powerful projection in live settings.
YESS III
The natural evolution from the popular YESS II tom mount, the new III model further helps the natural resonance of the toms.
Rather than drilling into the tom shells which negatively affects the drums resonance, the YES III mount attaches to the tom via the hardware to avoid contact with the shell.
This means the shell is allowed to vibrate more freely which helps to bring out more of the shells natural sustain and volume, ensuring a substantial, tone-filled tom sound.
The Yamaha Hybrid Oak drum kit also comes complete with the Yamaha TH945B tom holder to provide convenient and secure mounting of the rack toms from the bass drum.
Floor Tom Brackets
The 14 x 13 floor tom of this Yamaha Live Custom kit is fitted with compact tom brackets which feature wing bolts specifically designed to clamp the floor tom legs tightly without causing damage.
Delivering a hold you can rely on, these floor tom brackets have been created to help save time on stage and to deliver optimum decay control to ensure your floor tom sings with robust sustain.
Die-Cast Bass Hooks
The 20 bass drum of this Yamaha kit is fitted with die-cast hooks which have been designed to deliver noise free function through the use of insertion plates.
Providing a strong, secure and reliable hold of the bass drum hoop to ensure your kick drum stays in tune, the die-cast hooks are fitted with insertion plates to protect the hoop against the hooks as well as ensuring noise isolation between the hook and hoop.
The result is stable bass drum tuning, a protected bass drum hoop and noise free playing.
Dyna Hoops
Each of the toms in the Yamaha Hybrid Oak Rock drum kit are fitted with 2.3mm Dyna Hoops and Remo drumheads.
The thick steel of the Dyna Hoops provides a tighter sound and sharper response from the drums, ideal for live performance, while the Remo Clear Emperor batter heads and Remo Ambassador resonant heads deliver deep sound and superb durability.
The bass drum is fitted with a Remo P3 Ebony bass batter head and logo printed resonant head.
Summary

The combination of oak and phenolic ensures a kit sound filled with power and articulation to ensure you deliver optimum impact when playing live.
