Yamaha raises the bar once again with the new Stage Custom Nouveau. Its 8-ply Birch/Philippine Mahogany/Fakalta shells, YESS tom mounts, wood snare and Nouveau split lugs make for a kit that sounds much more expensive that it really is.

The lugs incorporate a floating design that eliminates contact between the lug casing and shell body to let the shell vibrate freely and reduce damping. Its design also makes for quick and easy head changes since you no longer need to completely remove the tuning bolts from the lugs.

The Stage Custom Nouveau kits also include Yamaha's original YESS clamp system, which allows the shell to vibrate freely without degrading its dynamic range and sustain.

Includes 17x22" wood hoop bass drum, 9x12" & 10x13" toms, 14x16" floor tom, 14x5-1/2" snare, Remo heads and 2 cymbal stands. Cymbals not included.

Equipped with YESS

Long found on our high-end drum kits like the Maple Custom, etc. our original YESS (Yamaha Enhanced Sustain System) mounting system is now standard equipment on the Stage Custom Drums. This rod clamp system allows attachment of the drum to the tom holder without the need of a hole in the drum shell for the rod to pass through.

The YESS clamp is attached to the shell with two bolts so as to allow the shell's dynamic range and sustain. This system is also used on our floor tom brackets to deliver maximum sustain.

The Stage Custom Advantage utilizes the same Triple Tom Holder as found on our higher cost Maple Custom drums, etc.… read more This holder accommodates two toms as well as a cymbal holder to provide a wide variety of setups possibilities. Just as in the utilization of our YESS system, the addition of these two features delivers added quality and value to the Stage Custom Advantage.

Bass Drum Spurs

A sturdy hexagonal design and fixed angle position allow the spurs to withstand and absorb the tremendous impact of repeated bass drum kicks. Height adjustment is made easily with a drum key. read less
