« Yamaha Stage Custom Standard »
Published on 02/13/03 at 15:00I bought this kit for £549 and Sabian Pro sonix scymbals, altogeter costing me a fair £750 from the Newcastle Drum Centre
The first time you open the box and you see this kit looking back at you, you know that you've bought a fantastic drum set. The look of the woodden matte shells is great and even though you might think that they will scartch easily, they dont! The hardware is fantastic, especially the Hi-Hit stand and the YESS mounts. The Birch for the outer layer, and 8-plys of Philippine Mahogany for the inner layers makes it sound like a pro kit!
I just love this kit to bits!
As you would expect from the Yamaha makers this is a well put together kit, the hardware is manufactured in Yamaha's own motorcycle factory and the shells are beautiful and durable..............it's just a fantastic drum kit!!!!!!!!!
The Stage Custom Standard is an affordable set with numerous professional features. From the beautiful matte Birch wood stains and split lugs to the professional hardware, this set is perfect for advanced beginners, semi-pros, and a 'around town' kit for pros. And if you have quite a budget of about £900, and you' feel that this is too 'cheap', well this kit cost £900 just over a year ago anyway! allowing you now to splash out on more symbols or a double bass pedal. This kit rules the £500-£800 price bracket!!!!!!!!! BUY THIS KIT
