All user reviews for the Yamaha akira jimbo

Buy environ5 years ago, when testing of a cymbal (in the cabin of a famous Parisian store drumkit) I have tried several cymbals and every time I jou this fund, j 'I finally take the plunge and drop the 450 (the era).
EXTRAS: The look is bright, comfortable strapping maple rim shot and Co. (resistent the onslaught with little PForm)
Cons: sound in thought about taking a microphone stand, the strapping refuse your clips. The tie rods built, some cls does not. Do not play with sticks or other carbon under penalty of having to buy back straps.
SOUND: For me it is a fund that allows many places almost to transfer the tom so we like to play it.
I play also on PEARL Sensitone custom brass alloy 14x6 1 / 2, the CC of my junior kit (12 "). I admit I rarely use the Yamaha concert or RPET, the sound being quite Typically, the Pearl allows me melt a little more DIFFERENT styles. But ds that I get the chance I go with my yamaha kit and have a blast.
The report quality Price: $ 5 years ago (120 +)

With the experience .... I think I would not have other models of the era was during my tests. I asked the price to the seller once told myself (ok I take it a body p. ...).

I use this snare for 3 years, whether live or in studio once masters level sound, (and this is no small feat), the "bte" provided a power and a sound Plutt atypical.
A warm and powerful, for good middle room is ample over head! For more great scene prvoir not forget a tripod to the microphone because the circle does not accept oversize tongs microphone. (Little practical info!).
Personally I play in a rock band and the girl follows the road well, the sound is unusual but it's really a matter of taste, depth and 8-ply these offers him a warm, and the circle wooden vintage, allows incomparably shot a rhyme. For its sonority is a matter of taste ...
Furthermore it is once again a matter of taste but we love to look at or hates it!
Level qualitprix report, its still a signature so the price is lev rv I personally and I thank the friend eBay!
I would not change it for anything in the studio she produces a common gold, despite a snare arm provision, with good Eng is happiness, happiness is a look at it exeption of a snare drum. Thank you Akira!
