Lightweight 6-ply birch shell and 10-ply birch hoop
The 6300 Series drums feature a 6-ply birch shell, which provides a deep tone with ample resonance, powerful projection, and a punchy attack. Along with it is a sturdy 10-ply birch and mahogany hoop that keeps the drumhead snug and protects the outer rim of the shell. Both the shell and the hoop are constructed from the highest quality woods using Yamaha’s trademarked Air-Seal System. This results in a perfectly round drum with uniform thickness that delivers superior tone and unrivaled durability.
