A Great-sounding Yamaha Birch Kit

This Yamaha Stage Custom Birch 5-piece shell pack is an outstanding value, whether you're a beginner or a seasoned player. Complete with a pair of rack toms, a floor tom, snare drum, and bass drum, this Custom Birch kit will imbue your drumming with the same low fundamental and warm tone that has become a trademark of Yamaha's birch drum designs over the past three decades. Drummers at Sweetwater dig Yamaha's low-mass lugs because of the way that they allow the shells to vibrate, resulting in remarkable tone and sustain. Finished in a beautiful high-gloss lacquer, this Yamaha Stage Custom Birch 5-piece shell pack embodies value, quality, and craftsmanship.

100% birch shells

Whenever a beginner/intermediate-stage shell pack boasts all-birch shells, it immediately has our attention! Constructed with six plies of 100% birch, these tom and snare shells embody that iconic Yamaha birch tone that’s highlighted by a punchy warmth and low, hearty, impactful presence. The same can be said for the 7-ply, 7mm bass drum. Each of the shells in this pack endures Yamaha’s Air Seal System of formation, ensuring it will stand up to the rigors of constant practice and gigging transport with tremendous integrity. Trimmed with 45-degree bearing edges, these shells optimize the vibration of each drumhead to aid in proper tonal definition and resonance for an all-around knockout sound.

Shells only. Cymbals, stands, and additional hardware not included.

Hardworking hardware

Shells aren’t the only factor that the Stage Custom Birch refuses to skimp on — it’s also adorned with some fabulously functional hardware. The 1.6mm steel triple-flanged hoops and low-mass Absolute-style lugs provide not only a more round and resonant tone but also extra weight relief for lightweight transport while gigging. Die-cast bass drum claw hooks mean sturdy, rattle-free kicks with authority and peace-of-mind playability free from undependable components. And with the YESS tom mounting system holding your rack shells in place via a singular mounting point, you’ll enjoy impressive resonance and convenient adjustability everywhere you play.

Come one, come all!

You don’t have to spend a fortune to rock out with a tone and style that’ll keep up with the best of them. For beginners just starting, building off a kit like the Yamaha Stage Custom Birch instills the quality sonic and construction characteristics of the craft at an early stage of the drumming journey, establishing an appreciation for the beauty of the instrument and the process. That appreciation is invaluable at any stage, meaning intermediate players will get as much out of the Stage Custom Birch as novices. Plus, with such fine build quality, taking to small stages and rocking out at local gigs are this kit’s bread and butter.

Shells only. Cymbals, stands, and additional hardware not included.

Budget drum set on steroids
I have a small sound production co. and use these drums for the bands to use and they sound great- I did replace all the skins and retune the drums and did get some ahead storage bags- I already had the hardware from my pervious set so I was already set. Most of the bands will ask for the DW drums but the Yamahas are on most of the riders that I receive and have used them on the past and let me tell you... you can not go wrong with this set- The price is right and they sound great!

Stunningly Beautiful…and sound great to boot!
This is my second set of Stage Customs. For the money, they can't be beat. I have to say that the finish on these drums is a sight to behold. They are absolutely gorgeous. Pictures do not do them justice. Ok…now to the meat and potatoes: I ordered the drums on a Tuesday, they were delivered on Friday. Sweetwater is a joy to deal with! The drums came well packaged, and required some time to put together and to tune. They sound good out of the box with the Remo UT/UC heads, but will sound much better with a better quality head. Yamaha's hardware is unequaled, even at this price point. These will serve me well for years to come.
Beautiful great sounding drums.
No complaints. Great drums for my long time coming first kit. Shout out to Yamaha and Sweetwater!!

Go For It
Yamaha is the brand that lingered on my mind while I played with others. That meant, locked in, it was always my first choice all along; I was just hesitant to try. Luckily, I did, and with this GORGEOUS finish. If you can't stop looking at the drummer, the same way, I felt about this finish, too. An A+, definitely, and go for it! Whether you're a beginner or pro (I'm a pro in skill), it's ONE OF THOSE INSTRUMENTS that inspires you and motivates you to DO WHAT YOU LOVE. THIS, NO ROOM FOR REGRET.

The Best Bang For Your Buck!
Yamaha Stage Custom drums offer the best value I have ever seen in drums! The Yamaha Stage Custom Birch drum set is a true workhorse that is perfect for many musical applications- for those who are just learning to play or for for drum students these drums are so easy to make sound good, and they stay in tune! It is more fun to play when the drums sound good right out of the box! But if you are a working musician you want a dependable gigging set that sounds great in any venue then these Stage Customs are the perfect choice for you. Stage Customs give you that warm studio sound Yamaha is famous for, at a very economical price, what a value! The 100% Birch shells are easy to tune, and the beautiful lacquer finish lets the wood grain show through and makes your drum set look so unique. And the legendary Yamaha hardware is rock solid! I wanted to get a "real" drum set after many years of playing cheap "entry-level" drum sets, and the great price of these drums made it easy for me to finally get a professional level kit without breaking the bank! I am super happy with these drums, I have played several gigs with them since I got them, and people were coming up to me and telling me how great they look and sound. I love these drums and I am proud to be a member of the Yamaha "family".
Music background: My favorite drummers growing up were John Bonham, Phil Rudd, Tommy Ramone, and Philthy Animal Taylor... then Tommy Lee and Lars Ulrich. So of course my favorite bands were and still are Motorhead, AC/DC, Ramones, but I love hard rock, punk rock, heavy roc
