Hipgig

Two tom toms and the snare all fit snug into the two-piece bass drum which fits into a soft case. The hardware fits in the the drum case (HG15DC) that doubles as a throne. The entire set packs up compact for easy transport.

The Hipgig uses a combination of birch and mahogany to construct 7-ply shells. Perfectly round shells are achieved through Yamaha's original Air-Seal System that ensures a durable shell with excellent attack. The bass drum's two-piece structure is designed so as to retain its original tone. Four air holes are also incorporated in the bass drum shell provide increased attack, smooth play and tone.

With the exception of the hi-hat, all drums and cymbals can be attached to the bass drum. Three pipe clamps installed on the bass allow easy attachment of tom toms, snare drum and even two cymbal holders.Yamaha's System Drum pipe clamp and ball mount and clamp are reliable, easy to operate and extremely durable.

Lug design prevents tension lugs from becoming loose during play. Lugs are mounted at points where shell vibration is minimally reduced to maintain optimum shell tone.

The Floating Bass Drum System lifts and supports the beater side of the 16" bass drum allowing the beater to strike the drum in the center of the head.

The bass drum is equipped with Remo Renaissance Power Stroke 3 heads. With a full, low tone, you won't think you're playing a 16" bass drum. The 10" and 13" toms are small in diameter and use deep sounding Remo Pin Stripe Heads. We've designed the Hipgig for ultimate tone that lives up to the Yamaha name.
