Yamaha Expands Tour Custom Drum Lineup with New Shell Options
Now with more options than ever to create your dream kit
BUENA PARK, Calif. (January 25, 2024) —
Today, Yamaha announced new products joining the Tour Custom drum lineup.
After receiving overwhelming requests to expand the Tour Custom line, we've done just that. Now, you can customize your drum set exactly how you want it by adding new bass drums, tom toms, and floor toms in various sizes!
"Probably the biggest request we received over the past few years was to extend the Tour Custom line." said Matt Rudin, product marketing manager, drums, Yamaha Corporation of America.
"Now, this warm sounding maple kit has even more to offer, with the addition of 18" bass drum and one-box "bop kit" configuration, and 8" rack tom. On top of this, where bass drums and some toms were only offered in one-box solutions previously, now every component is available "ala carte". Get ready to see a lot more of the Tour Custom in 2024!"
Infamously versatile, easy to tune, and highly durable, Tour Custom acoustic drums have met and exceeded the demands of working drummers and studio backline companies worldwide.
