In close collaboration with drumming legend Steve Gadd, Yamaha has resurrected one of the most popular Professional Drum series and presents the New Recording Custom drums, a re-designed drum series that is ideal for professional use in Studio. Through the redesign, the New Recording Custom drums convince with a focused and round sound with lower frequencies, suitable for any DrumStyle and any type of music.
Why birch wood?
Birch is known and loved for its attack-rich and powerful sound. Its unique tonal character makes for a very precise and defined sound. Birch wood shells reduce unwanted frequencies, plus crosstalk to adjacent shells is minimal, ideal for studio applications.
For the past 3 years I've been meeting with the Research and Development guys at Yamaha with the aim of bringing the Recording Custom Series to date. I told Yamaha what I thought throughout the process, the result is that everything is a step up. They still feel like the Recording Custom, when you take them out or the box they don't feel new, they feel comfortable and I think that's good. The Bass Drum has a nice fat sound, the drum responds to different heads or it, and my goal was to have a simple snare Drum design that could respond to a wide range or tuning. I think we did a great job, the new Recording Customs sound great and I think you'll like them'.
