Yamaha's Absolute Hybrid Maple Series is a testament to their dedication to sound quality, playability, and durability. In designing this series, Yamaha focused on creating drums that deliver exceptional tonal response across all dynamic levels, ensuring that every nuance of a drummer's performance is captured, from subtle whispers to powerful thunders.
About the Hybrid Maple-Wenge-Maple Shell:
The heart of the Absolute Hybrid Maple Series lies in its hybrid shell construction. This design draws inspiration from Yamaha's flagship PHX Series, incorporating the innovative combination of wenge and maple. The shell features a core ply of wenge, a dense and resonant wood from Africa, sandwiched between plies of maple, known for its clarity and sustain. The result is a drum shell that resonates with the warmth of maple while the wenge core enhances projection and sustain, offering a rich and balanced tone that excels in any musical setting.
