Yamaha 6x6.5 8000 Concert Tom Sgl Hd: each
The 8000 Series concert tom is a single head concert tom. These toms are constructed using the Yamaha Air-Seal System which allows the drums to deliver a solid attack, a brilliant tone and a wide tuning range, from low to high register. These models feature 6-ply birch-ply shells, a YESS II Mounting System that increase resonance and maximizes dynamic range and sustain, a Darkwood stain finish, 1.6 mm triple-flanged hoops and REMO Pinstripe drumheads. Eight different sizes are available.
SIZES & SYSTEMS
Eight traditional sizes of single headed concert toms are offered in three traditional set-ups: CTS-6802 (6", 8", 10", 12" with two stands); CTS-0234 (10", 12", 13", 14", with two stands); CTS-3456 (13", 14", 15", 16", with two stands). Also sold in pairs (6 and 8; 10 and 12; 13 and 14; 15 and 16) with one stand, or as individual concert toms.
SIZE STRUCTURE
Yamaha adopted the same size structure as the flagship 9000 Series, based on increasing the shell depth by 1/2 an inch for every 1-inch increase in diameter. As a result, Yamaha designers successfully achieved the classical tone and lingering depth which is fundamentally different from that of other concert toms. The 8000 Series offers solid attack, brilliant tone, and a wide tuning range from high to low register, offering a higher level of expressiveness.
YESS II MOUNTING SYSTEM
Providing minimum mount-to-shell contact, the Yamaha Enhanced Sustain System (YESS) delivers increased resonance plus maximizes dynamic range and sustain. Mounts are attached at the drum's nodal point, where shell vibration is least effected.
AIR-SEAL SYSTEM SHELLS
The shells are produced utilizing Yamaha’s exclusive Air-Seal System. This process ensures that shells start round and stay round; an in-round shell tunes clearer and provides a pure fundamental tone.
TRIPLE-FLANGED STEEL RIMS 1.6mm
Triple-flanged hoops offer traditional sound, are easy to tune, and enhance low-end partials.
BIRCH-PLY SHELLS
Birch provides a clear attack with a warm, full sound.
