Detail 01
Staggered diagonal seam shell
Enables Yamaha’s thin-shell construction while helping the shell remain round.

Independent shopping perspective
Yamaha’s 14 x 11 Stage Custom Birch floor tom uses a thin, staggered-diagonal-seam shell. The Air Seal method is designed to produce a shell that is round and consistent in thickness, and low-mass lugs allow it to vibrate for tone and sustain. It is a floor tom rather than a mounted model, presented in cranberry red high-gloss lacquer.
