Yamaha releases a new drum kit – Yamaha Live Custom Hybrid Oak, which is to provide drummers with a new range of sound – a powerful attack and a huge amount of low tones. To reduce unnecessary frequencies and boost low tones, Yamaha has developed a special shell structure made of 7 layers of oak, and between them there is a phenolic layer. Other features that affect the sound of the drums are Tom holders YES III, which are supposed to cause the body to vibrate freely. All drums are equipped with dark chrome lugs and hoops, and Remo drumheads.

The Live Custom Hybrid series snare drums contain carbon steel springs. The hybrid shells, designed for this snare, allow for maximum protection and sensitivity, adding to that impressive cutting tone that Yamaha Oak Shells have been known for since the Oak Custom Series was released over 15 years ago.
The Live Cutom Hybrid series includes some great finishes such as: UZU Ice Sunburst, UZU Magma Sunburst, UZU Natural, UZU Earth Sunburst and UZU Charcoal Sunburst.
