Yamaha CTS-0234 8000 Series Concert Toms with Stands - Set of 4

Take Your Concert Percussion to the next Level with the Yamaha CTS-0234 8000 Series Concert Toms with Stands - Set of 4 - 10, 12, 13, and 14-Inches

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.

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 the Yamaha 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.

1.6 mm, Triple Flange Steel Rims

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.

WS-865A Stand

The concert tom systems come with the WS-865A heavy-duty stand. The stand features double braced legs for stability.

Darkwood Stain Finish

Fits well in concert settings.
