Air Seal System for Superior Shells
The use of our original Air Seal System is,
in part, responsible for the superior quality found in Yamaha drum shells.
Select woods are cut into plies, positioned with staggered diagonal seams,
and sealed together with evenly distributed air pressure. The resulting
shells are perfectly round and of uniform thickness delivering superior
tone quality and exceptional durability.
All Birch Shell
In production for over 25 years, our world
famous Recording Custom series has given our craftsmen a deep
understanding of the characteristics of birch. It is with that knowledge
that we have been able to extract a richer sound from these new drums. The
shells are manufactured using our exclusive Air Seal System. This
technique, while enhancing the characteristics of the wood, also ensures
that every drum shell is perfectly round, of uniform thickness, and
creates a stronger, more durable shell. Producing clear mid-and low-tones
with sharp, solid highs, the Absolute Birch Nouveau is sure to create a
new standard for birch shell sound.
Birch Shells and the Vintage Finish
The Vintage finish is a special synthetic
resin finish that is applied by hand on high-quality wind instruments.
While enhancing the tone of the beech shell, the Vintage finish also
provides a durable, waterproof finish that virtually eliminates the
influence of weather and humidity on the drum. Over the course of time,
the color of the shell will change to a deeper hue that you will surely
love.
Floating Bass Drum System
Height adjustment on the pedal side of the
18" bass drum is possible with the pipe post stabilizer. Use of this
system ensures that the beater makes contact at the center of the head.
The stabilizer fits into a pipe clamp on the underside of the drum that
allows quick and easy adjustment of the height. The post is equipped with
a memory clamp that ensures subsequent settings will be quick and precise
every time, while a pair of supports provides added stability.
Lugs
The revolutionary design of the quick-release
minimal-contact lug casings found on the Absolute Nouveau series are fixed
to the drum shell by snapping onto a post that is anchored at the nodal
point. This allows the drum to vibrate freely. They allow the heads to be
changed in less time and reduce the risk of losing tension rods or washers.
A special nylon insert prevents tension rods from becoming loose during
play.
Aluminum Die Cast Hoops
The aluminum die cast hoops give these drums
the benefit of accurate tuning that die cast hoops are known for but are
much lighter weight than zinc so they do not choke the drum like zinc die
cast hoops do. They allow the drum to open up much like a triple-flanged
hoop.
Bass Drum Spurs
A sturdy hexagonal design and fixed angle
position allow our spurs to withstand bass drum kicks. For the Absolute
Nouveau we made the spurs heavier and even stronger. Height adjustment and
the releasing and retracting of the pointed spur are made easily with a
drum key. Height adjustment and the releasing and retracting of the
pointed spur is made easy with a drum key.
Tom Toms and Floor Toms Equipped with YESS Mounts
Long found on our high-end drum kits our
original YESS (Yamaha Enhanced Sustain System) mounting system is on all
Absolute Beech Nouveau toms and floor toms. This rod clamp system allows
attachment of the drum to the tom holder without the need of a hole in the
drum shell for the rod to pass through. The YESS clamp is attached to the
shell at the nodal point with two bolts so as to allow the shell to
vibrate freely without degrading the shell's dynamic range and sustain.
The nodal point is the location on a shell with the least amount of
vibration allowing for the mount to have minimal affect to the resonance
of the shell.
Ball Clamp & Triple Tom Holder
This round ball clamp has long been a
fundamental part of Yamaha System Drums. Made of super-hard resin, the
ball is held firmly in place with a steel plate and large wing bolt. While
providing ease of operation, this system also delivers total freedom in
setting and superior stability.
