Key Features
The Yamaha Tour Custom 22" 4pc Shell Pack, Licorice Satin is suited to drummers who need reliable performance for gigs, rehearsals, and recording. Built with 6-ply all-maple shells, it delivers a balanced sound with strong projection, clear attack, and the expressive response maple is known for. The satin lacquer finish highlights the natural maple grain inside and out, giving the kit a distinctive appearance without distracting from its practical design.
Yamaha's Y.E.S.S mounting system helps the toms resonate more freely, increasing sustain while maintaining stability. Inverse Dyna Hoops add focused attack and controlled overtones, making it easier to achieve a clear, defined sound across the kit. Absolute lugs with an internal locking mechanism help maintain tuning consistency, whether you're practising regularly or taking the kit on the road. Supplied with Yamaha Remo UT drumheads, the Tour Custom is ready for a wide range of musical applications straight out of the box.
Please Note: Snare, hardware, and cymbals not included.

The Tour Custom uses 6-ply, 5.6mm all-maple shells throughout the kit, delivering the warmth, projection, and sensitivity that many drummers look for in a versatile setup. Maple responds well across different dynamics, allowing subtle ghost notes, accents, and powerful backbeats to come through clearly. The 45-degree bearing edges help maximise contact between the shell and drumhead, supporting a lively response and consistent tuning. Whether you're playing smaller venues, larger stages, or recording sessions, the all-maple construction provides a dependable tonal foundation across a wide range of genres.
Yamaha's Enhanced Sustain System (Y.E.S.S.) is designed to allow the tom shells to vibrate more naturally. By reducing unnecessary contact between the mounting hardware and shell, the system helps preserve resonance and sustain without compromising stability. This means fuller notes, improved projection, and a more open sound from the mounted toms. If you regularly switch between live and studio settings, you'll appreciate how the system helps maintain a consistent character while allowing the natural voice of each drum to shine through.
The 2.3mm steel Inverse Dyna Hoops contribute to a controlled, articulate playing experience. Their design helps focus the drum's attack while keeping unwanted overtones in check, making tuning more straightforward and helping each drum sit clearly in a mix. Yamaha's Absolute lugs include an internal locking mechanism that helps maintain tuning stability over extended playing sessions. Together, these features create a kit that feels dependable and predictable, especially when regular transport and frequent performances are part of your routine.
The Licorice Satin finish combines visible maple grain with a refined satin lacquer treatment, creating a distinctive look that works well on stage and in the studio. Both the interior and exterior surfaces showcase the natural character of the maple shells, highlighting the craftsmanship behind the kit. A matching wood bass drum hoop complements the overall design, while the included TH945C tom holder provides secure mounting options. It's a thoughtful package that balances appearance, durability, and everyday usability for working drummers.
