Yamaha Stage Custom Advantage Nouveau Overview Air Seal System 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. We use this method to make every Yamaha drum shell, from entry level to professional series drums. FRC Nouveau Lug We took our revolutionary Nouveau lug and crafted it from a proprietary Fiber Reinforced Composite to create a drum that's lighter in weight and more resonant. The lug hooks onto a post that is mounted to the shell at the nodal point so there is no vibration of the shell dampened at the tuning points. The Nouveau lug also allows you to change heads in about half the time since the tension rods don't have to be removed to remove the head. Mahogany/Falkata Shells with Birch or Oak Outer ply Stage Custom Advantage Nouveau shells are constructed of an outer ply of Birch (gloss finishes) or Oak (matte finishes), six plies of Philippine Mahogany, and an inner ply of Falkata. The shells produce a warm tone with a low fundamental with a good balance of attack and sustain. Mounted 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 Stage Custom Advantage 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. Universal size toms Mounted toms in 10", 12", and 13" are "Universal" size, one inch shallower than power toms that are used in the Stage Custom Advantage series. These shallower depth toms are more resonant and give you even great flexibility in how you set up. This is especially advantageous for younger players that need to set their toms up in a lower position. Bass Drum Spurs Sturdy, yet simple in design, the spurs hold the bass drum in place under even heavy playing. They are height adjustable with a drum key and for more stability there are spikes that can be exposed. The spurs fold up and out of the way for transport, but are marked with angle indicators so that you can set them at the same angle every time. 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. The triple tom holder accommodates two toms as well as a cymbal holder to provide a wide variety of set up possibilities. Matching Wood Snare Drums To complete the high-end look of the kits, the SCAN series kits include a matching 14x5 " snare drum. This size is the most versatile, allowing you to fit into any musical situation. You can tune it up high and it will cut thru loud music, or tune it down for a wet, funky sound.
