Yamaha Electronic Drum Kits Guide
News FeedYamaha Electronic Drum Kits Guide
Yamaha electronic drum kits are the ideal option for someone starting down the road of drum mastery. There was a time when making the transition from pads to real acoustic drums was tricky, due to the difference in feel, rebound and sound.
That's no longer need to be a problem with the Yamaha DTX series offering utterly realistic head feel and incredibly realistic sounds, alongside a huge range of electronic, pitched and effected drum tones. The loss of acoustic noise suddenly isn't a problem when you've got a booming Bonham kit or fat, drum machine tones in your headphones.
