Yamaha has taken oak to new levels of beauty, response, and projection with the Live Custom Hybrid Oak shell pack. Each 7-ply handcrafted shell in this series features an inner phenolic resin ply, chosen by drummers in blind trials, for a purer fundamental and enhanced dynamics across the kit. The Live Custom Hybrid Oak's outer oak plies have been treated to a Japanese uzukuri-inspired finishing technique for added luxury and elegance. Beyond its shells, the Live Custom Hybrid Oak features the very best of Yamaha's flagship hardware, including inner bass drum weights for heightened low-end response, single-post Absolute lugs for maximized shell integrity, and Yamaha's latest YESS III suspension system for a sweet, toneful tom sustain.

just a question ..did you put anything in the bass drum?(pillow etc) or is empty?
These drums are the TRUTH 🏆
Facts bro 💯
Nick D'Virgilio is also the truth
You're the truth, respect to you, Beatdown Brown.
Yamaha Oak Custom is one of the most underrated kits of all time
deffo. ive got one, natural finish, nothing quite like it.
There is something magic about that bass drum.
This is a kit that I aspire to own one day. Beautiful finish and the tone is just gorgeous. And great playing by Nick as always
Same here bro. The cool part about this kit is that I'm getting sponsored and I'm freaking excited.
This kick drum, the Tama starclassic rack and floor toms, and a Ludwig black beauty snare. Ultimate drum kit right there
The heads are Yamaha logo Remo USA Emperors on this kit (on the toms) they are labelled BE which stands for batter emperor 👍
I don't even need a new drumset in the slightest, but any time i see that it's Nick doing the demo, i click, and i sit and watch with amazement!
Always love to see Nick's reviews and his playing. I can't afford this type of yamaha yet but I had a great Yamaha kit way back in high school years ago. It was incredible. Thanks Nick. Stay safe and take care.
I never get tired of Nick's amazing drumming, love the part around 6:20. Nice kit, too.
That kick drum sounds so amazing
Great review by the master himself Nick D'Virgilio. Sensational playing as always. . .... Also the song he plays along to - so freaking awesome. Wish I could get the music. Really enjoyed this review.
Those things sound amazing and that finish is gorgeous. Another great review Nick!
I absolutely love this kit. It’s a dream. I got it March 2019 in this exact finish, without the snare because I instead custom ordered a big ol 18” floor tom.
*I forgot to mention initially*
I got great service from Sweetwater in my mission to add a custom order drum. Quick email responses and phone calls.
That 18" floor tom must've been expensive.
@@HadEnough745 Oh you know it...but I had to have it. It's always been a dream of mine and I was afraid to wait too long in fear of this finish to be discontinued or something. So I went for it. Was quite the long wait to get a custom order in...a whole 6 months! $850 of joy.
These drums are the real deal. Of all of the amazing kits Yamaha has produced (including the top-end PHX kit) these have the most presence and unique tone of them all. I sold my Maple Custom Absolutes after getting these because they are SO satisfying to play and all of the finishes are both stunning and unique. In fact, my DW Collector's Maple/ Mahogany kit seems kinda lame and boring compared to these!
Wow, that’s bold selling the Maple Custom Absolutes. I’ve been looking into a used set of MCA’s, but these Live Customs are on my radar as well. Do you still feel strongly about these over the MCA’s? Thanks
@@robertacosta3134 As good as the MCAs are/ were, the Live Custom hybrid oaks much better suit my average gig and are much less finicky to tune. There is a well documented issue with some of the MIJ Yamahas having tuning and resonance issues (seems to be especially prevelant with the 12" toms) that I suspect are related to the YESS and YESS II mounts. I've owned the Birch Customs, MCAs, and played on some 90s RCs and Live Customs and the hybrid oaks just have a little something special. Plus they look killer!
@@golferal You’re the man - thank you for that insight. I’ll give the live hybrid a serous look … Have a good one 🤝
😂
I’m sorry, but there is no greater drum sound than DW collectors, Maple mahogany kit, and they certainly do not come close judging by this video
Thanks Sweetwater! I love watching your videos especially watching drum kits videos because my dream is to have my own drumset, even I can't afford to buy one I'm hoping that someday I'll get one. God bless!
That finish is beautiful
Finally a decent review of the Live Custom Hybrid Oak
Find video from Drums Bonedo channel. Great sound test with natural sound of these drum kit
Sweetwater just trying to get some of those $1200 stimulus checks coming out in the next few weeks 😂
This finish is gorgeous, beautiful, amazing! It looks like it's alive. Not to mention the kit itself sounds great.
My dream kit. Love the floor tom, the tone is round and fat.
8:38 That's the stuff!
I don't have a favorite drum brand but I've always been a fan of the quality and consistency of Yamaha, however this takes it to a whole new level. I have a Stage Custom birch with a 20" kick drum that I use at college and it does the job very well. I think Yamaha has done a great job with bringing in kits such as this, the reintroduced Recording Custom and Tour Custom to expand the line. I do hope however that Yamaha brings back or introduces something a little more price friendly. This kit is significantly upgraded from the previous Live Custom but the price is much higher now. I think that there needs to be one or two more kits from Yamaha to go in between the Tour Custom (which is around $1200-$1300 for a 5 piece kit) and this version of the Live Custom Hybrid (which is around $3000 along with the Absolute Hybrid Maple) as the old Live Custom was under $2000 as well and a few more snare drum options to really get more of the recognition it needs. Plus, more attention needs to go to their Stage Custom, Rydeen and Manu Katche lines to get those back up. Unfortunately, the new hip stage custom is more expensive than the actual stage custom so that's a decent drawback, but I would love to see some more love go towards the rest of the lineup.
Right on point. Totally agree 100%
Yamaha please listen up!!!!
This combination of woods is great its natural sound. It would be disrespectful to use mutes with such a beautiful sound. greetings from Tamaulipas Mexico
That snare sounds awesome
And magnificient playing as always
I think you might have one of the best jobs in the world. Well deserved.
Reminds me of when Neil Peart went down to the Percussion Centre in Fort Wayne, and we tried out that set of Ludwig drums that were “Vibra-Fied”. They had a thin layer of fiberglass added to the inside of the shells giving them that punch heard nowhere else.
This kit (having a similar deal, just in between the plies) must sound unreal live and in the studio. Yamaha hit it out of the park with this one!
Great job as always Nick.Been awhile since we've had a new kit vid.These drums sound great&look amazing! Stay safe.Good health to you&your loved ones
Great video once again... Great presentation Nick. I don't think there's a drum kit Nick didn't love!
Sounds soooo good.
This finish and this drums are 😍
Do a review on the Yamaha stage custom
Have an Oak Custom. Just Love the Sound of Oak. I don't See me switching to a different Type of Wood with Future Kits.
Great playing and sounds! Awesome demo
So is the idea behind the Phenolic Resin that it gives it attack and projection? Can anyone who knows more about it expand?
Looks and sounds great!
amazing drums and wonderfull very talented drummer
Kit sounds amazing on nicks album
6:15 You like to play drums? I can't tell!! 😉 54 years old now myself, but right back to 12 years old when I sit behind a kit. Nothing like it or as much fun, IMHO.
Beautiful drums
I shouldn't be watching this video. This guy always makes me buy stuff.
Surprised Nick didn't talk about those weights inside the kick drum. Would like to hear his opinion whether if it's just a gimmick or not. Not that I think Yamaha would go for gimmicks. I don't think that's their style. But still.
Norsk?
@@josteinv.jordet257 Ja
@@BHBdrummer bra👍🇳🇴
It's no gimmick. The added weight adds so much more power. And the resin core I think adds weight to the toms. Check out the review from DCP/drumcenterportsmouth. The sound on that review is amazing.
How would u Compare the Yamaha live Hybrid to the Tama starclassic maple
These video ma are a two for one for me. I get to hear the kit and I get to steal some chops ideas from Nick!
5:12 ....I expected him to beat the heal out of those drums
Beautiful finish. Why only a 22"x18" bass drum? What's with this 18" deep bass drum being forced on everyone? Why not offer 14" & 16" deep bass drums?
16" deep bass drums are available and are offered in a 3-piece shell pack: 16"x22", 15"x16", & 8"x12".
The tone is amazing well it is mixed so who knows but sounds great
😁👍
sounds great
Stock heads?! Woah
Wish I could afford one
I wish there was mini gold flakes/glitter in that finish. That kit looks amazing.
This guy could make cardboard boxes sound great !
Cardboard boxes do sound great
for those wondering how much it’s 3.5k
Ouch
I always liked Yamaha but the selection and availability has always been lacking. You kinda just get stuck with the shell pack basic configuration with zero options to add on drums. DW and Pearl do a good job of having options to add on. But they’re the only ones really. Which is a shame because add ons need to be available as non special orders. Sometimes you need that 18” floor tom or 8”. Sometimes the 4 pc shell pack just isnt enough.
This live costom hybrid or Tama Starclassic W/B. Can’t decide.
I've played Tama for...going on 16 years now..I think they're absolutely incredible drums..it depends on what you're after...however that being said I would buy this in a heartbeat
i guess if bonham could play this drums with his style it would create a really powerful sound
Love these videos
Went he 4 piece configuration it means shell pack did not come with a snare. But they make a matching snare drum if you so choose. Eh?
Chama o Dave Weckl pra afinar! rs
What is that snare tho? Sounds amazing with that tuning
Okay you have my attention. 😨🤩
Actually, the stock heads are the knock off version of the Remo Emperors. So the heads are 2 ply by Remo U.T.
damn bro 5:30 is so sick.....
Is this a track off of Nick's new album or an open source drumless track? Would love to get hold of it. As always, nice job, NicK!
What mic's were used on the toms. Thank you in advance.
Hey, Pete. Thank you for reaching out! The mics used are Audio Technica Pro 35's:

These demos are always great. Nit-picky, but ... let each tom ring out the first time through. The only tom you really get to hear the resonance from is the floor tom (all the demos). Let them ALL sing one time, the first time through the tom demo.
YESS mount > YESS III mount
Yamaha and Tama lead the finishes game.
DW best finishes in the game
That bass drum.... Just yep, yep.....
How can I reach that bass drum sound guys? Any tips for a noob tuner?
5:18 LOL
Are they made in China or Japan?
China - where the virus came from.
Why don’t more rock drummers use this oak kit? Also why not Yamaha anymore. They were big in the 80s
What kind of sticks are those
Gostei
I hope I'm not the only one but, what is phenolic ? I never heard of this.
It's a resin. Also used for countertops and pool balls. It adds density to the shell.
Square meals and round sounds
Where I live they are €2,500 😭
@@Unknown16735 Thomann price € 2,698
Elestepariosiberiano drum kit hahaha
Dampening the bass drum is a no-no
Prefer oak rattan than maple, has a better punch.
Its amazing how much this kit sounds like my 30 year old Pearl Export Kit.
LOL! A lot of drummers are so gullible. Put the same heads on any other drum set and it'll sound virtually identical. They'll probably spend $4000 for this "resonant" kit, and then spend another $7 on a package of Moongels to make it less resonant.
@@gehbw But resonance of drum shell and resonance of drum head are different things. Moongels are good for muting unwanted long overtones from drum head.
@@ivanbajovic3476 Spend your money on good heads and cymbals. The shells have very little to do with it, unless they're in bad condition.
FYI: We came here to see Nick play.
Why snare wire on/off when kicking BD? BD is not tom. I really can't understand.
I guess it just makes a subtle difference in the sound, a tiny bit of rattling in the background with the wires on, even when playing the bass drum.
i wonder why drums cost so much money i mean this kit was £2,599 😐 ( im not a drummer) just wonder why they cost so much..
Bla Bla Bla
Great drums poor tuning. Did he tune the drums?
not a drummer.. just a fan of Nick's
Horn sound get diminished chord!!
Given current politics, I wonder if any drum companies with shift production from China to Taiwan.
Yamaha is a Japanese company, as is Tama (Hoshino Gakki). The political relationship between the US and China is not the same as Japan and China. So when you say, "current politics" you would need to be more specific as to which countries you are referring to. Both these manufactures have recently moved almost all of their manufacturing to China. Neither company is going to be moving anywhere anytime soon. And, regardless of where these drums are being made, both companies are continuing to make fantastic drums, if not better than ever.
