- In this video, we show you how to assemble a Yamaha Stage Custom Birch drum set from the box. From unboxing and identifying all of the component parts, to assembling, setting up and basic tuning - we walk you step by step through the process!
Thank you for this video. I got my son the same set of drums for Christmas and he was able to put it together himself with your video.
Hi Ann. Thank you - that's great to hear - I'm glad it was helpful. I hope that your son has a lot of fun learning the drums.
I bought the very first Stage Custom kit to hit San Diego in 1995 ish. The dealer told me each store only got one at first. Snagged it! Not near as nice as this new version. Gigged the heck out of it for 22 years. Bullet proof. Sold them to a relative. Cheers!
Very clear step by step instructions. I used this for the initial set-up, as well as for tweaking or troubleshooting further down the line. Thanks!
I dont know how to play Drums but I'm a music Teacher. There is drum set in school. I dont have any idea. But Guys this is the best video to assemble your drums. i watched other videos also but this one is best. And soon I'm gonna take Drum Class. If there would be subtitle on the screen it would be more better. Thank you 🙏💓! Love From Nepal 🇳🇵
Thank you so much! Just purchased the kit and came across your tutorial. I didn't even have to refer to the manual. Super easy guide & highly recommended! 👌💯
Hello there. I just want to take a moment and personally thank you for your teachings on how to set-up, tune, and learn how to play the drums. So far, I trust in your technique and will listen to your instructions. You seem to be a very patient and kind person. Tha's what good teachings are about in my book. Again sir, hats off to you and thank you very much. You're doing a fine job with your blessing.
Thank you so much Diane. Please let me know if I can help you with anything. All the best!
Unbelievably helpful, thanks guys!
Great! Thank you Lex :) Let us know if we can help you with anything. Have fun!
Thank you for this video - this is a wonderful assistance - the best video by far I found on how to assemble and tune the Yamaha Stage Custom.
Thank you for watching - have fun with your drumming!
Thank you so much! This was a life-saver! I really appreciate the time you put into this.
Thanks for watching, Dave! Have fun with your drums :)
This is great, thank you so much! This is sooo simple.
Thank you for watching! :)
Thank you for the instructions. Clear and well done
Awesome video! I might get a Yamaha Stage Custom drum set and drum hardware package in the future for live performances when I go on tour with my band The Sky’s A Limit. For the toms, I might use Remo Emperor Coated or Evans UV2’s, for the bass drum, maybe a Remo Powerstroke 3 or an Aquarian Response 2. For the matching snare drum, maybe I will use an Evans Heavyweight Dry. This is gonna be great for styles like metal, hard rock, jazz and R&B.
At 10 I built a trap kit out of dump materials. At 13 I bought a set and miracle upon miracle I figured it out in about 10 minutes. Never knew I was brilliant till just now, 58 years later.
Thank you for making this video. It is very helpful and you are very kind.
Explained very well, thank you.
Thank you!! This was so helpful and the only way I could have put together this kit on my own for my daughter's Christmas present :)
That makes me very happy. Thank you Laura - I hope she has a lot of fun!

Great video! I liked and subbed! I’ll share this channel!
Thank you for watching and sharing! :)
Great video! I would love to check out your other video highlighting drum ergonomics, how to setup your kit but i can't find the video of the title you mentioned. Is it still up on youtube? Link if possible, thanks a million. Keep up the great work.
I got my exact set and need to retune them all. My tom sounds way too high out of the box
What’s up you can also try new drum heads for set if your toms sound too high
Hello there! This tutorial is tremendously useful! Thank you a bunch! One question though regarding the tom holder. Is that the maximum depth tom holder can slide into the bass drum? It can't slide lower than that? At 11:47 it looks like it hit the lower end and it can't go further down into the bass drum anymore.
I like my toms to be as low as possible and as near as possible to the snare drum. In this video (and in a lot of other reviews I've seen), it seems like they are too high (for my taste) and I was wondering if they could be positioned a little lower.
Looking forward to your answer (or if there is anyone else who knows the answer, I'd really appreciate it ).
And once again, thanks a bunch :)
Hi there. Thank you for your comment, and thank you for watching! The tom post can definitely go lower into the drum - it depends on how low you want your toms. Shallow sized toms are best for the lowest playing position , because much is determined by the depth of the drum. You can see that at 12:44, there is about two inches between the 12 inch tom and the bass drum. If you got rid of that gap you could have a lower playing position. I prefer to play lower too. Thanks a lot!
For the floor Tom. Wich skin goes on the top ?
The one marked " UT " or the one marked "UC".?
THANKS
Question - right at 6:10 you placed the bass drum rim/hoop in place, but how do you know if the hoop needs to be flipped over ? It seems one edge of the hoop is rounded and one is flat, which side of the hoop goes against the head and which side goes out against the claw hooks? The instructions show a diagram that one way is better than the other way, but I can't tell a difference. Any assistance would be great !
Hi. Yes - great question.The flat side goes against the drum head, and the rounded side is designed for the claw hooks to fit nicely over the edge. Let me know if you have any other questions!
@@drumambition yes that is correct .
Great video I’m a novice😊
Do i Need to tune the toms? If Yes How to Tune them? Im having trouble tuning them..
Cool
First Thing Buy New Heads . Second you have a Pro Rig , with a few choice cymbals.
I would like to caution new bees 🐝. Be careful finger tightening the lug bolts by turning the bolt holding the threads with your fingers. The edges of them are sometimes pretty sharp and can slice your fingers. Like little paper cuts. If your hands and fingers are pretty hardened or calloused you may not experience any difficulties. But just be aware how tight you’re grasping them so you don’t cut yourself. 😇😇😇😍
Can i have the link for this drum set please
I am a filipino drummer 🇵🇭🥁.
The color of this drum is honey amber ? Or an other ? Thanks
Hi! Yes - this is a Honey Amber Stage Custom Birch - nice color!
+Drum Ambition ok thanks ! I bought it today 😃
Nice - this is a great sounding set! Have fun!
jonas villard Yes is it.
I want this 😢😢😢
How much today please ♥️
What is the tom sizes sir!😌
Hi! We used a Stage Custom Birch, with the tom sizes 10x7, 12x8, 14x13 (Floor tom). Thanks for watching!
@@drumambition Thank u brother❤😌
I made this drum kit in minecraft
Can u give me a estimation of dimensions and the weight of the box?
Sorry - we don't have that information. Yamaha have a Live Chat that should be able to answer your question. usa.yamaha.com/support/contacts/pac/
I thought you wanted to seat the head after you get the rim on.
Hi Adam. All of this is always a matter of personal preference but I prefer to place the rim on the drum afterwards. If there are any small adjustments to make afterwards, it's easier that way - for me at least. Thanks for your comments and for watching!
How much pressure we should give for seating the drumhead?
Not too much , but enough to gently push down and feel the drum head slightly bend inwards below your hands. Don't worry if you hear the plastic stretching - that is natural. Check the fit on the bearing edge, and if you have a good even fit, you are good to go!
Thanks
How much is that?
Thx for making it less than an hour long
Thanks for watching!
Who much cost this durm set
😀
Thanks for that - the Yamaha guy thought explaining what metals the hardware is made from rather than the actual setting up of components would be more useful. 🙄
How do I add a cowbell to this set using the Yamaha hardware?
Hi! You would need to buy a separate cowbell mounting bracket, and suspend from a cymbal stand. Most percussion brands like LP, Meinl, Gibraltar - all sell them. I'd go with the brand that makes your cowbell so that everything is compatible. I'd recommend against attaching it to the hi hat pull rod. They are a little heavy and can affect the pedal action.
Can I get a yamaha black drumdet
free please
I am getting a yamaha drum set my mom is will buy the drum set
Do you know the number for it
He skipped the part on how he stands up the base drum.
How much is oneHow much is one USA
"i havent got any muffling on the drums". *puts fingers on skins when hitting*
Haha. Busted! I think I meant to say no muffling in terms of moongel of tone rings, but yes, applying finger pressure will muffle the drum. I think I do that out of habit mostly when tuning. Good catch. Thanks for pointing it out.
My boyfriend ordered it for me because I can't support myself
Hi Monica. I'm happy it helped you. Thanks for watching :)
@@drumambition I'm excited to continue watching your videos to start learning to play drums
Me
I can play Highway to Hell. which Level am i in of drums?
You're a rockstar in our book. Thanks for watching our videos. Have fun!
Wrong. The way you set up a kit is this: angle the bass drum to the right a bit, put your toms in front of the snare drum, and put your ride cymbal over the bass drum. This is the way to ergonomically set up your kit, and it’s the best way to do it.
I did it too. This is what I used Woodglut designs for
Great video ruined with blaring music.
