Key Features
Optimised bearing edge. A clear sound at all dynamic levels. The Yamaha Absolute Maple Hybrid 22'' x 18'' Bass Drum uses the same shell technology as the legendary PHX kits. These shells feature a unique, sandwiched blend of maple and wenge, producing a punchy, deep tone that hits the sonic sweet spot for live and recording situations. Enhanced low - lower mid frequencies ensure a kick drum that cuts through with maximum impact. And, finished in Vintage Natural both inside and out - you have a classy presence and sound in any situation.
Use the Absolute Hybrid bass drum to expand your drumkit into a double-bass setup, as a replacement - or as a strong foundation for an entirely new kit. For perfect, punchy sound, it doesn't get much better than the Absolute Maple Hybrid Bass Drum.

An innovative blend of maple and wenge. An inner ply of wenge is sandwiched between maple plies, offering superior tonal balance and clear, warm tones. This special hybrid blend delivers a rich and clear tone at all dynamic levels, from subtle notes to big, loud and punchy.
The Absolute Maple Hybrid bass drum features a bearing edge unique in comparison to other Absolute Hybrid Maple drums. A 30°/R1.5 edge is used on the bass drum, offering enhanced low and mid frequencies for a more powerful sound to accompany the higher frequencies produced by the toms and snare. The combination of bearing edges results in a stunning tonal balance across the entire kit.
The Yamaha Absolute Maple Hybrid 22'' x 18'' Bass Drum features classic hook lugs, offering effortless head replacement, precision tuning, and even high-tension tuning. The lugs were designed to maximise tone output from the hybrid shells, featuring a small form factor for minimal interference.
