When Yamaha constructs an electronic drum set we embrace technology from our digital musical instrument divisions and combine it with know-how from our esteemed acoustic drum makers. Unbelievably, Yamaha is the only acoustic drum company that makes electronic drums, providing a unique understanding of today's drummer's needs.

As part of the extensive design process, we call upon our roster of top drum artists to help shape, tweak and fine-tune the instrument. The result is a set with a brain incorporating sheer electronic wizadry and a soul that embodies living and breathing artist input worldwide. If you're serious about your music... its time you get acquainted with e-drums made by Acoustic and Digital innovators.
