Yamaha Recording Custom 3-Piece Shell Pack With 22" Bass Drum - Pink Champagne

Known for the focused attack, punch and studio-ready articulation that helped define countless recordings, the Yamaha Recording Custom series remains one of the most respected birch drum platforms in modern drumming. This Guitar Center Exclusive Recording Custom 3-piece shell pack pairs that renowned Yamaha shell design with an exclusive Pink Champagne Sparkle finish, blending classic Recording Custom performance with bold custom-inspired style. Built from 6-ply birch shells with Yamaha’s signature inner dark brown paint, this streamlined configuration includes a 12x8" rack tom, 16x15" floor tom and 22x14" bass drum for focused response, controlled sustain and clear note definition across studio, rehearsal and live performance environments. Combined with Yamaha’s Y.E.S.S. mounting system and weighted high-tension one-piece lugs, the kit delivers the articulate feel and controlled resonance that have long defined the Recording Custom name.

6-Ply Birch Shells With Focused Attack and Clarity

The Recording Custom series uses 6-ply birch shells engineered to produce punchy attack, controlled sustain and articulate note separation throughout the kit. Birch construction naturally reduces excessive overtones and helps maintain clarity when the drums are played together, making the shells especially well suited for recording applications and controlled live performance settings. Yamaha’s 30-degree/R1.5 bearing edges support sharp response and broad tuning flexibility, allowing the shells to respond evenly across different tuning ranges and head combinations. Combined with Yamaha’s weighted high-tension one-piece lugs, the shell design delivers balanced resonance with the focused articulation that has made Recording Custom drums a longtime studio standard.

3-Piece Configuration Balances Punch and Focus

This shell pack combines a 12x8" rack tom with a 16x15" floor tom and 22x14" bass drum for a streamlined setup that covers a useful range while preserving the focused character of the Recording Custom series. The rack tom provides fast attack and clear note definition for articulate fills, while the floor tom extends the kit into deeper, fuller tones. Anchoring the configuration, the 22x14" bass drum combines low-end punch and projection with a shallower depth than the 22x18" configuration, contributing to the compact, responsive character of this 3-piece setup.

Y.E.S.S. Hardware System Supports Natural Resonance

Yamaha’s Y.E.S.S. mounting system minimizes shell contact to help preserve natural resonance and sustain throughout the kit. Weighted high-tension one-piece lugs maintain the traditional Recording Custom appearance while helping reduce unwanted shell noise and support consistent tuning stability. Triple-flange steel hoops provide open response and broad tuning flexibility, while the open-type floor tom brackets, convertible bass drum legs and die-cast bass drum hooks contribute stable positioning and practical setup adjustment. Finished in a lustrous Pink Champagne Sparkle, this Guitar Center Exclusive Recording Custom 3-piece shell pack combines Yamaha’s respected birch shell design with a distinctive visual presentation built for modern studio and stage performance.
