    Description

    Up for sale is this vintage Yamaha Rock Tour Custom bass drum. It's 22"x16". I bought this new in 1994. Made in Japan and the highest quality. The shell is birch with one inner ply of mahogany. I believe these are essentially Recording Custom drums with the added mahogany ply to increase volume. It was re-wrapped in about 2004, and has been covered until this week. I got all of the residue from the wrap off of the shell, and I think it's looks great. You might be able to polish it up another 5% or so and remove some of the blemishes. I believe the finish was called "Stage White", and it's off white (or antique white). Not a bright snow white. I sold this drum to a friend in about 1997. He did some damage before I got it back a few years later. The majority of the damage is on the player's right of the top of the drum. It looks like rash from a hanging tom, but there wouldn't have been one on that side. Who knows. See pic 4 for the worst of it. The hoops are in rough shape, but structurally functioning. Smooth white Ambassador with Holz port on the front, and Remo PS3 batter side are both in great shape. One bent tension rod, but that also works fine. Spurs are great, all original screws and bolts accounted for and tightened. This is far from a pristine looking drum, but it's solid and sounds amazing. US bidders only please, and feel free to ask if you have any questions. I also have a 12"x10" tom and 15"x13" tom for sale. Thanks for looking!
