Yamaha Concert Floor Bass Drum 18″x16″
Legs
The stable legs developed for the floor toms used with Yamaha drum sets have been customized to allow ample height adjustment range for standing performance with the FB-9000 series. The leg design has been refined in every detail to ensure that the beautiful resonance and tone of the drums are fully expressed.
Birch Ply Shells
The FB-9000 series uses the same birch ply shells as the CB-7000 concert bass drum series, delivering rich low-frequency harmonics as well as outstanding definition and clarity.
Shell Depth
Although 14” is a common depth for small bass drums, all FB-9000 series models have 16” deep shells for extra sonic depth and dimension.
Shells and hoops are constructed using Yamaha’s original Air Seal System. Air pressure is used to achieve uniform thickness and roundness that is as close as possible to perfect, for excellent tone and durability.
Dark Wood Finish
The FB-9000 series sports the same elegant dark wood finish as the CT-9000 and CT-8000 series concert toms and CB-9000, CB-8000, and CB-7000 series concert bass drums, extending the visual appeal of dark wood throughout the lineup.
Heads
The top heads are Yamaha REMO Powerstroke 3 Coated types, with an internal ring that effectively controls harmonics for well-defined tone. The bottom heads are Yamaha REMO Clear Ambassador types, further contributing to rich, musical tone.
Claw Hooks
The claw hooks feature the same traditional design that is highly regarded in marching bass drum models. The tops of the tuning bolts do not protrude above the top of the hoop, preventing contact while playing and allowing the player to concentrate more fully on the performance.
FT Brackets
The same type of clamping brackets used on high-end Yamaha drums (Absolute Hybrid Maple and Live Custom) are employed on the FB-9000 series. The legs are securely held between the clamping surfaces, effectively preventing slippage during the most dynamic performances.
