Hi I have a Yamaha 9000 series drum set ( 22, 12, 13, 16) in a natural wood finish.
I got it in 1979 or maybe 1980. It was made in Japan. I believe the shells are birch. I absolutely love these drums , and they have served me very well. They definitely have stood test of time and I plan on keeping him as long as I’m alive!
The kit looks exactly like this:
I’d like to add a 10 inch Tom and I supposed be probably close to impossible to find an original 9000 series 10 inch Tom.
Does anyone know if you Yamaha make something comparable now?
Any thoughts? Thanks!
