How To Assemble and Set Up A Drum Set - A Video Guide 

Thank you for this video. I got my son the same set of drums for Christmas and he was able to put it together himself with your video.

I bought the very first Stage Custom kit to hit San Diego in 1995 ish. The dealer told me each store only got one at first. Snagged it! Not near as nice as this new version. Gigged the heck out of it for 22 years. Bullet proof. Sold them to a relative. Cheers!

Very clear step by step instructions. I used this for the initial set-up, as well as for tweaking or troubleshooting further down the line. Thanks!

Hello there. I just want to take a moment and personally thank you for your teachings on how to set-up, tune, and learn how to play the drums. So far, I trust in your technique and will listen to your instructions. You seem to be a very patient and kind person. Tha's what good teachings are about in my book. Again sir, hats off to you and thank you very much. You're doing a fine job with your blessing.

Thank you so much! Just purchased the kit and came across your tutorial. I didn't even have to refer to the manual. Super easy guide & highly recommended! 👌💯

Thank you for this video - this is a wonderful assistance - the best video by far I found on how to assemble and tune the Yamaha Stage Custom.

Thank you so much! This was a life-saver! I really appreciate the time you put into this.

Thank you for the instructions. Clear and well done

I really like this drum both in the sound and in the color

Thank you for making this video. It is very helpful and you are very kind.

Thank you!! This was so helpful and the only way I could have put together this kit on my own for my daughter's Christmas present :)

Unbelievably helpful, thanks guys!

This is great, thank you so much! This is sooo simple.

Explained very well, thank you.

Awesome video! I might get a Yamaha Stage Custom drum set and drum hardware package in the future for live performances when I go on tour with my band The Sky’s A Limit. For the toms, I might use Remo Emperor Coated or Evans UV2’s, for the bass drum, maybe a Remo Powerstroke 3 or an Aquarian Response 2. For the matching snare drum, maybe I will use an Evans Heavyweight Dry. This is gonna be great for styles like metal, hard rock, jazz and R&B.

thank you so much this helped alot.

Great video! I would love to check out your other video highlighting drum ergonomics, how to setup your kit but i can't find the video of the title you mentioned. Is it still up on youtube? Link if possible, thanks a million. Keep up the great work.

Thanks, I found this video very helpful!

this is really helpful thank you

Muy bien explicado :)

At 10 I built a trap kit out of dump materials. At 13 I bought a set and miracle upon miracle I figured it out in about 10 minutes. Never knew I was brilliant till just now, 58 years later.

Great video! I liked and subbed! I’ll share this channel!

Very helpful!!

This is an amazing video

For the floor Tom. Wich skin goes on the top ? The one marked " UT " or the one marked "UC".? THANKS

Earned a sub.+like! Thank you!

Do i Need to tune the toms? If Yes How to Tune them? Im having trouble tuning them..

werry good video thanks for video and tutoril #bestdrumsetuptotorial

Yamaha are the best drums. Period!!!

Hello there! This tutorial is tremendously useful! Thank you a bunch! One question though regarding the tom holder. Is that the maximum depth tom holder can slide into the bass drum? It can't slide lower than that? At 11:47 it looks like it hit the lower end and it can't go further down into the bass drum anymore. I like my toms to be as low as possible and as near as possible to the snare drum. In this video (and in a lot of other reviews I've seen), it seems like they are too high (for my taste) and I was wondering if they could be positioned a little lower. Looking forward to your answer (or if there is anyone else who knows the answer, I'd really appreciate it ). And once again, thanks a bunch :)

I got my exact set and need to retune them all. My tom sounds way too high out of the box

Question - right at 6:10 you placed the bass drum rim/hoop in place, but how do you know if the hoop needs to be flipped over ? It seems one edge of the hoop is rounded and one is flat, which side of the hoop goes against the head and which side goes out against the claw hooks? The instructions show a diagram that one way is better than the other way, but I can't tell a difference. Any assistance would be great !

Can i have the link for this drum set please

Cool

Great video I’m a novice😊

First Thing Buy New Heads . Second you have a Pro Rig , with a few choice cymbals.

I would like to caution new bees 🐝. Be careful finger tightening the lug bolts by turning the bolt holding the threads with your fingers. The edges of them are sometimes pretty sharp and can slice your fingers. Like little paper cuts. If your hands and fingers are pretty hardened or calloused you may not experience any difficulties. But just be aware how tight you’re grasping them so you don’t cut yourself. 😇😇😇😍

The color of this drum is honey amber ? Or an other ? Thanks

Who much cost this durm set

Can u give me a estimation of dimensions and the weight of the box?

Do you know the number for it

I made this drum kit in minecraft

How do I add a cowbell to this set using the Yamaha hardware?

I thought you wanted to seat the head after you get the rim on.

What is the tom sizes sir!😌

How much pressure we should give for seating the drumhead?

How much is that?

I want this 😢😢😢 How much today please ♥️

😀

I am a filipino drummer 🇵🇭🥁.

Can I get a yamaha black drumdet free please

Thx for making it less than an hour long

"i havent got any muffling on the drums". *puts fingers on skins when hitting*

I am getting a yamaha drum set my mom is will buy the drum set

Me

He skipped the part on how he stands up the base drum.

My boyfriend ordered it for me because I can't support myself

Thanks for that - the Yamaha guy thought explaining what metals the hardware is made from rather than the actual setting up of components would be more useful. 🙄

I did it too. This is what I used Woodglut designs for

I can play Highway to Hell. which Level am i in of drums?

Wrong. The way you set up a kit is this: angle the bass drum to the right a bit, put your toms in front of the snare drum, and put your ride cymbal over the bass drum. This is the way to ergonomically set up your kit, and it’s the best way to do it.

Great video ruined with blaring music.
