Absolute Hybrid shells consist of a core ply of wenge, a very hard and heavy wood native to Africa, wedged between plies of maple, known for its clear tone. This hybrid design delivers a rich, clear tone across a full dynamic range, from pianissimo to fortissimo.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cem class=\"style-italic\"\u003eHook lugs offer quick and easy head replacement, precision tuning and can readily withstand high-tension tuning. Lug bases are designed with a small footprint to maximize tone output from the hybrid shell.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cem class=\"style-italic\"\u003eAn evolutionary step up from our Y.E.S.S. II, the Y.E.S.S. III further reduces acoustic dampening, which allows the shell to vibrate more freely bringing out more of its natural sustain and volume.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cem class=\"style-italic\"\u003eThe tom holder's small, lightweight footprint allows the bass drum shell to vibrate more freely.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cem class=\"style-italic\"\u003eThe bearing edge angle on the bass drum differs from the angle on tom and snare shells. A 45-degree \/R1.5 edge is used on the snare and toms to achieve a balanced tone, while the 30-degree\/R1.5 edge on the bass drum creates a low-end tone, for a deeper, more powerful sound.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cem class=\"style-italic\"\u003eThe vent hole plays an important role in performance, since it affects not only the sensation of hitting the drum (the impact), but also the initial sound, sustain and tone.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cem class=\"style-italic\"\u003eThrough an exhaustive series of prototypes, Yamaha has discovered the optimal number and vent hole position depending on the air capacity of each shell.
