The Absolute Hybrid Maple is Yamaha's pro-level acoustic kit, built around a hybrid shell: a core ply of hard African wenge sandwiched between maple plies. That combination gives a clear, rich tone that holds together from soft playing to hard hitting. The toms and snare use a 45º/R1.5 bearing edge for balanced tone, while the 22" bass drum gets a 30º/R1.5 edge for deeper low end. It suits gigging and recording drummers who want a versatile, road-tough kit rather than a beginner set, and it sits below Yamaha's flagship PHX line while borrowing its shell technology.

The Absolute Hybrid Maple shell pack is a 4-piece drum kit shell set with a 22" bass drum. Yamaha developed the series over three years with input from its artists. It uses the hybrid shell technology from Yamaha's flagship PHX Series.
Each shell has a core ply of wenge, a very hard and heavy wood native to Africa, between plies of maple. The shell interiors are coated with Yamaha's "Vintage Natural" finish. The bass drum has a 30º/R1.5 bearing edge for more low-end tone. The snare and toms use a 45º/R1.5 edge for a balanced tone. Vent hole number and position are set for the air capacity of each shell.
The hardware has hook lugs for quick head changes, precise tuning and high-tension use. The lug bases have a small footprint so the shell can resonate. Aluminum die-cast hoops give a tight sound with strong attack and decay. The YESS III tom mount reduces acoustic dampening so the shell vibrates more freely. The snare, cymbals and hardware are sold separately.
