CT-908

This double-headed model is a perfect choice for a classical concert use.
Proportional sizing, oak shell and YESS-II-m Mount System give this instrument a unity in tone and abundant sustain, resulting in extraordinary range of expressivity.

*The WS-865A stands are sold separately.

Features

New Size Structure

After exhaustive study to determine the best size for this model specifically designed for concert use, we adopted a size structure based on the proportional relation between diameter and depth, which is “For every 1 inch increase in diameter, increase the depth by 1/2 inch”. As a result, we successfully achieved the classical tone and lingering depth which is fundamentally different from that of existing concert toms. Solving a conventional problem that tonal color and length of sustain differ between toms, this model offers a perfect unity in tone and sustain as a whole set, which gives you a higher level of expressivity. It also has a wide tuning range from high to low register to allow you to produce various types of sound that is required in classical music.

* 6-inch diameter tom is designed with shallow depth with its special use in mind.

YESS II –m Mount System

How a tom and a stand are connected is a very important factor to determine the resonance and tonal color of the instrument. As the best mount system for CT-900 series, we adopted the YESS II –m Mount System which reflects the design concept of ultra high-end drum set PHX series. By putting the tom in a state close to “hanging in the air” as much as possible without holding it, this mount system minimizes the potential loss where the stand absorbs the instrument’s vibration and succeeds to bring out tom tom’s original fat tone with longer sustain. Also, response speed of fundamental tone is also improved. Shorten time lag between a point of attack and sound generation allows you to concentrate on your play more easily.

Oak Shell

Oak shell offers a fat, dense tone and sharp, open resonance. In addition to these characteristics, longer sustain and quick response is provide by YESS II-m Mount System, achieving a perfect balance between tone clarity and abundant sustain. Even when playing a high-speed passage or roll, you can deliver the slightest nuance to your audience.

Double-Headed Tom

Double-headed tom, typical of concert toms. It features a deep resonance and enables you to create wide variety of sound by tuning the top and bottom heads.
