Strainers

Yamaha strainers have undergone many design reﬁ nements. Today they are industry standards in

terms of ergonomics, effectiveness, and quiet use. Fine snare adjustments are made with a central

knob that allows small tension increments. Other adjustments are made with a drum key.

Snare strings looped around the two plates

are held securely in place and out of the way.

(The two-piece snare holding plate is not

employed on detachable strainer system.)

Two-piece snare holding plate

All Yamaha strainer levers are designed

for ease of grip and liquid smooth

operation. At rest, they lock reliably. G and

H lever types are particularly smooth and

feature finger- fitting contoured levers.

Smooth Lever Operation

P and B type

levers utilize a

silicon rubber on

the lock and lever

parts for secure

locking with quiet

operation.

Silicon Rubber

Yamaha strainers are designed to contact

the shell minimally, as are our butt plates,

ensuring full shell vibration.

Minimum Contact

A drum key secures

snare strings to

plates for quick

operation and to

ensure non-slip

snare performance.

Drum Key Tightening

H type strainers are positioned closer to

the shell to provide greater lifting power

for superior snare to head contact.

Strong Snare Strings

Nylon strings are covered with a nylon braid for

maximum strength and durability.

Lugs

Our lugs incorporate special lug receiving units, not springs, for seating tuning rods securely.

Nouveau Lugs on our Brass and Copper series snares employ a ﬂ oating design that eliminates

contact between lug casing and shell. The lug casing hitches only to a ﬁ xed shell bolt and can

be snapped off for quick head changes. Our other more conventional lug casings are small in

size, minimizing lug-to-shell contact, and incorporating nylon inserts that prevent tuning rods

from loosening under heavy rimshots. Our high-tension one-piece lugs can accommodate heads

tensioned to the limit.

Snares

Yamaha snare drums utilize two different basic

snare types, stainless steel and hi-carbon steel,

each possessing unique sonic characteristics.

Strong nylon strings or woven ﬁ lament tapes attach

snare stands securely to strainer and butt plates.

Snare Plate (Pat. Pend.)

Yamaha snare plates offer superior snare to

head contact due to the slight bend in their

design. When the string is drawn tight, the edge

of the patented snare plate is pulled upward

putting the snare in full contact with the head.

Snare plates in the CP series are made using

a special bonding agent between the plate and

the coil that provides greater durability and

finer response compared to previous designs.

Snare coils on CP series snare drums are now

covered with a special new finish that allows

more of the material’s tone to come through.
