The Yamaha Student Percussion line of products are tailored for beginners, and are made with the same quality found on their more professional equipment. If an entire kit is not desired, or if you are looking for a replacement part, Yamaha offers individual parts. The Bell Music Rack fits directly onto the back of the SPB-20 Student Bells, negating the need for a music stand.
The Yamaha Student Percussion line of products are tailored for beginners, and are made with the same quality found on their more professional equipment. If an entire kit is not desired, or if you are looking for a replacement part, Yamaha offers individual parts. The rolling cart easily holds the Snare Kit, the Bell Kit, or the Percussion Kit when those products are packed away in their bags, making transportation easy. It features a two-height handle.
The Yamaha Student Percussion line of products are tailored for beginners, and are made with the same quality found on their more professional equipment. Yamaha is also one of the only companies to produce a fully-functioning beginner snare drum. The Yamaha Student Percussion Kit is essentially a combination of their Snare Kit (SK-275) and Bell Kit (SPK-275).
The Snare Kit portion features a 3" x 12" miniature snare drum with a metal shell, manufactured with simple but sturdy parts that will not come loose. Percussion educators strongly suggest that if possible, the student should have the opportunity to practice on a real instrument. Practice pads are cheaper and quieter, but they do not feel or sound like the real thing. A height-adjustable stand (29 1/2" to 40") is also included, and is designed so that a child of any height will be able to play the drum. Many professional models are simply too tall even at their lowest setting, causing students to develop poor playing posture from the beginning. The stand is of professional quality, and can serve perfectly well as a drum set snare stand in the future. In order to keep parents sane, a foam pad is included that can be placed on the drum when noise is an issue.
The Bell Kit portion features a 2.5 octave bell kit (F-C) and a practice pad. Beginners rely solely on the physical layout of the keyboard to figure out which note is which. However, most bell kits on the market start on G, which is in the middle of the pattern and confuses many students. Yamaha's bell kits start on an F, creating a very recognizable pattern from the bottom to the top of the instrument. The included height-adjustable X-stand can be easily modified to hold either the bell kit or the practice pad, and is intended for the heights of children (bells: 25 1/2" - 41", pad: 26" - 37 1/2").
Student bell mallets and snare drum sticks are included, while the bells have a detachable music holder. Both the snare kit and bell kit portions fit into their respective bags, which have backpack-style straps and reflective stripes for safety. The snare bag attaches via velcro strips to the bell kit, and all of it is easily transported via a rolling cart with a two-level, height-adjustable handle. When fully loaded, the cart will weigh 33 pounds.
