3100 Series Timpani
3100 Series Timpani
This new series is a replacement for the popular 3000 Series of portable timpani. Offering improved sound and increased transportation ability, the 3100 Series set is the first of its kind to use aluminum bowls. As the 3000 series used bowls made of FRP, Yamaha's own Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic, Yamaha's commitment to move away from fiberglass made sense as the 3100 Series is a renewable and reusable product.

The timpani feature multiple preset pedal angles, as well as a movable tuning gauge for American or German set-up. Made of black hardware, the drums have a sleek look and collapsible design, making them perfect for gigging timpanists and professional players. Ideal for percussion instructors, band directors and students, the 3100 Series is a great set for practicing at home or in rooms where space is limited and moving the timpani often is a requirement. Soft bags and covers for easy transportation and added protection are also available.

Yamaha Valve Oil
Yamaha Valve Oil
Yamaha Superior Light Valve Oils are ideal for musicians seeking the highest quality oils for their instruments. The three different viscosities meet the needs of a variety of piston valve clearances and provide greater stability in varying temperatures and environments. Light oil (YAC LVO) is ideal for instruments with a tight piston clearance and music styles that demand fast valve action; Regular oil (YAC RVO) is for instruments with regular piston clearance and student players; while Vintage oil (YAC VVO) works best on instruments with a large piston clearance, such as low brass and older instruments. Yamaha Superior Valve Oils contain ten times the corrosion-inhibiting properties of its predecessors and offer increased durability for longer-lasting protection. Results from extensive laboratory testing show that Yamaha Superior Oils outperform the competition in pushing force, lower evaporation rate and anti-corrosion properties.
Trombone Slide Oil
Trombone Slide Oil
The YAC 1021P Trombone Slide Oil, which replaces the YAC 1005P Trombone Liquid Cream, has a new easy-to-use, one-step application process. This lubricant is ideal for players of all levels. Yamaha Trombone Slide Oil is a liquid lubricant free of hydrocarbons and will not dry out or become solid. This prevents sticking of the slide and ensures long-lasting superior lubrication.
