"In all the years I've been with Yamaha I have never put my name on any one product, because I could never make up my mind. I could not, however resist the Hipgig kit. It is one of the great drum innovations by Yamaha and Takashi (Hagi) Hagiwara. I have been using it live and in the studio for all types of music. Everytime someone hears or plays it, they are surprised that such a small kit has such a diverse sound. It is also the most intelligently designed portable kit I have ever seen." ' Rick Marotta

Height adjustment on the pedal side of the bass drum is possible with the pipe post stabilizer. Use of this system ensure that the beater makes contact at the center of the head. The stabilizer fits into a pipe clamp on the underside of the drum that allows quick and easy adjustment of the height. The post is equipped with a memory clamp that ensures subsequent settings will be quick and precise every time, while a pair of supports provides added stability.

Please note: Cymbals, hi-hat stand, pedal and throne not included.
