Nick D'Virgilio presents the Yamaha Recording Custom Series. The Recording Custom Series has been re-engineered in collaboration with Steve Gadd, an iconic session musician with credits such as B.B. King, Eric Clapton, Paul McCartney, and many more. The Recording Custom's 6-ply birch construction offers an open sound with great definition. And the hardware is all top-quality, designed to offer tone enhancement, stability, and ease of use.

Nick could make my cooking pots sound great as he is such a great drummer. By far the best drum reviews on UA-cam.
he is a killer player, no doubt about it
You should point out that a small cymbal can be convenient mounted in-between the mounted toms using the tom mount - it's a feature I love - another cymbal without needing a cymbal stand.
He really makes the drums sound amazing. Beautiful playing, and beautiful sounding kits!
That whole kit is beautiful, love how you mention everything, including mic's. Really enjoy your videos Nick and learn a lot from them, keep it up, all the best!

Nick is an amazing drummer, at Sweetwater must be grateful to this guy
Sweet playing, Nick!! Plus a sweet kit!! I have a RC kit with a 20x18 kick that I bought in 2006 and I absolutely love it!! Great video too!!
Killer tone and amazing playing.
Nick,
Great drumming as usual. I really enjoyed your vlogs with TFF tour, really great drumming and articulate explanations of what you do with drums.
Sweetwater is so fortunate to have you onboard, Nick. You do such a great presenting new products.
Love your demos brother... always so well done and informative
WOW Nick! Truly Inspirational drumming and Tuning as well! You make every kit, regardless of price point, sound like a million dollar set! After watching your drum kit reviews, I don't even bother with others because I know your playing/tuning and reviews are the best!!!!
Love your playing, man. It's one thing to have the technical chops, but it's another to have the feel for what the song needs. You really know how make the tune good without trying to hog the attention. Also, this kit is amazing.
50 Ways to Empty Your Wallet
Worth every penny, especially if you can play like Nick!
And keep their value. Yamaha drums.
Hilarious original comment. Being one who emptied his wallet for this, I agree, they’re both crazy expensive and worth it if….. you have absolutely nothing else that you’re financially responsible for.
That ride tone is killing me😍
Whenever I feel sad and miserable I would go to this video to cheer myself up. Just the sound of it makes me feel more alive. 😁😁
Best sounding drums I've heard on Nick's videos.
I still have my cherry wood Yamaha recording custom drums from the mid 1980s.
Can I have it?
I bet it's the best sounding kit you've ever played.
Yeah, I have the Birch custom absolute in cherry red. Best sounding kit I've ever played.
Yamaha is pure luxury. Like owning a Rolex
You always sound great Nick....
this is the best yamaha recording custom video, and the sound of this kit is so great!!! I am glad i have one of these ; )
The Meinl 22 extra dry medium ride and 14 inch extra dry medium hats are 2 of my favorite cymbals ever. They have so much character and really inspired me to play differently then I normally would with a traditional ride or brilliant ride with tons of wash and a lot of crashability. The first time I played the extra dry ride was the first time I couldn't really crash the ride that much and really opened up my playing with more stick definition and shoulder and bell work.
Nick is so down to earth and a consummate professional.
I just got one of those Absolute Hybrid Maple snares a few days ago and it is amazing.
Those cymbals are drier than my ex's knickers
tom feathers 😂👍
and there by... DELICIOUS
Nice sounding cymbals but ugly as sin. They look like something from grandma's garden shed. Yes I know that's the in thing now.
tom feathers Not to mention the drums are deader than my ex-girlfriend in bed!!!!!
@@rodneylee4026 Really? I used to hate the sound but love the design. I now think they look and sound great.
Fantastic colour and legendary drums!The only thing is missing here are-pin stripes-of course:)Gadd made legend of this drums/sound.
You're a bad ass Nick! Your gear vid's are the best on the net... Love this kit! Someday Sweetwater ~ Someday :-)
I love this guy! Nick is the Man!
I bought the matching snare. 14X8...it sounded awesome live. The sound man loved it.
Nick always nails it...
Great vdo once again. And that tune at 6:45, so inspiring! Cheers!
Great sound and great playing.
prefection! maybe one of the best drumkist on the market! Yamaha is killer
Hi Nick, I know you have already done a Tama b/b demo but would love to hear one in a mix like this. This is one of the best mixes of your drum videos. Thanks.
I had an 8 piece RC kit in an Emerald woodgrain kit back in the late-90's - 2001, Carter Beaufort & Manu Katche had similar kits around that era....I really should have kept it but it was a hog to transport with a set of octobans & a roster of fine Sabian HH cymbals. a five piece today costs more than my full set-up.back then...my tinnitus is gone & I'm tempted to sell my V-Drums to go back to an acoustic kit...Nick gives such outstanding reviews...
Once again, you're ripping it up Mr. D'Virgilio !.. I just picked up a vintage Yamaha Tour (8000) series drum kit in standard sizes which i believe are the same shell composition as the recording customs, with the slight exception of mahogany plies in my kit.. Same finish as you have on the hoops of this kit. Got it for under $500 Cdn. dollars !! I can't wait to play them.. On a side note, the new videos are recorded superbly.. Keep up the great work guys !
That 10" tom sounds surprisingly deep. Cool
You have a great style!
These are the best sounding drumkit I ever heart, ich love the wood and the bearingedge ist just perfect to get a very allround sound out of ervery drum. I definetly want to try out one of these!
Where do you get these killer play alongs, it would be so fun to play them.
Please tell me.
Nick, you stated that the Recording Custom series had an optional matching snare drum @3:52. Yamaha had discontinued that option about 20 years years.
Great looking kit! looks a lot like mine!
RCs always deliver. Mine have for decades. AND my new Stage Custom Birch kit? Most definitely holding its own with my RCs. Fantastic kit even before you consider the insanely low price tag. Cannot go wrong with Yamahas, IMHO.
Killer drums, and I think I'm falling in love with those audio Technica 5045s... I'll have a mic locker full of nothing but AT pretty soon!
Awesome playing and review as always Nick.
What heads are you using on the toms?
Hey there!
The heads on the toms are Remo coated Ambassadors.
All the best!
Nick
can you please do a review of the yamaha stage custom thank you, and great drumming as usual nick ;)
nice Demo Probs to you guys 👍
Wow, those cymbals!
Hey Nick Great drumming as always.. Can you review a Maypex Saturn V?
Nick is so damn good. If I had half the groove he has, I'd be just fine with that.
I LOVE the sound of Yamaha drums. I’ve really wanted to upgrade to a kit in these sizes because I’m short and a 20” bass drum would enable me to set the rack toms lower.
keep the 22 and get shallow toms
Guy Hughes Tried that, still need a smaller bass drum. Plus I prefer the punchiness of a 20.
20 is the better size, fight me
Excellent Job!!
I love these drums, they sound and look great. I just bought an Emerald Green kit, it's top notch! cant beat it!
Actually... you can lol
@AcePitcher 6 Anything TAMA Starclassic.
How do you get such a great sound with just 3 mics? Especially no snare mic? Sounds pretty balanced
You’re a badass drummer my friend
Love these cymbals! What cymbals are these?
I love a 22" ride.
50 ways to leave your lover at 4:47
thanks man
Actually, the Audio Technica 5045s are large diaphragm condensers, not ribbon mics. But that's an understandable misconception, they have a rectangular diaphragm that makes them look like ribbons. Great drum kit though, and the Byzance cymbals sound awesome with it.
I think it IS HILARIOUS that peeps have put two (2) thumbs down.
OMG really!!!???
AMZING sounding drums and cymbals AND NICK D !!! This guys got SO much talent!!!
It's funny 2 thumbs down, LOL.
And I love the new perspective from above, I do like the auditorium background better though.
Steve gadd, excellent drummer!
Sound great!
Let's play "NAME THAT TUNE" ... Nic, what songs are you playing along too in the latter part of this video ? I love that Hammond B3 sound.
Amazing sound!! What is the name of the opening track if I may ask?
The first toon was from steve gadd's zildjian day performance solo
Really is a GREAT kit - get this kit and you'll never need to buy another kit for the rest of your life - they are perfect for any & all types of music and they are built like a tank & will last for ever.
😎🙌
Snare and first tom kills me everytime whenever I hear this....
Can you do a review of YAMAHA Stage Custom kit, please?
bought the black ones!
What a kick ass drummer
also I hope that setup means a meinl extra dry video is coming up soon!
Could you guys review the Yamaha stage custom birch?
Can you guys please do the Yamaha Stage Custom!!!!!
What is the name of the Music you play drums to? They are very nice
What's the sound track at the beginning
Wonderful sounding kit. However, those crash cymbals to my ear have more of a white noise appeal. Everything else, spot on!
Love it,, what kick pedal are you using Nick?
That is the Yamaha FP8500C. Dbl chain drive - single pedal. It is a super smooth feeling pedal.
Below is a link from sweetwater.com to check out if you like.
Take care!

amazing sounds. i like the coated heads on there...you don't see that a lot. That color is not me.
just bought a brand new kit w/22" kick.and 16" floortom.
What the set for cymbals? Is sound so good
Ure the man nick
You guys gotta do the Absolute Hybrid Maple
Nick D’Virgilio would be an interesting drummer to watch him play with the cymbals raised up high.
Does anyone know what heads these are? I didn’t hear him mentioning anything about that
Are those the Yamaha CS-865 cymbal stands?
Are they still available with a 24" bass drum?
Anyone know why Sweetwater doesn’t carry the Absolute Hybrid Maple kits?
Just the snares it seems.
OMG those pics!!!! Which mics were used in this video?
*mics*
What kind of heads were you using for this video? Ambassadors?
Woww pls can u tell the snare drums ? Which is that snare ??
where can I find a recording custom in this color?
20” kick drums are so underrated
awesome video please what is the bass drum head ? thanks
It was a Remo Power Stroke 3
All the best!
I just come to these videos to see nick drum
I wish the shell pack with come with snare drum
Playing drum great requires a ton of strength and health. Great here.
Live staje plying sir good ?????
Reso for days! 😂 Nice!
Intro song?
It would have been nice to see the bass drum lift.
Exactly, but I suspect they didn't show it on purpose, as it is a potentially unpopular feature - so, to fulfil the video's purpose, which is to sell drums, they didn't show it. It's very cler they did this on purpose, because the lift is one of the main changes in the RC update.
What's the crash on the far right
Anybody know where the three songs on this video are from?
