Crafted with the same meticulous attention to detail as Yamaha's acclaimed acoustic drums, this 12-inch pad features a high-quality birch drum shell finished in a stunning, drum-inspired aesthetic.

Meticulously crafted at Yamaha's acoustic drum factory, the XP125SD-X incorporates the same premium lugs and hoops as its acoustic counterparts. This uncompromising attention to detail results in a pad that not only performs exceptionally but also boasts the stunning visual appeal of a true Yamaha snare drum.
