The design of the Rydeen series is meant to offer the durability and functionality of more expensive Yamaha models at an entry-level price point. The Rydeen sets are available in two different five-piece configurations to suit a wide range of users. This includes 20- and 22-in. bass drum kits with 10- and 12-in. toms, 14- or 16-in. floor toms, and a matching 14-in. snare drum. Also included in the Rydeen series is the Yamaha HW680W Hardware set. The 600 series hardware features double braced legs for a tougher performance while remaining lightweight. Yamaha’s original Ball Camp Tom Holders are included to offer more freedom for positioning and stability while playing. Six finishes are available in both solid and glitter op- tions, including black glitter, silver glitter, burgundy glitter, fine bl ue, hot red, and mellow yellow.

This stable and convenient wall hanger comes in three different versions for musicians wishing to present their guitars, basses, or ukuleles in the same almost horizontal position as during playing. The three versions are for elec- tric guitar and bass, acoustic guitar and bass, and ukulele. The RockStand Wall Hanger holds the instrument securely in place and provides a foam padding for added protection of the instrument. Seven raster positions allow a different angle of the crossbar to be controlled by an easy-to-adjust pin-lock system. There are three or more setup positions depending on the instrument, as well as a powder-coated metal construction in black. The wall hanger can also be converted for left-handed instruments.
