Rewrapped my Yamaha D22’s

Black Label

Hi - I just had my old Yamaha Y badge toms rewrapped - quite happy with the outcome- here’s some before and after pics. I purchased an old 22 x 14 Star kick drum from the 60’s which I’m having wrapped in the same wrap. Should go quite well with the Yamaha toms.

Wow, impressive. You did an excellent job of bringing life back to those lugs and badges. And classy choice of wrap. Very nice work.
 
Thanks guys - as much as I’d love to take credit for the restoration, I can’t - it was done by someone else, but I’m very happy with the outcome. And it feels great to give these unbelievable birch shells another lease on life.
 
Wow, those look nice. Love the gold sparkle in the wrap. That said, I'm even more impressed with the chrome. Those are keepers for sure!
 
Hi there - project done and very happy with the results. Here’s some pics. Not sure about that front reso head though? What do you guys think - that one or plain?

Looks even better set up. I vote for a plain head or logo head and let the drums steal the scene.
 
I would put back an original vintage Yamaha head or a repro of it, and maybe in black then with white letters:

Stunning!
I´d probably put a Fiberskyn or a similar calf-skin lookalike on the front to complete the vintage vibe. Although that original Yamaha logo does look cool as well...
