We all know about the Yamaha/Sakae split leading to the opening of the new Chinese factory, but whatever happened to their Indonesia factory?
Surely that one was always a 100% yamaha owned and operated facility. It churned out all the stage customs and tour customs so must have produced tens of thousands of drums over the years (if not more).
All of a sudden, however, the stage custom became the stage custom birch and production was outsourced to an OEM manufacturer in China.
So, what became of the Indonesia factory? When exactly did they stop producing drums there? And why?
Anyone know?
