Yamaha Power Recording Custom – Vintage 1980s – Stage White – Made in Japan / UK

Vintage Yamaha Recording Custom shell set from the classic 1980s era, finished in the original Stage White. This is the legendary RC series known worldwide for its precise attack, studio clarity, and exceptional Yamaha build quality.
