Question

What is the Yamaha Turbo Tour Custom value. I have a complete set of Yamaha Turbo Tour Custom but i do not know the value.

Hello. I have a complete set, yes you heard it right, i have a full set of Yamaha Turbo Tour Custom drums  (model TTC2584) with an additional 14x14 floor tom (12 pieces without including the cymbals)in Mellow Yellow. I have had it for a long time, in fact since new and have decided to part company with them (medical reasons). They are showroom condition with a new set of Evans Hydraulics in black. I have a full compliment of 9 Sabian cymbals also. My question is to the value of this set. What is a reasonable price to ask for this set. If you need more info, just ask. Thankyou.

Answer 4

 I am not sure when the first post was made, but you price of 2500 - 4000 is WAY off!  What they are "worth" and what you will get, are two completely different things.  I agree with everything that was said except for the price and the mellow yellow was used in the Turbos (8000) series from 86-89.  They also continued the color for a short time when they switched to the RTC's.  

I have been specifically watching mellow yellow turbos for about 3 years now, (ebay, craigslist, music stores....etc) and most of them sit there for a long time.  5 piece kits are going for well under a 1000.  Most go in the 500 area.  But on the rare occasion that the kit is in pristine condition and has "uncommon" sizes (meaning ones that didn't come as a shell pack...ie: 10" 18") then they can bring higher amounts. 

Like I said, I agree they are one of the best kits ever produced and is sad that they don't resell for much.

 

Answer 5

i have a 5 peice in the same rare colur... The mellow yellow was ONLY used for this series of drums in 1986... there was 3 different series

1 the 7000 series

2 the 8000 series (in which these drums are in that catagory...)

3 the 9000 series...

my guess is that A: this is a now vintage set

B: the rare color

C: the condition

D: this is a touring set and alot of pro drummers love these for thier HUGE live sound... larry mullen JR used these for the joshua Tree tour with U2 but in black...

E: they dont make them like they used to.... mine are made in japan... newer drumsets nowadayz are made in china...

i wouldnt sell my 5 peice shell pack with absolutely no hardware for less than 1000$... and thats in good shape not show room condition... the turbo tour customs are very hard to come by now... your set id have to see a picture... but im guessing 2500- 4000$
