DTX  400 Series Enlarged

Yamaha combined all of our experience making world-class acoustic drums, with over 25 years of building innovative electronic drums, to bring Yamaha quality and technology to a new level of affordability. You can hear it in the rich expressive sounds, feel it on the newly designed pads and experience it with every beat you play.

And because it's from Yamaha, you can count on durability and dependability. No other company can match the value of Yamaha's DTX400 series kits.

Rhythm and groove are the roots of great music, borne from a select breed of players who command the pulse that brings the music to life. Yamaha DTX400 Series are your ticket to join the world of drumming, with everything you need to ignite the spark of the burning groove master within.

It's all about sound, and sound is something Yamaha has down to a science as well as an art. We’re the largest musical instrument maker in the world, and have been at it for 125 years. All of that experience and know-how is behind the DTX400 Series, giving you sonic quality that rivals competing models costing twice as much. Sounds inherited from our professional DTX900, DTX700, DTX500 Series, and DTX-MULTI 12 models place the DTX400 Series well above anything else in its class.
