About Your Book

The Yamaha Advantage' is designed to look like a computer screen - like an Internet Web site.
The "buttons" at the top of each page show the concepts you willlearn throughout the method.
Everything new at the top of the page is presented with a colorful drop-down menu. Each exercise
that reinforces those concepts is highlighted with a corresponding color. For example, if a new
rudiment is introduced, it is shown in a red drop-down menu. The number of the exercise that first
uses that rudiment is also highlighted in red.
The first pages of your book introduce the basic strokes with each hand and then alternating
between hands. Take your time and get off to a good start.
Throughout the Yamaha Advantage you will see a picture of a hand pointing to extra exercises
which appear at the back of the book. Use these exercises for additional practice.

· Tighten the wing nut to secure the snare
drum to the stand.
· Turn the snares off.
· Tap the top head Iightly at each tension rod making sure the pitch you
hear is the same at each position. Use your drum key to raise the pitch
by turning clockwise or to lower the pitch by turning counterclockwise.
· Repeat the procedure on the bottom head.
· Once the drum heads are in tune with themselves, adjust all of the
tension rods the same amount to raise or lower the overall pitch to the
desired sound.
· Turn the snares on. While tapping the top head, turn the snare strainer
adjustment screw clockwise until you hear the drum start to sound

V~U11Q
 AOVANTAGE • F'CUNOATICNS 3

q Getting Started
Holding the Sticks
· Grip the sticks between the thumb and the first joint of
the index finger, and between the first and second joints of
the middle finger. The three fingers form a small triangle.
· Wrap the other fingers loosely around the stick.
· Place the stick on the drum with your palm up.

Position at the Drum

· Stand straight, bend your arm at the elbow bringing
your forearm parallel to the floor.
· Adjust the height of the drum so you can strike it
without changing the position of your forearm.
· Place the sticks at a 90 degree angle on the drum head.

The Snare Drum Stroke

· Turn your wrists up to bring the sticks to their up-position.
· Turn your wrist in a down-up motion.
· The stick should strike the drum head and return
immediately to the up-position.

Bass Drum
· Hold the beater in the right hand in the same manner as
the snare drum stick.
· Place the beater on the head with the thumb of the hand
upward and the palm facing away from the head.
· Play the bass drum stroke in the same manner as the snare
drum stroke.

Muffling or Damping the Bass Drum

· To stop the bass drum head from ringing, lightly touch the
head with the fingertips ofyour left hand.
· You may also stop the ringing by bringing the knee of your
right foot into contact with the head.

q Care for the Snare Drum

Always handle your drum with clean hands. Lightly oil moving parts.

q 5toring the Instrument

The case should always be used for storing the instrument after
playing and for transporting. The case prevents dirt and dust from
entering the instrument. Do not put anything in the case that could
place pressure on the instrument.
