Sakae
The Osaka factory behind decades of Yamaha drums
Sakae Rhythm built Yamaha's drums for roughly half a century before launching under its own name in 2012. The company went through a break in production and returned; its shells are prized for the same reason Yamaha's were, which is that they came out of the same building.

Sakae Almighty Birch
Drum kit · Japan
Almighty Birch was Sakae's flagship under its own badge, built in the Osaka factory that produced Yamaha's drums for decades, with the same shell forming and hardware quality behind a different name.
-
Sakae Trilogy
Drum kit · Japan
Trilogy shells combine maple, birch, and beech in one lay-up rather than choosing between them, which Sakae argued gave the attack of birch with maple's low end.
