Members badhabit Posted June 16, 2011 Members Share Posted June 16, 2011 well lets see; yamaha particle board box, dropped enough to damage internals = this picture: see mine didnt damage any internals, but EVERY JOINT BROKE. The Yamaha Clubs are built using MDF ( medium density fiberboard ), not particle board. There are some minor differences. But even Yamaha, in their description, make the same error, calling it "high quality particle board". Here's their quote:"Cabinets are constructed of high quality particleboard, chosen for its high strength and elasticity, consistent void free makeup and light weight."What cracks me up is Yamaha saying "light weight". Nothing built with MDF or particle board is light weight. I've used a ton of both in construction over the many years, and do not care for either at all. Your oak veneered plywood cabs are vastly superior in every way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members TimmyP Posted June 17, 2011 Members Share Posted June 17, 2011 MDF pulls shreds easily. Inspect any box that's been knocked apart, and you'll see that one side of the joint will have all the glue on it, and the glue will have a very thin coating of MDF from the other side.

Members agedhorse Posted June 17, 2011 Members Share Posted June 17, 2011 Yamaha uses BOTH particle board AND MDF depending on the product and location in the product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members paulo Posted June 17, 2011 Author Members Share Posted June 17, 2011 These are particle board and the joints are fine thanks - just luck I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
