Pearl Philharmonic Concert Snare Drum - Pancake Solid Shell Maple 13x2.5, 45 Degree Bearing Edges

The Pearl Philharmonic Solid Shell Snare Drums feature a one-piece steam bent shell for maximum resonance and a broad tone across all tuning spectrums. With a uniform 8mm shell thickness these beautiful instruments are drilled, hand-finished, and assembled at the Pearl Music City Custom Shop in Nashville, TN. The drums are outfitted with elegant nickel-plated tube lugs, single flange hoops, and Pearl's signature SR505 Piccolo Triad Silent Strainer. This version features a 45 degree bearing edge for a bright, cutting response.

Pearl's popular Triad Silent Strainer has undergone careful modifications, enabling the snare assemblies to sit perfectly tensioned beneath the drumhead. The strainer's adjustability remains intact, a key feature. New snare assemblies, crafted from lightweight music wire, employ a proprietary graduated tensioning system, enhancing the drum's performance quality to the signature standard expected from Pearl.

Utilizing one of the most tried and true wood species in the history of drum manufacturing, the solid maple shell delivers a broad tonal range delivering both brightness and warmth in an exceptional balance.
