Pearl Philharmonic Concert Snare Drum - Pancake Solid Shell Walnut 13x2.5, Rounded 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 fully rounded bearing edges for a warm, focused sound.

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 warmest-sounding wood species available, the solid walnut shell yields a dark tone while maintaining strong clarity and a focused fundamental.
