Pearl's Philharmonic Series Snare Drums are their top-line concert snare drums, designed for peak performance in orchestral and symphonic band performance, and designed for sensitivity, precision, consistency, and clarity.
This Cast Aluminum drum has a 3mm aluminum shell that provides a higher overall pitch than maple, and a tremendous amount of sensitivity and projection with very little effort. The softness of the metal helps maintain the warmth and body of wood, while adding some of the benefits that come with a metal shell.
Featuring TB Classic Tube Lugs and stainless steel tension rods, as well as single-flange counter hoops, this drum has a controlled, clear, consistent, and monumentally flexible tone that makes it a first-pick among concert bands and orchestra programs everywhere!
The Pearl Triad Silent Snare Strainer lets you independently adjust three independent types of wires, and the nickel hardware offers a polished sheen to the whole look!
