The Pearl Masterworks 14 x 6 Snare Drum is a custom design chosen by drummers for drummers. The 4-ply 5mm shell is made from eucalyptus maple and mahogany provides a well-balanced tone with great power and projection. A 4-ply reinforcement ring enhances this by increasing the sustain and low-end of the drum. Overall the Masterworks snare drum offers a versatile studio-ready sound that drummers crave. A premium shell is incomplete without high-quality hardware to match. The snare drum is fitted with a 1.6mm Fat Tone hoop to increase the resonance and the tuning stability of the drum. This provides added consistency ensuring your tuning will remain the same every time you play. These hoops also offer a perfectly flat playing surface – ideal for rimshot and cross-stick playing. The Pearl Masterworks 14 x 6 Snare Drum features a red fade over eucalyptus finish with black nickel hardware. This combination looks stunning on any stage and in any style of music.

Superior Shell Technology To deliver the Masterworks sound you need superior drums with the most meticulous design. The Superior Shell Technology is a proprietary technique involving suturing the maple wood plies with Pearl’s AcoustaGlue. The plies are then baked in high temperature with 1000 PSI of hydraulic pressure to produce indestructible shells that exhibit rich thunderous tones and outstanding resonance. Standard 45-degree bearing edge offers the perfect sound The Pearl Masterworks 14 x 6 Snare Drum includes a 45-degree bearing edge. This is Pearl’s original bearing edge providing the perfect blend of attack warmth and sustain through minimal head contact. A perfect blend of maple and mahogany Maple offers a great balance of tone attack and body. Its rich lustrous lows and evenly balanced mid and high frequencies have made it the preferred hardwood boasting its wide sonic range and acoustic balance. Mahogany provides a more deep powerful punch with a dark and elegant tone. Mahogany is a relatively soft hardwood offering a dramatic boost in lower frequencies. This bass boost effect is more likely due to its loosely packed cellulose network that creates a natural resonator for powerful lower frequencies. When mixed these materials create a brilliant mixture of attack warmth and power across all dynamic and tuning ranges. Careful shell design for maximum quality First a premium hardwood is hand selected and formed into a precise 2-ply layer. Pearl’s trademarked overlapping seam Scarf Joint Seams are added to ensure a perfect airtight fit to each layer. The wood plies are then saturated with Pearl’s exclusive adhesive – AcoustaGlue which permeates every pore to the exact consistency of the wood for optimum resonance. During this process the plies are formed in high temperature molds with 1000 PSI of hydraulic pressure. Finally for optimal resonance strength and tonal quality – all of the shells are tested for flatness and roundness before drilling and assembly to assure supreme tuning. Premium shell with superior hardware The light and rigid design of the 1.6mm Fat Tone hoops increase the resonance and tuning stability of the drum. The Single Swivel Lugs provide less direct shell contact than any other Pearl lug. The Single Swivel Lugs are the lightest lug and feature a pivoting brass tension casing that guarantees even tuning and reduced resistance to shell vibration.
