From local gigs to national tours, Pearl's updated Professional Series snare drums have a vibrant sound that projects with power in any live performance space. Beginning in 1985, Pearl introduced its legendary MLX drums under the Professional Series banner to bring the powerful Maple sound to the forefront. Today, Professional Series snares return with the spirit of the original and a refreshed, powerful presence for the experienced drummer. Its EvenPly Six 5.3mm North American Maple shell is made for lively sonic warmth from the strike of the head, and broadcasts with articulate midrange focus in performance. This 14"x5" snare features Pearl's classic CL dual bridge lug, 2.3mm Superhoop II Triple-Flanged hoops, and a Remo UT coated head for the perfect amount of overtone control. Its premium transparent lacquer finish assures a stunning, versatile look and feel in varied venues and climates.
All Maple 6-ply Shells: Renowned as the preferred hardwood for the best all-around drum tone, this narrow (5.4mm) EvenPly Six shell is comprised of thinner layers of powerfully dense North American hardwood; for tonally optimum resonance and grounded top-end projection.
