Pearl Masters Maple Snare Drum - 6.5 x 14-inch - Arctic White

Bought new from Thomann in 2021 for a studio project that ran only a couple of months before closing. Since then, the snare has been safely stored in a smoke-free, climate-controlled space.
The snare itself is in mint condition, with flawless shell, chrome, and edges. Only the top drumhead shows light signs of use, but it still has plenty of life left.

The Pearl Masters Maple Reserve snare represents the pinnacle of Pearl’s shell design — handcrafted from select North American maple for rich warmth, powerful projection, and remarkable tuning range. Its 7.5 mm, 6-ply shell combines open resonance with a crisp, dynamic attack, making it equally suited for the studio or stage.

The 45° bearing edges allow for freer vibration of the heads, while the Mastercast die-cast hoops provide professional-grade tuning stability and ultra-defined rimshots. Whether used as your main snare, an auxiliary piece, or a sonic match for your Masters shell pack, it delivers the unmistakable Masters tone: articulate, warm, and deeply musical.
