Pearl Professional Series Snare Drum: The Drummer's Ultimate Sonic Weapon

Elevate your musical performance with Pearl's Professional Series snare drum – a percussion marvel that distills decades of drumming innovation into a single, powerful instrument. Rooted in the legendary MLX drums introduced in 1985, this snare drum carries the torch of Pearl's commitment to sonic excellence, delivering a sound that resonates with professional musicians across diverse performance landscapes.

Sonic Architecture

• The EvenPly Six 5.3mm North American Maple shell stands as the cornerstone of this exceptional instrument. Meticulously engineered to produce a lively, warm tone with articulate midrange focus, this shell transforms every strike into a musical statement. Whether you're performing in a small club or on a national tour stage, this snare drum delivers uncompromising sound quality that demands attention.

Precision Engineering

• Precision defines every aspect of this 14"x6.5" snare drum. The classic CL dual bridge lug provides rock-solid stability, while the 2.3mm Superhoop II Triple-Flanged hoops ensure consistent tension across all playing conditions. The 45-degree bearing edge is a masterpiece of acoustic design, rapidly transferring energy from each strike and maximizing the drum's sustain and responsiveness.

Aesthetic and Functional Brilliance

• Pearl's exclusive 31-step finishing process transforms the natural beauty of Maple into a premium transparent lacquer finish that is both visually stunning and functionally superior. The SR017 Snare Strainer empowers musicians with unprecedented control, featuring a smooth throw-off switch and fine-tuning adjustment knob that allows for precise manipulation of snare wire tension.

Performance-Ready Design

• Constructed with a 6-ply Maple shell using carefully layered, dense North American hardwood, this snare optimizes tonal resonance and top-end projection. Equipped with Remo UT coated heads – a single-ply Ambassador Batter head and Snare head – the drum arrives primed to deliver exceptional sound straight out of the box, making it the perfect companion for any serious drummer.

More than just an instrument, this Pearl Professional Series snare drum is a musical companion that bridges the gap between time-honored craftsmanship and modern percussive innovation. It stands as a testament to Pearl's unwavering dedication to providing drummers with tools that transform musical potential into extraordinary sonic expression.
