Signature Snares Ian Paice

Widely considered a pioneer in modern heavy drumming, Ian Paice's Pearl Signature snare summons the classic elements for volume-heavy presence, bright overtones, and biting articulate projection.

“It doesn't seem that long ago that my signature snare drum was created; time does fly by! But in all those years, I still haven’t found another drum that gives me the complete tonal range that my Pearl snare drum delivers. Also, it looks GREAT!”

-IAN PAICE

Innovative. Timeless. Legendary. Words that not only describe the celebrated drumming of Ian Paice but the drum that bears his name. Pearl's Ian Paice Signature Snare Drum features a 14"x6.5" Chrome Plated SensiTone Steel shell, Stainless Steel Tension Rods, and SuperHoop II 2.3mm hoops.

Stop-Locks and chrome-plated brass tube lugs have been applied to each tension rod to keep tension in high-impact play. Ian's drum also employs our classic internal muffler to attain its essential and versatile sound.

Destined to be a collector’s item, the Ian Paice Signature Snare is a true complement to this pioneer in modern heavy drumming.
