Franklin Drum Company3-Piece Maple Shell Pack - Vintage Pearl

Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Franklin’s Vintage Pearl shell pack centers on a 22x14 bass drum with 13x9 and 16x16 toms, finished with gold script badges and black bass-drum hoops. Its 5.8mm, five-ply maple/poplar shells use a roundover outer edge and 45-degree inner cut, a profile designed for greater shell-to-head contact and a fuller fundamental note. Factory-fitted Remo heads, beavertail lugs, triple-flange hoops, and vintage-style spurs create a ready drum foundation; bring the remaining hardware that suits your setup.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Stage or studio setups built around a compact three-drum configuration.
- Players who want to choose their own stands, pedal, throne, cymbals, and mounting solutions.
- Drummers seeking a Vintage Pearl finish with black hoops and gold Franklin script badges.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- A complete drum setup without separately selected hardware.
- Players needing more than a 22x14 bass drum, 13x9 rack tom, and 16x16 floor tom.
