Independent shopping perspective
Pearl’s Brian Frasier Moore Signature snare is a 14 x 5.5-inch drum built around a 15 mm, 12-ply gumwood-and-maple shell. Its construction is intended to cover a broad dynamic range, from delicate parts to strongly accented backbeats and rimshots. Mastercast die-cast hoops and CL55 bridge lugs support volume and articulation, while the 42-strand wires and SR150 click-lock strainer focus on detailed response. It is a natural-finish signature snare for players moving between nuanced studio parts and forceful live work.
