Independent shopping perspective
Pearl’s Music City Custom Solid Shell Snare is a 14 x 6.5-inch drum built around an 8 mm solid cherry shell with solid maple reinforcement rings. Its shell begins as a steam-treated North American cherry plank, then is shaped, milled, drilled, finished, and assembled at Pearl’s Nashville custom shop. Vintage White Marine Pearl forms the center strip, framed by Macassar Ebony inlays. Single STL swivel lugs, ten stainless-steel tuning rods, SuperHoop II triple-flanged hoops, and Ultra-Sound I Type snares complete the hardware package.
