Six-ply, 5.3 mm North American maple shell
The thin maple shell is designed to vibrate freely for warmth, sustain, and a defined attack.

Independent shopping perspective
Built around a six-ply North American maple shell, this Pearl Professional Series snare is voiced for a warm, sustained sound with a defined attack and crisp midrange focus. The 45-degree bearing edge is intended to transfer head energy quickly into the shell. Triple-flanged steel hoops hold tension evenly, while the SR017 strainer gives you a smooth snare on/off action and a fine adjustment for the amount of snare buzz.
