Beginning with an 8mm thick tube of solid, seamless metal, each Hybrid Exotic Cast Aluminum shell is slowly milled to 5mm at both edges (forming "Reinforcement Rings" for strength and added overtone control,) and 3mm at the center for increased resonance.

Their wide tuning spread makes them an extremely versatile primary snare for practically any application, but their low overtone crack makes them ideal for the recording environment.

Each 14” diameter snare is offered in both 5” and 6.5” depths and equipped with Pearl’s acclaimed SuperHoop II hoops, STL100 lugs, SR1000 strainer, Coated Ambassador batter head, and chrome hardware.
