Black nickel plating gives Pearl’s 1mm beaded brass shell a deeper, darker tone while preserving the lively bite and body that define the quintessential brass snare sound.

Pearl’s classic Masters-style bridge lugs minimise shell contact, reducing restriction so the brass shell can vibrate freely and retain its natural resonance.

The strong triple-flanged SuperHoop II supports tuning integrity and confident rim articulation while allowing maximum shell resonance in play.

SN-1420I Ultra-Sound wires use a 6mm phosphor-bronze mounting plate, three mounting options and I-Type graduated-tension mounting for even, responsive snare tension.

Pearl’s quick, uncomplicated SR-017 strainer provides effortless switching and precise sensitivity control for dependable changes during recording or performance.

Greater depth, low-mid warmth and authoritative punch without losing brass bite. Choose the 14x5 model for faster response, a tighter attack and a more compact overtone profile.
