5" x 14" Brass Snare Drum Single Swivel Lugs, Die-cast Hoops, Ultra-Sound D-Type Snare Wires, and SR1000 Glide-Lock Strainer
True to its name, the Reference One sets the standard when it comes to brass snares. Bright but not nearly as tinny in tone as its aluminum and steel counterparts, brass delivers a vibrant, forward, and powerfully cutting shell tone that certainly bleeds into all frequencies and simply can’t be ignored. Its resulting bell-like overtones sing with just the right degree of resonance, delivering a glorious final tone that easily stands out from the rest. For rock and metal drummers, or simply for the timekeeper who needs to cut through the mix, the Reference One brass snare drum from Pearl is the backbeat for the job.
To accompany such a stellar shell is a hardware lineup that’s equally tough to beat. A total of 20 of Pearl’s compact single swivel lugs add a bit of weight to the shell for superior control while promising phenomenal intonation that won’t falter under pressure. These lugs anchor down a pair of substantial MasterCast die-cast hoops at both the batter and snare sides, adding an extra degree of tension dependability while skyrocketing the authoritative nature of the shell.
Trust in articulate D-Type snare wires from Pearl’s Ultra-Sound series to provide that signature snap and controlled rattle to suit a variety of genres and performance spaces at a range of volumes, from within the recording studio to out on the stage riser. Plus, with an SR1000 Glide-Lock strainer system on your side, you’ll perform time and time again with fast-acting, zero-slip assurance.
