Snare Drums

Pearl's Short Fuse snare drum is a snappy addition to any drum or percussion kit. 6-plies of poplar and a 4.5-inch depth give you a high-pitched pop and crack that cuts through any mix; adding that little something extra.

To be truly great, one must evolve over time. Drumming legend Dennis Chambers took this to heart when considering the transformation of his snare drum sound. Dennis designed his new Signature Snare for sonic evolution. Using the multi-lug design of his previous model, it employs 10 tuning points on the batter head and eight on the bottom for top-end tonal focus. Returning to the 4-ply Maple w/4-ply Re-Ring shell of his original Signature model, (this time in a Matte Black lacquer finish for visual versatility,) it features a solid, searing and articulate sound that fits well in any playing field. The real difference comes with its SR-300 Philharmonic Strainer that features three individually tunable 6-strand snappy wire snares. Each can be engaged or disengaged to further sculpt the sound of the drum. Pearl's reliably durable Mastercast Die-Cast Hoops also add weight for increased projection.
