Overview

A thin-shell snare drum blending birch and mahogany for balanced punch and sophistication.

The Pearl Session Studio Select snare drum provides a harmonically vibrant tone for studio recording and live performance. Built with Masters-grade Birch and African Mahogany plies and a 60-degree bearing edge, this snare generates a blend of clarity, warmth and punch that complements any musical style.

Premium Shell Construction Captures Rich Tone

The Session Studio Select's 5.4mm EvenPly-Six shell fuses Birch and Mahogany plies for resonant, focused tone with gorgeous visual depth. Birch provides crisp attack and sustain, while Mahogany enriches mids and lows. Together, these woods achieve a pre-EQ'd balance of brightness and body. A thin shell also allows easier tuning and more sensitive response. The sharp bearing edge further enhances articulation and tone shaping. This fusion of premium woods and thoughtful design produces a drum with professional-level sound and aesthetic appeal.

Fresh Bearing Edges Maximize Resonance

Pearl's 60-degree bearing edges allow the drumhead to seat fully against the shell, maximizing shell resonance. The sharp cut also focuses the drum's tone for enhanced projection. These fresh edges, combined with the EvenPly shell, give the Session Studio Select a clear and controlled voice that punches through the mix.

Hardware and Finish Upgrades for the Professional

This snare drum comes equipped with professional-grade hardware and an eye-catching finish to match its premium internals. Triple-flange steel hoops provide rigidity for consistent rimshots and cross-sticking. Eight tube lugs keep the drum securely tuned through live shows and recording sessions alike. A stylish Nicotine White Marine Pearl wrap protects the shell while highlighting its sleek silhouette.
