Overview

The original Vision formula, now in a jaw-dropping burl walnut fade finish.

The Pearl VSX825 Artisan II 5-Piece Shell Pack showcases the luxurious Artisan II Burl Walnut Fade finish using Pearl's exclusive Digital Grain Transfer technology. Pearl's Vision VSX drum shell packs offer birch-ply shell composition, built using Pearl's Superior Shell Technology. The 6-ply shell rack toms and 8-ply floor toms and kick drums give this kit incredible balanced sound”perfect for all musical styles and all drummers.

The Pearl Artisan shell pack is based on the original Vision drum formula and includes a 22" x 18" kick, 10" x 8" and 12" x 9" rack toms, 16" x 16" floor tom, and 14" x 5-1/2" snare drum, as well as Unilock tom arms. The 5-piece Pearl drum kit also includes all necessary mounting hardware. Hardware, cymbals, and drum throne sold separately.

Pearl Vision VSX drums boast blended birch shells with variable 6/8-ply shell technology. Lower frequencies require greater energy to match the high frequencies and projection produced by smaller drums. Vision's combination of 6-ply rack toms and an 8-ply floor tom and kick drum address this problem by delivering dynamically balanced sound.

Pearl Optimized Drum Shell Configuration
The same spirit of innovation seen in the award-winning Pearl Reference Series drums is now available in the Vision Series. Every component in your drum kit is optimized to respond to its full potential within its frequency range. This is achieved through the use of premium wood composition and shell thickness via strategic variance in the type and amount of plies. This sonically advanced recipe of strategically arranged plies of premium wood maximizes frequency response in every component. As with all Pearl drums, each shell is formed with Pearl's legendary SST construction process using extreme heat, precision-cut scarf joints, Pearl's proprietary Acoustiglue, and over 1000lb. of hydraulic pressure to create the ultimate acoustic air chamber.

100% Pearl quality
Constructed in Pearl's state-of-the-art facility, no components are out-sourced, ensuring that every detail of this drum kit represents the high level of quality that you expect when buying a Pearl drum kit.

Pearl SensiTone snare
Pearl's legendary SensiTone snare drums have been a top choice of discerning drummers for years. As the name implies, these Pearl drums provide extreme sensitivity combined with amazing tone and clarity. The 5-1/2" steel shell projects extreme volume with articulate response for dynamic power and cut.

Hardware and cymbals sold separately.
