One of the biggest names worldwide in percussion, Pearl has been manufacturing drums for well over six decades, and has been involved in the marching percussion industry since the early 80's. Pearl has become one of the most commonly used brands by marching ensembles at every level, due to its reputation for quality and innovation. Whether you're looking for a single tom or a full multi-tenor set, Musician's Friend's selection of Pearl marching tenor drums is sure to have the perfect fit for your needs.

If you're just beginning your marching drum journey and are looking for an accessible set for your school band, the Pearl Competitor Marching Tom Set is a great choice. This set includes 8-inch, 10-inch, 12-inch and 13-inch toms with lightweight 6-play wood construction to make them strong and easy to carry, even for younger students. Meanwhile, the sonic cut shells deliver great resonance and clarity for exceptional value.

A more serious student or college-level ensemble may want to take a look at a set from the championship series, like the Pearl PMt-60234/A Championship Maple Marching Quint Tom Set, which includes 6-inch, 10-inch, 12-inch, 13-inch and 14-inch toms.
