Pearl SensiTone Elite 5”x14” Nickel-Plated Brass Snare Drum
The PEARL SensiTone Elite 5”x14” Nickel-Plated Brass Snare Drum offers an unparalleled option for the discriminating drummer and at a price significantly lower than other similar snares. PEARL Sensitone Elite has been a very successful line of snare drums, offering classic design and great sound at a lower price and this beaded brass shell model, looking quite fantastic with its black nickel plating, is truly a great deal!
PEARL Sensitone Elite STE1450B distinctive features:
• The Drum Shell: 1.5mm Brass and “beaded”! The center bead around the center of the drum is a classic and familiar design element and (without naming any names) helps make some of the most famous snare drums great. The center bead stiffens the shell and helps focus the response of the drum.
• The Look: The shell is nickel-plated in Black for a very cool, very handsome appearance. The plating is absolutely smooth, very reflective and prevents the shell from taking on any kind of corrosion.
• The Sound: PEARL intended to make the Sensitone Elite snare drums ideal general purpose snares. The 5” depth will deliver good mid-to-high range depth to the tone, a good full and solid sound while the brass shell will cut without “clank”, nicely bright but with lots of solid, mid- to high-range response and a lively ringiness. The soft-to-loud dynamics are good and wide and the Sensitone Elite Brass snare will be comfortable and will sound great playing just about anything!
• The SuperHoop II drum hoops: SuperHoop II is an extra-heavy triple-flanged drum hoop that will not warp or bend, guaranteeing even and accurate tuning all the way around the drum. SuperHoop II will also take all the rim-shotting you may give it without cringing or choking and can correct a less-than-perfect drum head.
• The 10-Lug design is the professional approach, using the PEARL STE1450BR low-mass Bridge Lugs that put very little metal against the drum shell, allowing a more open response and greater resonance.
• The Pearl SR-017 Snare Strainer, a time-proven snare throw-off, is smooth, dependable, quiet and non-slip. Precise adjustments of your snare tension will hold and your use of the SR-017 Strainer will become instinctive.
