Pearl - PMX1450SC-808 Professional Maple Velvet Crimson 14" x 5"

The Pearl PMX1450SC-808 snare drum takes up the spirit of the Professional Series drums introduced by Pearl in the 1980s. This model is directly inspired by the famous MLXs that have marked the brand's history. The aim remains the same: to offer a reliable, musical instrument for active drummers.

Its EvenPly Six body in 5.4 mm North American maple uses a balanced 6-ply construction. The maple develops a natural warmth with rich mids and controlled sustain. The 45° bevels provide precise articulation and a rapid response under the stick.

The 14 "x5" format favours a clean, dynamic attack. This moderate depth produces a controlled snap that's easy to integrate into a wide range of styles. Funk, pop, rock or variety music all benefit from a clear reading and a pleasant bounce.

The 2.3 mm SuperHoop II hoops help to keep the tuning stable. They also allow the body to breathe for natural resonance. CL Bridge Lugs reduce contact with the wood to preserve vibration.

The SR-017 trigger activates the tone quickly and effortlessly. The S-022N timbre responds with precision and retains good sensitivity to nuances. This configuration produces an effective balance between attack, warmth and projection.

The Velvet Crimson finish adds an elegant visual presence on stage. This snare drum fits naturally into a kit designed for regular concerts or touring.
