SHELL
ATTACK AND PROJECTION WITH SMOOTH, FULL-BODIED RESONANT ATTACK.
With an equalized high/mid/low tonality, Masters Maple drums feature North American Maple plies from our Masterworks Veneer Vault. Delivering a sophisticated balance of tone and power, its 6-ply Maple Shell Recipe yields rich, sustained lows, powerful midrange, and centered, resonant shimmer that’s primed for cutting, vibrant live performance.
R2 AIR TOM SUSPENSION SYSTEM & GYROLOCK-L TOM HOLDER
A giant leap in drum resonance physics, the R2 Air Tom Suspension System improves overall tone by delivering true, uncolored sound from each rack tom, creating a transitional bridge to floor toms. Combined with Pearl’s first L-Arm, the GyroLock-L, R2 Air creates the world’s most adjustable and tonally pure drum mounting platform.
STRONG. SIMPLE. STYLISH.
Masters Maple Shell Hardware offers increased resonance, improved bottom end, and a more nuanced, near field playing experience. Professional Pearl standards like Mastercast Die-Cast Hoops, CL Bridge Lugs, and revamped bass drum spurs and floor tom brackets assure optimum performance; while the ground-breaking R2 Air Tom Suspension system’s four-point mounting platform delivers optimum tone and resonance at any angle.
