To capture sonic perfection for true professional, Pearl`s latest experiments with different material combinations have yielded new tonal frontiers in our new Hybrid Exotic Series snare drums.
The purest representation of Pearl`s finest craftsmanship, Hybrid Exotic shell choices include spun-composite VectorCast, dual-step seamless Cast Aluminum, and cross-laminated Kapur and Fiberglass, for the ultimate in power and prestige.
A single tiny strand can make all the difference in the world. Beginning with a composite material filament and resin thread, Pearl`s new VectorCast shell is formed around a mandrel in an X-pattern; creating a thin, high-strength shell that -flexes- with each strike. Its characteristic sound is both lively and fat, and is a vast departure from other synthetics like Acrylic or Carbon Fiber.
All Hybrid Exotic Snare Drums are equipped with Pearl`s acclaimed SuperHoop II hoops, STL-100 lugs, SR-1000 strainer, Coated Ambassador batter head, and Spin-Tight Tension Rods.
To maintain tuning tension across the batter head, all Hybrid Exotic snare drums feature Pearl`s new Spin-Tight Tension Rods. This elegantly simple innovation creates a tension rod-within-a-tension rod, that allows the rod to expand and lock into place within the swivel nut. Utilizing a special drum key, tunings can be controlled under high-impact play like never before.
