collapse expand iconDescription

This Pearl Free Floating Snare features a 1mm brass shell that offers bright, penetrating sound with a dry resonance that drummers prefer from piccolo snare drums.

All free-floating snare drums are equipped with die-cast hoops, free-floating lugs, chrome hardware, a coated Remo Ambassador batter head and Pearl's new SR-160F strainer, featuring Pearl's exclusive Click-Lock system which simultaneously "locks" the snare lever and the tension adjuster to your exact liking. The metal shell drums have a classy brushed finish, while the wood shell drums are finished in Pearl's exclusive Satin Lacquer natural wood finishes.
Open Box Pearl Free Floating Brass Snare Drum Level 1 14 x 5 in.

    Versatile across the board. I give this a 4 star rating only because the models before it with came with a better extended snare system.

  • Outstanding!

    I am absolutely in love. the brass shell has such a full tone. Blends well in a live setting. Very versatile: responsive at low volume, control at higher. Ghost notes are a dream and the tone stays true.

  • This is a Great Snare Drum!!!

    I was honestly looking forward to this drum. I'm on my second one and both shells were not well finished inside. If you can ignore that, it is a great sounding drum. But, for the price, I think there are better options
