These kits received critical acclaim and

helped solidify Pearl's reputation as a top

global brand of drums.

In 1981, Pearl introduced the "Blues

Flavor" with 100% Birch shells followed

by the ground-breaking "Zenithal Reso-

nator" kit in 1988 with 8 ply 10mm and

10 ply 12.5mm thick shells to satisfy the

demands of studio drummers who were

seeking the massive sound that only the

"Zenithal" could produce.

In the 90's as digital technology

attained sound reproduction with ac-

curacy never before possible, drummers

sought more traditional, natural sounds

from their drums. Always responsive,

Pearl met this demand with the "Clas-

sic Maple" shell with thinner Maple

shells with reinforcement rings for a

full-bodied, natural sound ideal for re-

cording. This was closely followed by the

"Masters" series with Maple,

Birch, and African Mahogany

shells for the broadest spec-

trum of sounds available to

fulfill the needs of drummers

of every musical genre.

In 1999, Pearl introduced "Masterworks"

Pearl's completely custom, 100% hand-

made drums. With Masterworks, the

player for the first time had total freedom

to create the drumset of his/her dreams:

freedom to choose the type of wood--

either the same wood or blends of Maple,

Birch, and African Mahogany--the thick-

ness and depth of the shells, hardware

and color to create a one-of-a-kind in-

strument custom-tailored to the player's

exacting requirements.

In 2002, Pearl began a massive project

to determine the optimum thickness, op-

timum wood composition, and optimum

bearing edge for each drum in a drum

kit. Dozens of prototypes (incorporating

lessons learned from Masterworks) were

made and painstakingly evaluated by a

panel of professional drummers through

"blindfold" listening tests. Final testing

was done in actual recording sessions

where the sound was overwhelming

praised for its incredibly balanced sound

from lows to highs that could be re-

corded without electronic enhancement.

After two and a half years of research the

"Reference Series," a drum set like no

other where each drum was an instru-

ment unto itself with thickness, wood

blend, and bearing edges optimized

for each size, made its debut in 2005

and immediately won the prestigious

Musikmesse International Press Award

for "Best Drum Set".

Since 1945, Pearl's mission has

been to be the absolute best: to have the

best quality, the best functionality, the

best durability, and the best sound. Re-

search is constant and development is

uncompromising in the pursuit of being

the best, and when it comes to sound,

Pearl determination to explore new and

innovative shell materials and develop

innovative new shell-making techniques

(such as our Superior Shell Technol-

ogy) is relentless. Pearl commitment to

quality, innovation, and sound has set

the direction of the drum set industry of

today and will surely dictate where the

industry goes in the future

Post-war Japan was a time

for reconstruction but it also a time

for new influences such as Jazz and

American-style music education. This

created a new generation of musicians

who needed affordable musical instru-

ments which, unfortunately, were in

scarce supply. Recognizing this need,

Katsumi Yanagisawa started Pearl in a

small factory with less than 300 sq. ft.

and 2 employees in Sumida, Tokyo on

April 2, 1946.

By 1953 Pearl was producing basic drum

sets, marching drums, concert drums,

timpani, Latin percussion instruments,

cymbals, stands and accessories for the

Japanese domestic market. The company

now had 30 employees and was enjoying

rapid growth in the Japanese markets.

In 1957, Mitsuo Yanagisawa, Katsumi's

son, joined the company and immedi-

ately formed an international export di-

vision to meet the growing demand from

other countries including the U.S.

In 1961, with the popularity of rock'n'roll

and the demand for drums increasing,

Pearl purchased 43,000 sq. ft. of land in

Chiba and built a 15,000 sq. ft. factory

to meet this demand.

Starting in 1965, under Mitsuo's lead-

ership, Pearl implemented a long range

plan to 1) increase the number and

variety of product lines, including the

development of new high quality prod-

ucts designed to meet the needs of top

professionals throughout the world; 2)

to assemble the highest caliber Research

and Development staff; 3) investment in

the latest automated machinery in the

Chiba factory and build a new factory in

Taiwan; and 4) reinforce its worldwide

distribution network to give the best

possible service and support.

In 1966, Pearl introduced its first

"for the professional" outfit, named the

"President" series. Japanese profession-

al players liked the originality of sound

and design, and visiting drummers from

other countries such as Art Blakey, J.C.

Heard, and many others, were exposed to

the new Pearl "President" drums while

in Japan. These drummers offered sug-

gestions and based on the input from

these top pros, Mitsuo continued to up-

grade equipment and perfect production

methods to improve quality and per-

formance. The success of this formula

of listening to playing artists and then

utilizing R&D to develop and improve

product was evidenced by the high ac-

ceptance of Pearl combo drums in the

U.S. markets. In later years, Pearl used

this same formula to enter the world of

Marching Percussion and flutes.

In 1972, Pearl introduced the "Artist"

kit with fiberglass/wood shells and

shortly after introduced the "President

Export" with 100% fiberglass shells. The

following year, the "Crystal Beat" with

seamless acrylic shells was introduced.

Impressed by the diversity of shells and

the quality of Pearl products, artists

such as Louis Bellson, Shelly Manne,

Ed Shaughnessy, Cozy Cole, Larrie

Londin, Peter Criss, Russ Kunkel, and

Butch Miles (just to name a few) made

the switch to Pearl.

In 1976, the "Giant Step," Pearl's first

all-Maple shell kit, made its debut in

Japan followed by

the "Giant Step Art-

ist" with fiberglass

lined Maple shells

in 1978.

Lug DesignThe NEW STL swivel tube lugs featured on the Reference PURE drums and the BRL bridge style lugs on the Reference drums, have minimal contact to the shell and low-mass that allows the drums to vibrate freely. Both lugs feature a swivel nut that keeps the tension rods perfectly aligned and free for absolutely no bind-ing, assuring maximum resonance and sustain.

FatTone HoopReference PURE features Pear l’s new 1.6mm FatTone Hoops that combine low-mass for incredible resonance with our exclusive hemmed and welded edge that adds amazing strength and rigidity at the point of contact for tremendous rim shots and cross sticking.

MasterCast Die-Cast HoopOur die cast hoops offer state-of-the-ar t head seating and tuning capabilities thanks to their structural strength and precision manufacturing technique. This

evenly distributed load prevents binding and allows the shell to resonate to its absolute fullest potential.

Floor Tom Leg BracketAir Suspension Rubber TipFull height adjustment with our built in memory lock keeps floor tom position-ing perfectly set. Our patented Air Sus-pension Rubber Tip allows your floor tom to rest on a cushion of air. These large rubber feet prevents premature sound decay from floor contact. Floor toms never has it so good.

OptiMount Suspension SystemThe OptiMount Suspension System provides tom mounting with no shell contact for ultimate resonance. By at-taching to the tension rods via isolated rubber bushings the shell is allow to float which in turn allows it to sing to its fullest capabilities.

Stainless Steel Tension RodsPear l's stainless steel tension rods are

machined from a single piece of stain-less steel to the most exacting toleranc-es in the industry. They feature super smooth and precise tensioning with ab-solutely no play. Each is matched with a precision-machined brass swivel nut for ultra-precise performance.

Golden Ratio for Air Vents[US.PAT.7485791]

(Masterworks, Masters Premium)

The Golden Ratio, also known as the Golden Section, Golden Mean, Golden Rectangle, and the Devine Propor tion, has fascinated mathematicians since the time of the Pharaohs. It is a mathemati-cal constant (1.61803) that is found re-peatedly in nature and has been used by ar tisans for generations to create ar t and structures with pleasing propor-tions. Stradivarius applied the Gold-en Ratio to de-fine the location of the “f-holes” and propor tions

of his masterwork violins. The exterior dimensions of the Par thenon are said to form a perfect Golden Rectangle . The propor tions found in Leonardo da Vinci’s “Last Supper” follow the Golden Ratio. Intrigued by this, our engineers asked if the Golden Ratio was applica-ble to drums and more specifically to the location of the air vents. For every drum depth there’s an upper and lower Golden Ratio location and testing re-vealed that the upper location notice-ably improves attack which is perfect for snare drums while the lower posi-tion improves low frequency response which is ideal for toms and bass drums. Pear l’s revolutionary new Golden Ra-tio air vents are so unique they’re pat-ent pending. Experience the sound of Golden Ratio air vents, centuries in the

making, exclusively on Masterworks, Reference Pure and Masters Pre-mium exclusively by Pearl.

Pearl's Superior Shell Technology utilizes a proprietary technique for achieving

the ultimate air chamber. It begins with select woods chosen for their unique acoustic

attributes, milled to precise thickness with overlapping scarf joint seams for perfect

air-tight fit. The wood plies are saturated with Pearl's proprietary “AcoustiGlue” that

permeates every pore and dries to the exact consistency as the wood for optimum

resonance. Finally the plies are formed in high-temperature molds with 1000 PSI

of hydraulic pressure to produce perfect drum shells that exhibit superior tone,

optimal resonance and extreme strength.

Scarf JointsOur Scarf Joint seams provide 800% greater surface area than convention-al butt joints. This provides extreme strength and integrity to the shell while simultaneously eliminating air-pockets that can disrupt vibration so the shells vibrate uniformly for superior resonance. Other companies use butt joints where the seams are simply butted together. A butt joint works if the ends meet ex-actly, but often they don't and a gap is formed. Within the gap is air which is an excellent insulator. Air stops sound. For

evenly without air pockets to impede vibration. With S.S.T., our use of scarf joints ensures no gaps, no air pockets, so the shells vibrate fully and uniformly for superior resonance.

Proprietary “AcostiGlue”"AcoustiGlue" is Pear l's special propri-etary adhesive that hardens within the shell to the same density as the wood it binds thus allowing the shells to respond as if they were made from a single-ply of wood for superior tone and optimal res-onance. During shell formation the hy-draulic mold is heated and the glue is lit-erally boiled into the pores of the wood to ensure complete adhesion. Simultane-ously, 1000 PSI is applied for thorough bonding of the plies to create the fin-est drum shell in the world. No other system uses this perfect combination of heat and pressure to insure a perfect drum shell with extreme strength and

Pearl's Superior Shell Technology assures manufacturing excellence. Every time.

No inferior butt seams here. These tapered scarf joints seamlessly overlap for perfect shell resonance and consistency.

The scarf joints are carefully staggered upon inser tion of the specially designed mold.

A perfect, gapless air chamber.

Our exclusive bearing edge incorporates a 45˚ out and 45˚ in, slightly inset from the exterior to optimize contact with the flat portion of the drum head.

The shell is then trimmed and the ends squared to assure overall tuning consistency and head seal.

Pearl's finishes are the industry state-of-the-art. Your choice of finish is encased in layers of highly durable urethane and polished to a high luster. Truly a work of art.

Extreme heat and over 1000PSI pressure are simultaneously applied to the shell during formation.

Our proprietary "AcoustiGlue" permeates the wood and hardens to the same consistency as the wood.

tonal character. Now we have a perfect, gapless air chamber. The shell is then trimmed and the ends squared to assure overall tuning consistency and head seal.

Bearing EdgesThis cr itical step is another key com-ponent in the quality of our shells. Our standard edges feature a 45˚ angled bear ing edges on the inner diameter with 45˚ backcut over the second ply from the outside of the shell for highly focused contact point for outstanding balance between attack and resonance. Our Reference drums feature rounded 45˚ edges on 8” to 13” toms and fully rounded edges on drums 14” and larger for more head-to-shell contact area for maximum shell vibration and resonance.

A Brilliant FinishFinally Pearl's signature finish is applied to the drum. Pear l's painting process matches beauty with durability. Whether it's a custom Masterworks finish, de-signed to your specifications, or the 31-step super high gloss finishes found on Reference and Masters Premium - your drums will look as good as they sound for years to come.

MapleMaple has been a favorite choice of drum manufacturers since the late 1700's. Its grain is a beautiful canvas for transparent finishing techniques and its tone is ideal for general purpose, all encompassing ap-plications. Our North American Maple, like all of the woods used for Masterworks drums, is hand-selected to meet stringent requirements for proper density, age, and consistency of grain and color. Maple of-fers a smooth, warm, well rounded tone, with equal amounts of hi-end attack and mid-range body, and an excellent low-end punch. Most drum manufacturers offer some form of 100% Maple drum today as it has become the standard of the industry for hi-end drum sets.

The overall thickness of a drum shell ef-fects how readily energy is transferred from the heads. This single factor has a profound affect on both the tonal charac-teristics and projection of the drum. Thin-ner shells allow the wood to fully reso-nate and maximize its total contribution to the overall sound. As a shell increases in thickness, it is less resonant but louder, with more and more of its tone projected to the audience. With Masterworks, the choice is yours. There are four thickness options from which to choose, and your kit can feature all one thickness or you can specify each drum in your kit.

BirchBirch drums have gained an almost cult following over the years which star ted around the 1970’s. Their “naturally EQ’ed sound” offers the perfect alternative to the overall smoothness of Maple. Many profes-sional players today prefer the sound of Birch to any other material in use for the manufacture of drums. Our prime Scandi-navian Birch offers a slightly boosted hi-end cut, a smooth, mellow mid range and a deep low end presence. Many popular Birch shell drums have found their way to recording studios where they are a favorite of both the player and engineer. Their sound translates equally for both live and recorded situations as Birch drums are a great choice for any application that re-quires extra presence and cut.

ThinThin shell drums have become extremely popular in recent years as their sound offers the best “near field” or player’s ex-

perience. Our 4 ply, 5mm shell enables rel-atively easy energy transfer from the heads to the shell, thus causing the shells to fully vibrate. This vibration impar ts a very rich, warm “wood” tone to the overall sound that can be most appreciated close to the kit while it’s played. This effect is also great for recording where miking tech-niques can capitalize on the warmth and natural tone of the instrument. Most man-ufacturers offer a thin shell hi-end drum series, and Pearl’s Masters Premium Series drums are a perfect representation. Our 4 ply, 5mm shell also features an extra 4 ply, 5mm reinforcement ring at both top and bottom to help strengthen the shell and add support at critical head contact points for stability.

MediumMedium thickness drums, as with our 6 ply, 7.5mm Mas-terworks shells, have slightly greater st i f fness and res ist

some of the energy transfer from the heads. With slightly less vibration, a trade-off is achieved allowing the sound to be slightly “cooler” than a thin shell drum, but with greater volume and projection. These drums represent a great choice for all around, general purpose applications, offering a warm, full bodied wood tone, with great attack, loudness and presence. Medium thickness shells may offer the best of both worlds providing the perfect compromise between resonance and vol-ume.

ThickThicker shell drums are extremely “effi-cient” and allow most of the player’s energy

to be focused through the heads directly to the audience. Since the shell provides greater mass, less volume is lost through the shell in the form of resonance. They offer good tone and warmth but at re-duced levels compared to their thinner shell counterpar ts. These drums are ideal for coliseum-type venues and other ap-plications requiring high sound pressure levels and ultimate volume. Masterworks drums are available in both an 8 ply, 10mm thickness and a 10 ply, 12.5mm thickness. Snare drums made in these thicknesses rival metal snare drums in intensity and projection, providing a great cannon-like crack with extreme volume.

African MahoganyMahogany was the industry standard for drum shell manufacture for over fifty years and one listen will tell you why. Our su-preme quality African Mahogany is ex-tremely rich in low-end frequencies, with beautifully smooth mids and a slight roll-off in the higher register. Drums made from African Mahogany have warmth and body that sets them apar t from all others. Few companies today offer this excellent wood for drum shells simply because its porous exterior is extremely difficult to finish and it costs more than Maple. Without ques-tion, if your main requirements are “bot-tom” and punch, African Mahogany should be your wood of choice.

Composite ShellThe beauty of Masterworks is the ability to custom configure a kit down to the wood plies used for the shells. A composite shell, featuring more than one wood, is a great way to blend the characteristics offered by different materials. For instance, you may choose outer plies of Maple or Birch for their ease of finishing, beautiful grain and sound characteristics, and inner plies of Af-rican Mahogany to boost bass and low end punch. While this is a very popular Mas-terworks composite, remember there is no wrong way to configure your shell and each drum in your kit can be different if you so choose. The only requirement is that plies must be specified in groups of 2, as in 2 outer plies of Maple plus 2 inner plies of African Mahogany, for a 4 ply shell.

Thin shells drums offer great resonance and maximum tone that can be most appreciated in near-field applications, especially in recording.

Medium thickness shells are ideal for general purpose applications and/or situations requir-ing more “horsepower.” They offer a very good compromise between volume and resonance.

Thick shells are extremely “efficient” and provide ul-timate volume and projection. These drums are ideal for any application requiring high sound pressure levels with maximum cut.

Artisan Finishes Masterworks Ar tisan Finishes are truly the ultimate expression of qual-ity. These exotic wood outer plies are formed with the shell offering stunning one of a kind looks to set your kit apar t from all others. Three rare woods are available including Bubinga, Tamo and Eucalyptus.Bubinga is a native African wood and are only available with a natural high gloss lacquer finish due to the depth and darkness of the wood. Tamo offers endless finishing op-tions because it’s light natural color,

with exotic grain pattern, provides the perfect canvas. Most any grain-thru finishing techniques, including solids, fades and sunburst colors, can be applied to Tamo allowing the natural beauty of the grain to cre-ate a remarkable visual. Eucalyptus is available as either a clear, high gloss natural finish, or with a beautiful dark red stains applied before finish-ing, for the timeless look of supreme elegance. When choosing an Artisan finish please be aware that the Arti-san outer ply is 2 plies thick. For ex-ample, a 4 ply Artisan shell would be

made or 2 outer Ar tisan plies, plus two inner plies of your choice.

Bearing Edge OptionsOther than the choice of shell mate-rial, nothing influences your drum’s overall response and tonal spectrum more than the bearing edge.

45 Degrees Pearl’s legendary 45 degree bearing edge delivers the perfect blend of attack and warmth.

Rounded 45 The rounded 45 bearing edge boosts

mid to high frequencies as a result of greater head-to-shell contact.

Fully RoundedThe fully rounded bearing edge pro-vides maximum head-to-shell con-tact for a greatest boost in mid to low range frequencies.

The Reference Mission . . . . . To fully understand Reference drums you must accept that the desired tonal

characteristics of a rack tom are completely different than that of a bass drum, and to make these drums with

the same composition would result in a compromise. This is the mission behind Reference Series: To create

a perfect sounding drum set where every drum is optimally engineered to produce the best sound possible within

its respective tonal range and diameter… drum by drum by drum. The new Reference Pure Series remains true

to the mission and the original recipe, but while Reference delivers maximum projection for live performance,

Reference Pure is optimized to create the most resonant professional series drum perfect for the recording

environment where the ultimate near field response is required. Pure Tone, Pure Resonance, Pure Perfection.

What Makes Reference Pure and Reference Different?

Thin Ply ShellsReference PURE toms feature 6 ply shells that are 5.4mm thick

and 8 ply floor toms and bass drums 7.2mm thick. 8˝ and 10˝

toms blend Maple and Birch while 12˝ toms are 100% Maple.

Floor toms and bass drums blend Maple and African Mahogany.

Rack toms utilize a rounded 45 degree bearing edge with a fully

rounded bearing edge on floor toms and bass drums.

STL LugsReference PURE features STL swivel tube lugs with minimal

contact and super low-mass that allows the drums to vibrate

freely for ultimate resonance. STL Lugs feature a swivel nut that

keeps the tension rods perfectly aligned and free for absolutely

no binding for PURE TONE with accurate and precise tuning.

FatTone Hoops Reference PURE features Pearl’s new 1.6mm thick FatTone

Hoops that combine low-mass for incredible resonance with

our exclusive hemmed and welded edge that adds amazing

strength and rigidity at the point of contact for tremendous rim

shots and cross sticking.

Regular Ply Shells Reference toms feature 6 ply shells that are 7.5mm thick and

8 ply floor toms and bass drums 10mm thick. 8˝ and 10˝ toms

blend Maple and Birch while 12˝ toms are 100% Maple. Floor

toms and bass drums blend Maple and African Mahogany.

Rack toms utilize a rounded 45 degree bearing edge with a

fully rounded bearing edge on floor toms and bass drums.

BRL LugsThe revolutionary BRL bridge style lugs used on Reference

features a swivel function that allows the tension rods to align

perfectly into the lug to prevent any lateral pressure against

the hoops. This feature also allows for extremely quick head

changes.

MasterCast Hoops Reference drums feature MasterCast Die-Cast Hoops that have

incredible structural strength and offer state-of-the art head

seating and tuning capabilities.

Optimized Shell CompositionUsing Maple as a sole material has long been the tradition-al choice for shells and all Reference Series 12˝ toms are composed of 6 plies of Maple. The only drum in the set that uses a single wood. Our 8˝ and 10˝ toms feature 4 plies of Maple blended with 2 inner plies of Birch for added cut and attack. Beginning with the 13˝ tom and larger drums, African Mahogany is added to the inner plies to increase the lower frequencies and accentuate the warmth of the Maple. Our 22˝ and 24˝ bass drums incorporate an amazing 6 inner plies of Mahogany surrounded by 2 outer plies of Maple for the ultimate bass frequencies.

Optimized ThicknessSimply put, building a set of drums with one shell thickness is a compromise. Lower frequencies require greater energy to equal the projection of the higher frequencies, requiring the larger diameter drums to be thicker than the smaller drums. Reference and Reference Pure drum sets use the same recipe that features two very different shell thick-nesses: 6 plies on rack toms and 8 plies on floor toms. and bass drums, resulting in incredibly balanced sound. But only making the shells on the larger drums thicker would raise the pitch, so we counteract this affect by adding African Ma-hogany which naturally lowers the pitch.

Optimized Bearing EdgeThe bearing edge is where the drumhead comes in contact with the shell and just like shell thickness and wood com-position limiting your kit to one bearing edge would be yet another compromise. The sharp 45 degree bearing edge used on Reference & Reference Pure snare drums brings every ply into play by promoting a tightly focused shell contact area for extreme sensitivity and maximum volume. The rounded 45 degree edge used on our 8˝ through 13˝ toms offers the right amount of cut, attack and projection, balanced with solid punch. And finally the fully rounded 45 degree edge used on 14˝ through 18˝ toms and 18˝ to 24˝ bass drums provides extra punch by increasing the contact area of the head resulting in sound pressure levels that are felt just as much as they are heard.

E-Pro Live looks like

real drums because

the appearance of your gear

is important.

It’s a statement about

who you are as a performer.

As drummers we would rather

be seen playing real drums

and not a collection of

practice pads.

REAL SIzES No more playing on small, black 8˝ pads.

E-Pro Live features 10 × 6.5, 12 × 7 and

14 × 8 rack toms with a 20 × 12 bass

and 14 × 4.5 snare with white heads.

REAL HARdwARE No one makes better hardware than Pearl,

and the foundation of E-Pro Live starts

with the modified Icon Rack. The tom

arms, shells, cymbal holders and rack are

all top of the industry standards.

The rack will accommodate adding more

drums and cymbals.

REAL SHELLSE-Pro Live features 6ply wood shells along

with robust drum hardware and durable

drum finishes. Two finishes are available:

#31 Jet Black and Pearl’s new Artisan II

finish, Quilted Maple Fade (#464).

REAL FEELReal Feel is the next important ingredient

of E-Pro Live. Because, whether you’re

practicing or performing, we believe

playing electronic drums should feel as

much like playing acoustic drums as

possible. Playing traditional electronic

drums with their tightly configured small

pads forces you to alter your playing style.

E-Pro live drums are sized and configured

exactly like acoustic drums for a natural

and real feel.

AcouStIc SHIFtE-Pro Live is two kits for the price of one.

E-Pro Live is made with real drums and

turning your kit into a great sounding

acoustic drumset is as easy as 1-2-3.

One, remove the top hoop and the Tru-

Trac head. Two, replace with a regular

drumhead. Three, replace the top hoop,

and tune and play!

Tru•Trac DrumheaDs Pearl’s Tru-Trac Electronic Heads feature

dual-zones that reproduce all of the

intricacies a drummer hears when playing

acoustic drums. The smooth coating on

the heads makes moving from drum to

drum fast and easy. The formula used to

create Tru-Trac Heads produces a feel

virtually identical to acoustic drums.

e classic cymbals The cymbals featured on the E-Pro Live

are Pearl’s E-Classic high-end electronic

cymbals, made with real brass.

The E-Classics feel and respond to

your playing just like real cymbals,

because they ARE real cymbals.

E-Classics feature a 3-zone plus choke

16˝ Ride, 13 ˝ chokable crash and super

responsive 12˝ Hi-Hats.

EPc2 Traditional rubber EPC2 cymbals are

also available and feature a 14˝ 3-zone

Ride, a 12˝ Crash, and a set of 12˝

super responsive hi-hats.

The ultimate goal of a drum module is to reproduce the REAL SOUND of drums.

And who better to engineer REAL SOUND than Pearl, the company who knows drums the best. The r.e.d.BOX. is Pearl’s drum module. R.E.D. stands for REAL ELECTRONIC DRUMS, and it’s also the color of this amazing module.

The r.e.d.BOX has 128MB of RAM. The full memory is used to ac-

commodate the Original Acoustics of 1000 High Definition sounds

and 100 High Definition kits. The sound library includes acoustic and

vintage drums, electronics from beat machines to modern digital and

One of the most unique fea-tures of the r.e.d.BOX module is the ability to flash the mem-ory of the module and replace the Original Acoustics with one large and lush-sounding kit. Just follow these easy steps and you’ll be on your way to playing premium kits on your E-Pro Live from the

Reference wood snare drums feature 20 ply shells with 6 inner plies of Birch

and 14 outer plies of Maple, making it one of the loudest wood snare drums

available. The 6 inner plies of Birch provides cut and attack while the outer 14

plies of Maple provide warmth and solid midrange punch. The shell's 45º bear-

ing edge provides minimum head dampening for intense crack and attack.

The NEW Reference PURE wood Snare Drums incorporate the original Refer-

ence recipe, yet with a thin .9 mm wood plies and the shell is formed with 2

inner ply Birch and 4 outer ply Maple. Keeping the tonal characteristic of the

Reference Snare, it provides resonance and open sound along with the FatTone

Hoops and the STL Swivel Tube Lugs equipped.

Reference metal snare drums redefine the standard for metal snare drums just

as our wood Reference Series snare drums did for wood snare drums. Available

in 3 mm Brass shell with “wet and ringy” tone and the brightly assertive 2.5 mm

Cast Steel shell, they give the combination of extreme sensitivity and power-

ful volume making these snare drums a must-have instrument for the working

drummer.

All Reference series Snare Drums feature SR-1000 Glide Lock strainer with

patented locking lever that prevents the throw-off from disengaging no matter

how hard you play, and UltraSound SN-1420D Graduated Tension Snares for

extended dynamic range and sensitivity.

SR-1000 Glide-Lock Strainer US.PAT. 7220905 / 7301087 / 7365256

Pearl’s SR-1000 Glide-Lock strainer address-

es two age-old strainer problems that have

plagued drummers for years: the throw-off

lever flipping off and the tension knob loos-

ening while playing. The SR-1000’s patented

throw-off lever features a Positive Lock sys-

tem that locks in the ON position and com-

pletely removes the possibility of the snares

turning off no matter how hard you play. Us-

ing patented low-friction technology the lever

has a smooth gliding action to raise and lower

the snares with ultra quiet precision. The pat-

ent pending tension knob also locks and both

the throw-off and butt plate can be removed

from the shell with the snares attached to al-

low quick and easy bottom head changes.

Pearl’s Masters Premium Series snare drums feature revolutionary STL Swivel

Tube Lugs that assure perfect tension rod to lug alignment for optimal head

seating and precision tuning for the best snare sound possible. The innovative

“Golden Ratio” air vent for increased attack, and “vertical pull” SR-017 strainer

all come standard on these spectacular snare drums. While the MMP snare

drum in 4 ply Maple with 4 ply reinforcement rings with MasterCast Hoops gives

fully focused, deep rich tone, the NEW MPL snare drum in thin 6 ply Maple shell

with FatTone hoops gives an open, res-

onant tone. Masters MCX snare drum

in 6 ply Maple shell features Masters

hardware and is the foundation of the

Pearl Masters sound. All snare drums

are available in two sizes and various

high gloss lacquer finishes.

ALUMINUM STAINLESS STEEL STEEL

SensiTone Steel[ VISION SERIES ]

SensiTone Elite snare drums offer unparalleled

options for the discriminating drummer of today.

This series provides a virtual cauldron of advanced

metallurgy with a choice of 1mm Steel, 1.2mm

Stainless Steel, 1.5mm Brass, 1.2mm Phosphor

Bronze and 1.2mm seamless Aluminum. Each of

these instruments brings a distinctive sound in-

herent to its individual aural alchemy. Choosing

one will be tough, may we suggest collecting the

whole series?

UltraCast has turned into a modern gothic novel.

An experiment gone awry. A monster in the truest

sense. We set out to make a precision milled cast

Aluminum shell that would project energy and be

heard over the chaos of a live band. UltraCast

has done that beyond our wildest dreams. When

you hear players like Morgan Rose, Sam Loeffler

(Chevelle), you’re hearing the power of UltraCast.

Available in 2 sizes, only one attitude.

stroke.

PURPLEaggressive action cam

The Purple cam provides aggres-

sive acceleration for huge power

drive angle, thus changing the leverage to cre-

ate a light, normal or strong feel.

INDEPENDENT TRACTION GRIPS

PowerShifter Eliminator's Traction Plate foot-

board insert allows you to remove and recon-

figure each individual traction grip to suit your

exact playing requirements. From maximum

grip to full slide, and every option in between,

the choice is yours. The Traction Plate also

reverses to focus the slide or grip surfaces to

either the toe or heel of the pedal.

ZERO PLAY HINGE

Our s t a in less s tee l h inge i s manu fac tu red w i th inc red ib l y p rec ise

tolerences to prevent play between the footboard and heel yet provides

maximum freedom of motion for blazing speed. (US.PAT.7179978 )

No other part of your kit takes

the punishment that your Hi-hat

takes. It has to be fast, responsive

and strong to keep the groove moving.

Pearl offers a wide range of Hi-hats to

compliment your playing style from our

light-weight, easy to carry H-790 to our

state-of-the-art Eliminator, that like our

Eliminator pedals, features our patented

interchangeable cam system for cus-

tomized feel to allow the pedal to be-

come an extension of yourself.

POSILINK TWIN CAM DRIVE SYSTEM w/ INTERCHANGEABLE CAMS ( US.PAT.6399866 )

Our exclusive PosiLink drive system features

twin double chain driven cams one of which

accepts your choice of 6 interchangeable cam

profiles (4 included and 2 optional) so you can

customize the response from mild to wild. If you

want a traditional direct drive feel, use one of

the two round cam profiles. But if you dare, try

the four eccentric cam profiles with varying

degrees of offset for accelerated feel

that you can't get from any other

hi-hat on the planet!

POWERSHIFTER

PowerShifter allows the player

to quickly shift the footboard

to one of three playing posi-

tions. This changes the angle

of the pull chain which in turn

changes the overall feel of the

hi-hat reaction.

TRACTION PLATE FOOTBOARD

Like all Eliminators, the pedal has removable trac-

tion grip inserts that can be adjusted or removed to

tailor the amount of grip or slip. The plate is even

reversible for more choices.

VARISET FOOTBOARD ANGLE ADJUSTMENT

The VariSet cam is infinitely adjustable to

allow micro-fine adjustment of the foot-

board angle for optimum comfort and

speed. Footboard angle can be further

adjusted by moving the chain to three posi-

tions on the pedal cam.

Our patented seat cup features a

hinged plat form for outstanding sta-

bilit y and consistent hi-hat sound.

Bobby demands the best, so he designed his Signature Fiberglass Congas and Bongos to exceed all existing standards, right down to the smallest detail. For example, the seams are invisible, thus giving his congas the look of natural wood. The congas are 28˝ tall to fit the traditional seated player, and the wider base adds projection and stability.

It’s high-end wood construction, fixed snares and luxurious Artisan Rosewood finish make this the ulti-mate Box Cajon for the percussionist looking for the richest cajon experience possible.

Horacio “El Negro” Hernandez Signature Cowbells

Designed by Horacio Hernandez, this series of five cowbells are pitched in accordance to “El Negro’s” strictest of standards. Intended for Drumkit and Percussion players, the unique features include two playing surfaces: flat on one side, and curved on the other. The tone is the same, but the distinctive bi-shaped design will give the player the option of striking the bell directly facing in or the side (like a timbale player). The two-position cowbell bracket will ensure that the wing-nuts will not get in the way when stacking multiple bells and blocks on one post. This makes it much easier to adjust the bells from virtually any position. Another exclusive feature is found on the smallest bell, the HH1 Bella two rub-ber gaskets separate the mount from the body of the bell offering maximum tone and resonance that is usually “choked” and “dry” with other cowbells of this size. Finished in beautifully plated copper, this professional line of cowbells sound and look like no other on the market.

Marc Quiñones Signature Timbale Bell

BCM-8NYQ

The Marc Quinones Signature Timbale bell is the ultimate salsa campana cowbell. It’s rugged one-piece steel construction is specially made to pro-duce the classic salsa sound, and is engineered to cut through the largest of Latin ensembles.

Travel CongaThe Travel Congas are available in three standard head diameters: 11˝, 11.75˝ and 12.5˝ yet only 3.5˝ deep. They feature wood shells and stave construction (identical to our full-size congas) and the Remo FiberSkyn 3 synthetic head for outstanding tone that is unaffected by changes in tem-perature or humidity. Five precision Allen bolts provide accurate and easy tuning via the included foam-handle Allen wrench. Pearl’s Travel Conga stand is designed specifically with two things in mind: rock solid stabil-ity, and lightening fast set-ups and pack-ups. The stand includes a “Y” bracket that attaches to the bottom of your Travel Conga and mounts to the stand centered directly under the drum for maximum stability. The Travel Conga stand comes with a carrying bag that includes a pocket for the optional PPS-50TC Bridge that connects two stands together to mini-mize creeping while performing.

Travel Cajon The portable Travel Cajon is packed with “full size” features and sound that, like the Travel Conga, will fool most ears into believing it is the real thing. The 12˝ wood playing surface resonates the 6.5˝ shell with a solid bottom and sound port that is large enough to manually adjust our exclu-sive Snare Rake system. A simple twist of the thumbscrew gives you the option of snares “on” or “off”. The Travel Cajon can be mounted comfort-ably on your lap (secured by the included Velcro strap), or on a snare stand in a seated or standing position. Finished in Gloss Black Pearl’s Travel Cajon is portable, versatile, and contagiously fun to play.

It features a Velcro strap to secure it to your lap and includes a video hosted by Glen Caruba to teach you the basics of hand per-cussion. Practice anywhere, any-time.

Primero Bongo AttachmentPB-700BHSIf you use a double conga stand, the PB-700BHS is the simplest way to add bongos to your conga setup. The PB-700BHS features full height and “tilt” ad-justment, fits virtually any brand of bongos, and attaches securely to the mounting brackets on our PC-200W and PC-950TW dou-ble conga stands.

Snare Drum Hand Adapter PSA-10The Hand Drum Snare Adapter, PSA-10 (or Snare Rake) is great for adding spice to your Djembe and Conga sound. Fits to most hand drums in the market today, it adds a snare sound effect so easily and quickly.

Cajons

Pearl offers cajons for every player and musical situation.The New 2Face Cajon has two different playing faces on the front and back and is ported on the side. One face is 5mm thick offering a more mellow woody sound, while the reverse face is 3mm thick and gives all the punch, thump, and crack you need and both sides feature 3 sets of fixed snares, giving you two professional level instruments in the size of one.

The popular Jingle Cajon, designed in conjunction with percussionist Pete Korpela, offers four different sound possibilities in one package. Players can utilize the Brazil-ian Platinella-style jingles or the tambourine-style jingles separately or together, simply by twisting open the jingle fastener.

The Boom Box Cajon creates never-before-heard low-end frequencies from a Fiberglass cajon! This cajon features the high-quality construction you expect from Pearl, with a fixed snare system and a built-in bass port for subsonic frequencies you have to hear to believe!

In response to increased support and awareness of the value of music and drums in education, particularly with young children, Pearl has created the Fun Box. The Fun Box is specially designed for use by kids to help them develop proper playing mechanics while playing an instru-ment in a smaller, kid-friendly size. It’s durable Fiberglass construction makes it a perfect addition for use in Eddie Tuduri’s Rhythmic Arts Project.

From the FunBox for kids to the Subsonic BoomBox and the New 2 Face Cajon, Pearl’s Cajons are sure to add a unique sound to your percussion arsenal.

Timbales Pearl’s Primero Pro Steel timbales are a budget conscious timbale set packed with professional features. The heavy-duty double braced tilting stand securely supports the 14˝ & 15˝ steel shells that are 7˝ deep for added projection and greater cascara surface area. The cowbell mount is based off our PT-900 Timbale stand making set-up and teardown possibly in seconds. Tuning wrench and sticks are included.

DjembesDjembes are a traditional African instrument that offer a wide variety of sounds and are perfect for drum circles. The Professional Elite Series is avail-able in Oak (12.5˝ diameter) and Fiberglass (12.5˝ and 14˝ diameter). All feature our Contour Crowns for comfortable playing and authentic Goat skin heads for deep lows and crisps highs.

EZ-Tune DjembePearl’s EZ Tune Djembe is the first djembe ever to combine the traditional look and feel of a rope djembe with the modern functionality of a mechani-cal tuning system. It provides the incredible low-end response and cutting high-end projection that Pearl djembes are known for, with unprecedented tuning accuracy. EZ Tune Djembes truly are the future of Djembe construction and function. Avail-able in 12.5˝ or 14˝ sizes and with traditional Oak in #508 Honey Amber finish or New #533 Gloss Black finish with red ropes, or lightweight Fiberglass con-struction in #632 Cranberry Fade finish.

DjemBass PJBS-350If you want extreme low-end, and a head-turning alternative to a standard bass drum, look no further than to Pearl’s DjemBass. Convert our most popu-lar PJF-350 Fiberglass Djembe into a compact kick drum with the DjemBass accessory pack. To re-duce the attack and add greater “lows” we have in-cluded a cloth cap that stretches around the head. For greater low-end, slip the included neoprene disc inside which give you two sound options. Your pedal (not included) attaches via an I.S.S. type clamp to the Djembe’s stand mounting plate.

Folkloric PercussionThis line of congas and bongos features a tradi-tional look with modern innovation. Thicker South American style natural skins and a fiberglass gel coat on the interior seals provide the sound desired by today's players, and that of the classic Cuban sound. The Cata is a bamboo instrument played with sticks. Our Bamboo Claves produce a dry, “airy” tone that is lower in pitch than our “Chin-Chan” Hardwood Claves. The Achere is a single shaker with a handle used for time-keeping, while the Guataca, with scalloped edges for scraping, gives great metallic effects.

BatasPearl Percussion Bata drums are now available in Crimson Sunrise, the same beautiful finish featured on our Folkloric Percussion congas and bongos. Additionally, the hardware is now finished in Pol-ished Steel and matches the hardware on our other tunable hand drums. These sacred ceremonial instruments have a thicker Enu (large) head for a deep, rich tone.

TaikoAll of Pearl’s Taiko are made from staved oak which are beautifully finished in a matte natural stain and produces the rich warmth of wood without the expensive price tag of a tra-ditional carved shell. The insides of the shells are shaped using a method called “Hado-Carving” with special reinforcement rings which are placed to break up the unwanted overtones producing a balanced sonic reflec-tion within the drums. But the sound starts on the outside, with premium cow hide exclu-sively chosen for Pearl Taiko drums. Pearl’s Bachi are from a domestic hardwood in Thai-land known as Acacia and offered in three different diameters to suit the size of both the player and Taiko. You will want to protect your investment of these beautifully crafted instru-ments, so Pearl offers soft padded carrying cases for the larger Miya Taiko.
