Pearl Reference One Snare Drum 14x6.5 Crystal Rain

Pearl Reference One Snare Drum – Premium Maple and Birch Construction

The Pearl Reference One Snare Drum delivers professional-grade tone and responsiveness in a beautiful drum. Built with a 5.4mm EvenPly 6-ply shell combining four outer plies of North American maple with two inner plies of birch, this snare balances cutting projection with smooth, resonant sustain. The hybrid wood construction maximizes both attack and tonal clarity, making it ideal for studio recording and live performance across multiple genres. Engineered for stability and minimal shell dampening, the Reference One features single swivel STL100 lugs that reduce direct contact with the shell, preserving natural resonance. Mastercast die-cast hoops enhance attack definition and provide reliable tuning stability. The SR1000 Glide Lock snare strainer combines a locking throw-off lever with a quick push-button release for seamless on-the-fly adjustments, while Ultra-Sound "D"-type snare wires deliver crisp sensitivity and dynamic response. Shipped ready to play with a Remo USA Coated Ambassador batter head and Remo USA Clear Ambassador resonant head, this snare requires no additional setup before hitting the kit.
