Description
The Pearl 14″ x 6.5″ SensiTone Premium Brass snare is a powerful, characterful workhorse designed for drummers who need a commanding backbeat with musical sensitivity. Its 1.5 mm patina brass shell delivers bold projection and a growling voice, while premium hardware keeps tuning stable and response consistent, session after session. From tight, articulate ghost notes to explosive rimshots, this SensiTone model is engineered to be a first-call snare in any serious set-up. The hand-aged patina finish gives it a distinctive, road-ready look, while features like the SR150 Click-Lock strainer and Ultra-Sound snare wires ensure that every nuance of your playing is translated with clarity and control. Whether you are tracking in the studio or cutting through a loud stage mix, the combination of brass shell, SuperHoop II hoops and CL bridge lugs offers a responsive, open tone with controlled ring and excellent tuning integrity. It is a versatile, pro-level snare that rewards dynamic players and sits comfortably across rock, pop, funk and beyond. 1.5 mm Patina Brass Shell The 1.5 mm beaded brass shell, finished in hand-aged patina brass, provides a powerful, full-bodied tone with pronounced low-mid punch and a distinctive growl. Brass naturally enhances projection and sensitivity, giving you a snare that can speak softly for intricate patterns yet roar when you lay into it, all with a controlled ring that is easy to manage in any musical context. SR150 Click-Lock Snare Strainer Pearl’s SR150 Click-Lock strainer uses an inner C-shaped nylon clip to lock the throw-off arm to the tension dial, preventing accidental disengagement and unwanted loosening. This means your snare tension stays exactly where you set it, even at very low settings, so you can rely on consistent response and feel throughout long rehearsals and demanding gigs. Ultra-Sound 20-Strand Snare Wires Factory-fitted Ultra-Sound 20-strand snare wires (SN1420I) feature premium, even-tension uncoated wires with phosphor bronze end-plates for optimum sensitivity. They respond quickly to the lightest touch, enhancing ghost notes and subtle dynamics while still delivering a crisp, articulate crack when you dig in, making the drum highly expressive across a wide dynamic range. SuperHoop II Hoops and CL Bridge Lugs 2.3 mm SuperHoop II triple-flange hoops provide excellent tuning stability and focus while allowing the shell to resonate freely for a lively, open sound. Paired with CL bridge lugs that minimise shell contact, the hardware supports maximum shell vibration, giving you a snare that feels responsive under the sticks and maintains its tuning with confidence. Key Features 1.5 mm Beaded Patina Brass Shell – A robust brass shell plated in hand-aged patina brass delivers bold projection, rich low-mid body and a growling overtone character with controlled ring, ideal for cutting through mixes while remaining musical. SR150 Click-Lock Snare Strainer – The Click-Lock mechanism secures the throw-off arm to the tension dial, preventing accidental release and tension drift so your snare response stays consistent, even at low tension settings.
