Description

The Pearl Signature series takes the vast knowledge and experience from some of the worlds greatest drummers to create bespoke pieces designed to the exacting specifications of these industry professionals.

The Omar Hakim Signature Snare drum is made from a 6-Ply African Mahogany shell. Having played with the likes of Daft Punk, Sting and David Bowie, Omar wanted a unique sound that could work in a range of environments. In this 13×5 configuration the snare has a power picolo sound, with the Mahogany shell producing a rich and full tone with plenty of projection in all tunings.

The Pearl Omar Hakim Snare Drum has the unique voice that has been referred to as the “power piccolo” sound. It has a 5″ x 13″ African mahogany drum shell, 2.3mm shell counter hoops, Pearl’s SR-015 Gladstone-style vertical pull throw-off, and precision-fit stainless steel tension rods with solid brass swivel nuts for super-precise tuning. This snare snare delivers a perfect blend of sonic power, projection, cutting attack, and tonal color.
