Pearl President  

President Series Deluxe snares are made true to the standard that made the original "M.I.J." snare drums so desirable. 

The same shell material, lug combination, and bearing edge have been put into play to give you a sound that is grounded and sharp, but full of low-range overtone when played without dampening. Tempered using the internal shell muffler, the short, pillowy sound of every great AM Radio classic floods your senses.

Pearl 14x5.5 President Snare Drum

 Size: 14"x5.5"

Shell: 6-ply (7.5mm) Lauan 
Snares: SN1420I
Hoops: 2.3mm SuperHoop II Triple Flanged (8-lug)
Finish: #767 Ocean Ripple

Producing sharp sonic focus and full-bodied volume for the heavy drummer, StaveCraft snares are a startling addition to any pro player's soundscape. Each 25mm thick shell starts from two layers of meticulously beveled solid Makha wood staves. Using a principal exclusive to these snare drums, an added stave of exotic Thai Oak is inserted into the center Dado channel formed by each stave. This "Dado-Loc" joint increases total shell strength by 50%.

The shell is then lathed to a perfectly round 25mm thickness, hand lacquered, and fitted with our Swivel Tube Lugs and MasterCast die-cast counter hoops for added volume and tuning precision.

Yielding solid shell tonal snare spike from a powerful mix of hardwoods, Pearl's StaveCraft snare drums are the perfect fusion of old-world workmanship and new-school performance.
