Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built in Nashville as part of Pearl’s Music City Custom series, this 14 x 6.5-inch snare centers on an 8 mm, single-ply steam-bent maple shell with 6 mm maple reinforcement rings. The 45-degree edges are made for consistent head seating, while SuperHoop II hoops, single swivel lugs and the SR017 throw-off handle tuning and snare engagement. Its reclaimed Belle Meade bourbon-barrel oak inlay gives each limited-production drum a distinct grain and color pattern.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players who want a Nashville-built maple snare with individually varied reclaimed-oak visual detail.
- Drummers seeking a 14 x 6.5-inch snare with supplied Remo Ambassador heads and professional Pearl hardware.
