View Full DescriptionMaple tonewood with Pearl's Superior Shell Technology
Maple has long been a favourite drum shell wood of drum manufacturers and players alike. Its boosted low end and smooth mids and highs make it sonically well-suited for just about any style of music. Because of this, you often find maple is used in high-end kits by some very well-respected players.
Pearl's Decade series 6-ply shells are built from ultra-thin maple plies with hand-treated bearing edges to ensure you're getting the same performance and tones as such high-end kits. Each section of ply is cross-laminated and features Pearl's superior shell technology, resulting in a thin shell that reacts quickly to the stroke and gives you the ultimate air chamber.
AcoustiGlue maximises shell resonance
The slim, 6-ply shells are manufactured with Pearl's 'Superior Shell Technology' with overlapping scarf-joint seams and proprietary AcoustiGlue. This clever glue fills every pore and dries to the exact consistency of the wood for optimal resonance. The plies are then formed in a high-temperature mold with a hydraulic press to produce the perfect drum shell.
