Key Features
Harmonically vibrant with increased volume! The Pearl Session Studio Select 14"x 6.5" Snare Drum has the unique blend of a hybrid shell, producing warm and resonant sounds. The snare's drum shell has a thinner, 5.4mm EvenPly-Six combination of Masters-grade Birch and African Mahogany, providing perfect drum shells that exhibit superior tone and resonance. The Session Studio Snare provides a completely new take on the sound spectrum. With Remo snare drum heads, along with the construction of the shells, the snare drum provides a roaring bottom end with plenty of high-range attack for a dynamic range of sound.
The Pearl Session Studio Select increases punch and focus with a 60-degree bearing edge. The Session Studio Select is harmonically vibrant and is perfect for studio recording, or playing in medium/large venues. With Black Mirror Chrome finish and Remo drum heads; the snare looks as stunning as it sounds!

A winning combination. When designing the Session Studio Select snare, Pearl pulled out all the stops. Its 6-ply construction, using Pearl's Even-Ply manufacturing method, combines four outer plies of birch with two inner layers of mahogany, creating a bold, thick low-end and a powerful attack. Its shallower thickness allows the shell to vibrate more freely, emphasising and projecting that chunky bass response. Traditional wood, with a modern design.
Let that tone shine. When creating a top notch snare drum like the Session Studio Select, Pearl never leaves anything to chance. When it comes to hardware, every element has been chosen with one aim in mind - preserving and enhancing that luscious birch and mahogany tone.
The SuperHoop II's triple-flanged design allows the Remo drumhead to vibrate as freely as possible, while also providing a great stick surface for rimshots and cross-sticks. But Pearl chose the thicker, 2.3mm variety which subtly dampens ringy overtones from the head to focus in on the pure shell tone beneath.
Likewise, the CL bridge lugs reduce physical contact with the shell itself, minimizing any restriction to its movement and maximising its beefy, full-bodied sound. The classic SR-017 snare strainer is simplicity itself, providing a smooth, no-nonsense action and world class control over your snare wire sensitivity. The Pearl Session Studio Select snare is just that - the complete package.
