Premier Elite 22" 4pc Shell Pack, Gunmetal Sparkle

Full Description

Premier Elite series

The Elite series was originally launched in 2003, and it continues to be synonymous with professional drummers who seek the very best in quality and sound performance. This series was redefined in Premier’s centennial year, featuring an all-new Elite shell formula. Premier worked closely with producers, engineers, and drummers to ensure the very best in quality. During this process, a variety of shell types and ply combinations were experimented with, until the Elite was formed. The overall aim, to discover a blend that produced the best possible sound.

Carefully selected shells for an optimum performance

The 4-ply, 4.8mm construction features an equal measure of North American birch and North American Maple. These shells also include a traditional 1’’ beech support ring to enhance their durability and sound quality.

The combination of a thin construction and the blended ply design ensures each shell delivers a full-bodied tone with a great level of high and low frequencies. This adds weight and presence, making the shells perfectly suited for studio and live situations.

Hardware engineered for optimal performance

Every feature on the Elite Shell Pack has a unique purpose. Whether that be to improve tuning, enhance player experience, or increase the kit’s sonic qualities. The stylish, deep chrome low-mass Elite lugs provide maximum shell resonance, whilst the 2.3mm triple-flange hoops greatly reduce the risk of undesirable overtones.
