The typical formation of a traditional or military band is 6-2-1. This consists of six snare drums, two tenor drums following with one bass drum at the rear of the ensemble. A procession can be a lively event, that's why all shells in the traditional range are crafted from birch. After a meticulous research and design process, birch was chosen by their team of specialists based on its bright top-end, full bodied low-end and the gentle scoop it offers in the low-mids.
Birch offered the perfect amount of volume and articulation necessary to cut through to ensure your ensemble are heard. Coming complete with an aesthetically pleasing ivory white lacquer finish, drum key and Diamond Chrome fittings, the placement of the bass's support hoops have been carefully chosen to guarantee optimal range, without compromising the quality of sound and projection.
Our legacy, your future. The perfect blend of heritage and technical innovation, Premier have remained at the forefront of musical instrument design, providing a legendary sound to drummers and percussionists worldwide since 1922.
