Premier Artist 22" 5pc Shell Pack, Steel Grey

Full Description

Versatile birch shells

The Artist shell pack features a full range of 6-ply, 7.5mm birch shells. For drummers wanting to perform with no amplification – look no further. These shells have some serious projection due to their thicker design. As a tonewood, birch provides a bright, articulate tone with an impressive level of attack. This sound is perfect for a range of styles in a recording or performance environment.

Reliable and durable hardware

The hardware included on the Artist shell pack is inspired by Premier’s past designs. Each piece of hardware is designed specifically to enhance the sound quality and durability of the shell. The restyled low-mass lugs boast a unique aesthetical characteristic that exudes class and quality. When paired with the ISO suspension mounting system, these lugs allow the shells to resonate freely, improving the overall tone, resonance, and performance.

Each tom retains its precise positioning, thanks to the all-new rack and floor tom brackets with memory lock fittings. The rack toms are also fixed to the bass drum for maximum playing stability, no matter how dynamic your performance may be. Both of these features are great for drummers who regularly rehearse, practice, or perform, and need a quick set-up and teardown.
