The Pearl Matt Halpern Signature Snare Drum features a 1.5mm black nickel over brass shell that offers heaps of tone, flexibility, and power. The drum is bold but restrained, with clean resonance, MasterCast Die-Cast hoops to reign in overtones, and a sensitive Click-Lock strainer for added sensitivity when playing more gently.
The black powder coat looks absolutely fantastic on this combination, and the STL Tube Lugs provide a timeless look with secure, reliable tuning. A versatile drum through-and-through, the tuning range does not disappoint, and any drummer will find themselves revisiting this drum as a go-to option for recording and live performance!
