Derived from the Sonic Select Shell Recipes introduced in 2017, the "Studio" Maple/Gum recipe has won over many Pearl artists for its musicality and controlled power. It translates the boutique approach of Masterworks into a high-performance, coherent platform.
A preferred choice for intermediate to expert studio and live drummers. Ideal for soul, RnB, pop, alternative rock, and any style requiring rich mids, firm lows, and great expressiveness.
The 6-ply 5.4 mm hybrid Maple/Gum shells combine quick response with harmonic density. The 60-degree outer bearing edge promotes solid low-end foundation and smooth attack. R2 Air ensures effective suspension, while MasterCast hoops stabilize tuning and concentrate energy.
The Maple/Gum blend marries the silky warmth of maple with the depth and punch of gum. It delivers explosive mids, ample lows, and a soft attack, perfect for close-miking. Sustain remains singing without ringing out, with generous and modern projection.
