SNRE
  The Pearl SensiTone snare drums is one of the best on the market

As part of the 4BR Shop 'Percussion Week' of great offers, our friends at Ev-entz have come up with a great deal on the fantastic Pearl Sensitone steel snare drum.

Amazing tone

14"by 5"the SensiTone snare drums have been the choice of discerning drummers for years as they provide extreme sensitivity combined with amazing tone and clarity due to their 5.5" steel shell, which projects intense volume with articulate response for dynamic power and cut.

All this and the Pearl's innovative SR-900 Duo-Motion strainer can be converted from a side lever action to a Gladstone-type throw-off and the precision contoured lever allows for fast and absolute on/off function.

A large adjustment knob ensures fine tuning for superior snare sensitivity.
