Pearl Reference One Snare Drum - Premium Matte Black

OPEN BOX - still in its wrapping, still in the box. Just received it but thought I ordered the 20 ply version.

The Pearl Pearl Reference One Snare Drum achieves its sound by leveraging specific woods, shell thicknesses, and bearing edges exactly where they are most sonically beneficial to the drum. Building upon this recipe and adding revolutionary enhancements in mounting and shell hardware, Pearl takes the hybrid drum concept to new, unprecedented heights. Every element of each drum in the Reference One drum construction is fine-tuned to deliver optimal performance, from the wood type and thickness of each shell to the bearing edge. Delivering the best elements from Pearl's historic Reference and Reference Pure Series drums, its reduced-thickness EvenPly shell is fitted with MasterCast Die-Cast hoops, for a radical combination sustain and attack. This Reference One 13"x6.5" snare drum features Pearl's Premium Lacquer Finish, and the revolutionary SR1000 Glide Lock snare strainer.
