6-Ply, 7.5mm Poplar Shells
Giving you all the essential tools to keep the perfect pocket in tight spaces, Pearl Midtown Series Drums feature all Asian Poplar shells which deliver outstanding punch and warmth. Perfect for performing in small venues with just the right level of controlled power, Midtown is also a great solution for living space practice sessions, live streaming, and street performance. Constructed from multiple plies of bonded hardwood, the 6-ply Asian White Poplar SST molded shells create a single air resonance chamber for superior projection, attack, and outstanding tonal power, and the 45° Bearing Edge makes precise contact with the head of each drum - laying the foundations for much of the drum's lush sonic character.
Built using Pearl's exclusive SST method - the world's first high-temperature hydraulic curing system - they're able to construct a multi-ply, bonded drum shell with all the resonance and strength of a single-ply shell. This unique manufacturing technique starts with meticulously hand-selected premium hardwoods, chosen for their distinct tonal characteristics.
Impact Ready for Streetwise Players
Employing the same shell hardware found on Pearl's best-selling Export Series, the Midtown is ready for superior sonic performance and robust durability. Playable with essentially any hardware set or kick drum pedal, the Midtown is a flexible kit built for players looking for incredible performance, without the hefty price tag.
The NEL tuning lugs are small and provide a classy touch, taking up less space on the shell, while remaining efficient enough to maintain the integrity of the tuning while playing. With the Opti-Loc Tom Suspension System, a three-point isolation mount suspends the drum at two tuning points and one of the shell's air ports for reliable, solid, and stable play. Finally, with the adjustable kick drum lift, you can elevate smaller 16" kick drums to match the height of a standard kick drum pedal height for greater playability in a full-sized setting. With the ability to strike the kick drum in the center of the head results in superior tone, and better feel for the player.
A Tight, Cracking Statement
Boasting a wide tuning range in a small frame, the 13" x 5.5" Midtown all-Poplar Snare drum is outstanding for anything from low-tuned time keeping, to tight, popping snap and accents. The tonal spectrum is greatly increased thanks to the eight dual tuning points, and the 1.6mm Steel Triple-Flanged Hoops offer robust performance for percussive stick clicks and rimshots. Rounded out with the SR700 Snare Strainer, this straightforward strainer gives you streamlined action and greater sensitivity.
