Pearl's all new Reference Pure proudly builds upon the legacy started by Pearl's original Reference Series drums by using the exact shell composition formula, the same number and type of wood plies and the same targeted task specific bearing edges to create a thin shell, highly resonant, lower mass version of the original.
Maple is a fine grain wood with a smooth even texture. This highly respected wood offers a very wide dynamic range with extremely well balanced acoustic properties. Rich lustrous lows, with an even balance of mid tones and high frequencies have made this the all around accepted premium shell material for years in the acoustic drum industry. This mix of creamy warm resonant mid to high frequencies, balanced with the propensity for powerful bass response, makes it the logical choice for our 12" toms, which also happens to be the only single wood shell in the series.
Shells are 10" tom tom, 12" tom tom, 16" floor tom, and 22" Bass Drum.
Snare drum, cymbals, and hardware are sold separately

Reference Pure Series drums use a combination of task-specific bearing edges and 3 time proven woods: birch, maple, and African mahogany. Using maple as a sole material has long been the traditional choice for shells for good reason. Maple provides smooth, well-balanced tone that is perfect for a 12" tom. Subsequently, all Reference Series 12" toms are composed of 6 thin plies of maple, the only single wood shell in the series. 10" and 8" toms receive 4 thin plies of maple with 2 inner thin plies of birch for cut and attack. And for maximum response, all 13" and smaller toms have a rounded 45° bearing edge.
Beginning with the 13" tom and larger, mahogany is added to the inner plies to increase the lower frequencies and accentuate the warmth of the maple. The 14" toms and larger begin using our fully rounded bearing edge for even more shell contact. 18" and 20" bass drums use 4 inner thin plies of mahogany with 2 outer thin plies of maple. As the size of the bass drums increase, so does the amount of mahogany. 22" and 24" bass drums incorporate an amazing 6 inner thin plies of mahogany surrounded by 2 outer thin plies of maple for the ultimate in solid responsive bass frequencies. |
