I officially started playing drums at the age of 4, but even before that, around 1994–95, I was already hitting my uncle’s old black Pearl Export kit. SO PEARL WERE THE FIRST DRUMS I EVER PLAYED IN MY LIFE. I still remember when my parents used to take me to his place… I always wanted to go straight to his studio and spend the whole day playing. Then, at the age of 6, I went to my first music school and did my first live performance. The drum kit was another Pearl Export, this time in maroon. The toms were bigger than me (12”, 13”, 16”), and you could barely see me behind the kit, BUT I REMEMBER BEING THE HAPPIEST KID IN THE WHOLE WORLD.   I also remember watching VHS tapes of Dennis Chambers playing those amazing big Pearl kits. Then the yellow kit came out, and it completely blew me away. The beauty and the sound of those drums, man! At school, I barely paid attention to the teacher because I was always dreaming about that kit and drawing it in my maths books… I OFFICIALLY SIGNED WITH PEARL IN 2015, and my first performance as a Pearl endorser was at TamTam DrumFest in Seville, Spain. I was doing my performance, enjoying a beautiful red Reference Series kit, and when I came off stage, Dennis Chambers was there! He was also playing at the festival, but I hadn’t even realized it until that moment. We spent the whole night talking about life and drums, and I still remember it as one of the best moments of my life. Today, I have the joy and privilege of playing Pearl every single day, and I still enjoy it just as much as I did when I was a kid. WHEN YOU GO TO A CONCERT AND SEE A PEARL KIT ON STAGE, YOU JUST KNOW EVERYTHING IS GOING TO WORK!   Nowadays, I use different Pearl series, and every one of them works perfectly across all kinds of styles and situations. One of my favorite things is traveling around the world and getting the chance to play different Pearl kits that have been exposed to all kinds of weather conditions, humidity, temperatures… and somehow, they always sound great and have something special about them!IT’S BEEN A LONG JOURNEY TOGETHER WITH THE BEST BRAND IN THE WORLD, AND WE STILL HAVE A LOT OF PAGES LEFT TO WRITE TOGETHER.HAPPY 80TH ANNIVERSARY, PEARL!THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME BE PART OF YOUR HISTORY.   

WHY PEARL?WHEN I WAS A YOUNG KID, I DIDN’T OWN A DRUMKIT.At that time, the Guitar Center’s drum departments were like a dream. There was a Pearl Drumkit on a riser, sitting in the window.  At night when they’d close, you could drive past that store, and the see the drums all lit up through the glass window. I dreamed and dreamed about playing those drums. I got a chance to play that kit - it was an MMX. I always said whenever I get a big gig,I’M GONNA SAVE MY MONEY AND BUY MYSELF A PEARL MMX.   FIRST PEARL KIT?As fate would have it, my parents went to that same Guitar Center, when they decided to purchase me a kit. It was 1986, and i was 8yrs old. My dad knew I loved that Pearl kit in the window, so he decided on the Pearl Export. I played that kit everyday, for years.I RECORDED MY FIRST ALBUM ON THAT KIT AS WELL. FAVORITE PEARL GEAR?I love EVERYTHING Pearl makes…I love the fact that I don’t have to seek out different brands for snares, and hardware, and percussion...That being said, if i had to say there was one piece of gear that was my favorite, I’d probably have to say the SENSITONE HERITAGE ALLOY BLACK/BRASS SNARE DRUM.

Three winners walk away with one of a kind snare drum he's personally designed.SUBMIT BY NOVEMBER 7TH, 2026  THE PRIZEThree winners.One snare worth playing for.Every winner walks away with the same trophy —a Pearl Masters Maple snare drum, supervised personally by Miguel Lamas.LIMITED INSTRUMENTPearl Masters Maple SnareThis limited instrument is supervised by Miguel Lamas and began with a specific challenge: how to capture a “Vintage Soul” while maintaining the precision required for modern performance.To achieve this, we moved away from industry standards, even away from our own Master Maple standards. While most snares settle for 5” or 6.5” depths, this resulted in a unique 5.5”, 6-ply Maple shell. This specific dimension was chosen to bridge the gap, offering the lightning-fast response of a shallow snare with the low-end punch of a deep shell.Combined with die-cast hoops and a custom-engineered, vintage-inspired internal muffler system, every feature was co-designed to deliver total harmonic control in the studio and on stage. Finished in deep black with yellow stripes, and black hardware.“This snare is a deliberate departure from the ordinary to capture the extraordinary.”— Miguel Lamas*Each winner receives this snare, handed to them at the upcoming Miguel Lamas clinics in India or sent to their home.*Please go to Pearl Drums India Instagram page for more information on the clinics.THE TRACKCrank it up.

The Matte Racing Red #899 finish: a striking, bold red that captures the essence of speed and excitement. This vibrant color not only stands out but also embodies the spirit of racing, making it a standout choice for drummers looking to make an impact. Racing Heritage Features white hoops against red, paying tribute to iconic white band tires and the Italian Tifosi spirit.  Better Hardware Now includes two boom stands instead of one straight and one boom, providing even more value for money.  Unbeatable Value Marked as one of the most affordable full maple kits, ideal for advancing from entry-level or unbranded sets.  

We're excited to share three new swirl finishes for the Export series! Perfect for both new and seasoned musicians, the Pearl EXPORT combines amazing sound with stunning looks. We've added three stylish finishes to make your drumming not just sound great, but look incredible too. New EXX Colors in 2024#777/Slipstream White  #778/Graphite Silver Twist#779/Metallic Amethyst Twist  More details for Pearl new finishes are HERE. The Ultimate EXX Bundle A more complete package than ever, now equipped with the new 834 Hardware Pack and Sabian SBR Cymbals. The 834 Hardware Pack replaces the previous configuration of one boom stand and one straight stand.  

We're excited to introduce three new additions to our snare drum collection, each offering unique features and sounds that cater to the diverse needs of drummers. From the hybrid UltraCast, to the Ashwood StaveCraft, and the brass-heavy Reference One MasterCast Brass, these snares are designed to cut through the mix, no matter your style or preference. Introducing the new Reference One Brass snare, now with STL100 lugs and therefore matches the style and shell recipe of the Reference One Series.  This drum is fitted with MasterCast Die-Cast hoops and a 3mm brass shell, which helps control the sound and adds volume.  Features the SR-1000 Glide-Lock strainer and 'D' Profile Ultra-Sound snare wires for a sensitive and fine-tunable snare response.  Re-introducing the UltraCast. Made from 3mm thick reinforced cast aluminum, the UltraCast has a clear, warm, powerful, and responsive sound.  It features Pearl's sleek Tube Lugs and the black-plated SR-1000 strainer for a stealthy look and enhanced sound control.  The drum is topped with 2.3mm SuperHoops II and a high-quality Remo Ambassador Coated Drumhead.  The hand-made StaveCraft Ashwood will expand the existing StaveCraft lineup. It is available in two sizes: 14" x 5.0" and 14" x 6.5", each producing a rich and powerful sound. Stave shells consist of vertically oriented blocks that are glued and rounded to create a cylinder, instead of plies of wood that are steam-bent. The shell is 25mm thick and comes with Swivel Tube Lugs and MasterCast Die-Cast hoops, which help increase volume.  Pearl Drums continues to redefine the standards of drumming excellence with these latest additions to our snare drum lineup. The UltraCast, StaveCraft Ashwood, and Reference One MasterCast Brass each bring their unique character and performance, ensuring that every drummer finds the perfect sound to express their musical vision.
