FBX Snare Drums

To be a Finalist, you need a Championship attitude — and these drums are ready for the challenge! Combining Pearl’s first-ever corps-style birch shell with Pearl’s world-renowned Championship Series Cast Aluminum hardware, Finalist drums are the answer for programs looking for a high-quality, lightweight, and durable marching solution on a limited budget. Finalist snares and tenors borrow the Championship Series bearing edge, maple reinforcement rings, and size configuration recipes for the ultimate performance experience.

Features

The FBX1412 Finalist Snare Drum features the all-new NanoTouch dual-action snare release system for maximum response in a lightweight and easy-to-use design. The NanoTouch parallel action system allows the snares to be completely pulled away from the bottom head for easy tuning and adjustments to the 16-strand synthetic guts.

Introducing the all-new "Vaulted" lightweight Edge Ring. Similar in design to the standard-setting Pearl FFX edge rings, the new die-cast high-tension edge ring includes strategically cut “Vaulted” voids in the interior profile to reduce weight, while adding strength at each load-bearing tension post zone.

Features

NanoTouch Snare Release

NEW NanoTouch Release system — a compact and lightweight parallel release action attached directly to the shell. The NanoTouch parallel action system allows the snares to be completely pulled away from the bottom head for easy tuning and adjustments to the 16-strand synthetic guts. Attached directly to the shell, the NanoTouch will always stay in perfect position over the snare beds, and the single key bolt adjustment allows for quick and simple vertical release and engagement of the snare system.

Vaulted Edge Ring

Introducing the all-new "Vaulted" lightweight Edge Ring. Similar in design to the standard-setting Pearl FFX edge rings, the new die-cast high-tension edge ring includes strategically cut “Vaulted” voids in the interior profile to reduce weight, while adding strength at each load-bearing tension post zone.

16-Gut Championship Snare Assembly

Pearl's Championship standard 16-strand gut assembly is hex-key adjustable for easy tuning.

6 Even-Ply Birch Shell

Finalist Series Birch Shells use Pearl’s SST Even-Ply technology for a cutting tone in a lighter weight 6-ply, 5.4mm thick shell.

Acoustically Located Air Vents

6 acoustically located air vents — two near the batter head and four near the resonant head — enhance volume and snare sensitivity, relieving drum pressure for unparalleled stick response.

Top Performance, Lighter Weight

Finalist snares deliver a high-quality, light weight performance experience at a mid-range price.
