The CMSX snare drum offers many of the same features of the FFX Series snares. This includes the legendary free-floating shell technology with an aluminum edge ring that relieves all better head tension from the6-ply Poplar/Kapur shell. A direct descendent of the Championship Series, you could say competition is in its blood.

Pearl's CMS Snare Drum features6-ply Poplar/Kapur shell construction pairedwith chrome-plated tension castings for even tuning at extreme tensions. As the lightest high tension drum on the market, CMS snare drums are perfect for all programs where a smaller, more agile instrument is needed. A lever action strainer system allows for quick toggling of the snare guts from on to off. CMS Snare Drums are available in both a 14" and 13" diameter model, making thema great fit for your ensemble.

Designed for even greater sound, the CMT Competitor Series Tenors offers extreme value and performance. 6-ply Poplar/Kapur shells feature a rounded bearing edge for full-bodied tone. Pearl's sonic cut on the shell bottoms project that big sound right to your audience. The lightweight zinc lugs casings provide precise, even-tuning by keeping the super-rigid steel hoops firmly planted to the shell. The bottoms of the shell are protected by rubber tom trim and lightweight aluminum tom spacers keep positioning perfect.

Our Competitor Series Bass Drums offer tremendous value and performance. 6-ply Poplar/Kapur shells featuring 6 strategically placed air vents make these drums highly efficient low frequency projectors. 6 ply Maple hoops provides a rigid mount for the triple-reinforced claws that anchor securely to our zing lug castings.
