SUMMER NAMM 2014: Pearl Drums stand in pictures
SUMMER NAMM 2014: In 1973, Pearl set a benchmark in the drumming world with the introduction of Crystal Beat. Well, now the set that is sure to attract more than a fair amount of attention on stage is back.
Crystal Beat's toms include the Opti-Mount suspension system to remove undue shell pressure and increase sustain. 1.6mm triple-flanged hoops offer just the right amount of attack without sacrificing tonal body.
Crystal Beat Series - Ultra Clear
The Spotlight Bass Drum is the tonal heartbeat of the drum set, and features an extended tension/tuning range for low, chest-thumping bass frequencies. Includes locking, slip-free spurs, and secure mounting for toms and accessories. A great foundation for the rest of this complete drum set-up.
Crystal Beat Series - Tangerine Glass and Ruby Red
To capture everything from the loudest accents to the softest "ghost" notes, Spotlight's matching Snare Drum is full of attack and power, yet sensitive enough for drumming at any volume.
Included is Spotlight's Cymbal Set featuring a 16” brass Crash/Ride and a set of 14” brass Hi-Hats; perfect for accents and time-keeping until an upgraded multi-cymbal set-up is acquired.
