The Pearl GPX Limited-Edition Snare Drum is 14"x6.5" and features a 6-ply, select hardwood shell finished in a stylish putty gray lacquer. The GPX snare delivers a wide range of tones from crisp and articulate to fat and punchy. Its sensitive throw-off and 30-strand snare wires provide an even, consistent snare response at any dynamic. The GPX snare is a versatile drum that produces balanced sounds for recording or performing.

Select Hardwood Shell Provides a Solid Foundation

At the core of the GPX snare is a 6-ply, select hardwood shell. The shell's thin, responsive plies resonate freely to produce full-bodied and articulate snare tones. The shell's perfectly round bearing edges also enable precise, even snare articulation from center to edge. With its blend of sensitivity and focus, the GPX shell is an ideal foundation for any musical style.

Smooth Throw-Off and Snare Wires Deliver Consistent Sound

The GPX snare features a sensitive throw-off and 30-strand snare wires that provide an even, consistent snare response at any playing dynamic. The throw-off's smooth action engages or releases the snares silently without affecting the drum's tone or pitch. The snare wires' triple-reinforced strands and streamlined attachments produce a crisp, sensitive snare sound that never chokes the drum's resonance. Together, these components give drummers precise control over snare articulation.

Stylish Lacquer Finish Provides Visual Appeal

The GPX snare features a high-gloss putty gray lacquer finish that accentuates the woodgrain of the shell. This stylish finish provides a classic yet contemporary look that complements any drum setup. The lacquer also protects the shell from changes in temperature and humidity that can warp or damage the wood.

Versatile Tones for Any Musical Application

With its blend of sensitivity and focus, the GPX produces balanced snare tones for any musical style. From tight, articulate sounds needed for jazz or fusion to fat, punchy tones required for rock or metal, this snare delivers. Recording engineers and live sound techs will also appreciate the GPX's ability to cut through the mix with clarity and depth. This versatile, great-sounding snare is ideal for drummers and percussionists of all genres.
