This is an incredibly rare 1996 Pearl 50th Anniversary snare drum, number 59 of only 1,946 produced worldwide and is in excellent+ condition. This drum is made out of solid shell Maple, meaning no plies, offering a more resonant and clear tone. This drum comes with a certificate of authenticity, with signatures hand signed by the Yanigasawa family on both the drum and certificate, and the original box. Even further, this specific drum was acquired from one Todd Sucherman! It was his personal drum, and we are extremely excited to have the opportunity to have it as part of our inventory.
Features:
-
Solid Maple Shell with Reinforcement Rings: Crafted from solid maple, this shell delivers a warm, resonant tone with outstanding clarity. Reinforcement rings enhance durability and tonal consistency.

Good (Used)
Good condition includes items that are in fine working order, but have significant cosmetic imperfections. A cymbal with substantial fleabites, or an old snare drum with some surface rust on the lugs would be classified as Good.
