Pearl MH1460/B Matt Haplern Snare Drum

Pearl MH1460/B Matt Haplern Snare Drum Overview:

Pearl Artist Matt Halpern designed each element of his signature snare drum to complement and contrast the complex nature of his playing. Subtle touches, like black powder-coating and three shell vents, help to temper the lively tone of its 1.5mm brass shell. MasterCast die-cast hoops boost projection, but Evans Heavyweight Dry heads deliver a controlled attack.

Its SR150 Click-Lock strainer delivers increased sensitivity, while visual touches like black/brass STL Swivel Tube Lugs and striking yellow gaskets inspire the ideal performance. The result is a snare drum with cutting, dry versatility that responds quickly to aggressive play and serves a variety of styles with an expanded tuning range.

Features:

Designed by Matt Halpern
"I wanted to optimize this drum based off of my previous experiences with developing a signature snare, to make something that raised the bar even higher in terms of comfortability, quality, and sound. I honestly could not be happier with the result!"

Black Swivel Tube Lugs
Pearl's unique STL Lugs allow for increased resonance, minimal shell contact, and precisely aligned, no-bind tuning. The body and harness of each lug are powder-coated in gloss black, but the pivoting tension sleeve is brass for visual contrast.

Three Die-Cast Vents
The vent layout in the all-brass shell takes a triangular form for increased air release and drier tonality.

MasterCast Hoops
A strong, reliable die-cast hoop for increased volume, attack, and overtone control. Powder-coated in Gloss Black.

1.5mm Black Brass Shell
Black powder-coated 1.5mm brass shell for high-volume versatility. Created without a bead to give the progressive, technical drummer an articulate, controlled snare tone and high attack.
