Pearl’s Masterworks series are the ultimate in customisation and personal expression, offering seemingly endless options on hardware, finish and setup.
The Urban in Red Bubinga is no exception, this handmade one of a kind kit has a stunning finish. Trust us, you won't find this kit anywhere else!
Every single detail of this kit has been thought out, giving unbeatable tonal balance. Each individual drum as a different bearing edge to enhance the natural tonal qualities of the wood, these drums really sing with depth and warmth.
The stunning swivel tube lugs are designed to reduce contact with the shell maximising the natural resonance of the wood. And finally the air holes have been positioned on each drum using the ‘Golden Ratio’ rule to provide maximum attack whilst improving frequency response. A design innovation which is completely uniqe to the Masterworks series.
All of these details add up to make the experience of playing this kit truly special. You will never forget the first time you play your Pearl Masterworks kit.
