PRESS RELEASE

Virgil Donati Teams with Pearl for New Signature Snare

April 06, 2005

(Click for a close-up)

Pearl's new VG-1450 Virgil Donati Signature Snare Drum is inspired by the Reference Series and features an 8 ply 50/50 blended maple and birch shell with rounded bearing edge. In drum talk, thicker is louder and the VG's 8 plies supplies plenty of loudness but Virgil wanted more so we blended birch to the inner plies for added brightness and cut.

The rounded top bearing edge supplies overtone control and allows the drum to be played wide open without muffling in many situations, says Pearl. The VG-1450 features the "Philharmonic" snare bed that is totally flat within the width of the snare.

Tube lugs, die cast hoops, and stunning Smoke Flake sparkle lacquer finish add the finishing touches to this snare drum.
