DRUMS

PEARL CRB524FP/C742 CRYSTAL BEAT KIT BLUE SAPPHIRE
and
PEARL DEMONATOR DOUBLE PEDAL

The Pearl Crystal Beat 22″ 4pc Shell Pack was born for the spotlight. Its striking, acrylic shells offer a transparent aesthetic like no other, with a singularly stunning tone to match. Their molded, fully seamless design imparts their tone with a deeper, fuller resonance to balance acrylic’s signature, aggressive attack. This non-rolled construction method also ensures the shells are as strong as can be – perfect for life on the road.

Demonator double bass drum pedals feature a lightweight design but are strong where it matters with a solid steel footplate making up the base of the pedal. Single chain drives are often seen as a weakness on a pedal but they do offer a direct feel that many drummers actually prefer. Double chains are sometimes more durable and consistent but this is really only a consideration if you’re a heavy player.
