[THE Ultimate Shell Snare Drums supervised by Takashi Numazawa]

"History has always been built on sounds that transcend the times.

"That" vintage sound from the 1930s to 1960s that everyone longs for, and the new sounds that are unique to the present that are born in each era... In order to create an all-around drum set that combines both these, I have used all of my experience and knowledge together with the staff at Pearl, and this may be the ultimate sound that can be thought of "right now."

THE ULTIMATE SHELL...The mahogany on the inside absorbs air vibrations softly and efficiently, and the maple on the outside resonates them at an extremely sharp speed, creating a bright and heavy sound.

And I think the finish, which is only made of an ultra-thin lacquer, accelerates that speed even further on the outside." by Takashi Numazawa



"The style of the 1960s, where poplar was sandwiched in the middle of a three-ply guitar, is not clear for what reason, but it must have contributed to the character of that sound.
I was simply amazed at how incredibly wonderful the resonance this produced.
The speed at which the sound rises from the stick hitting the head and resonates with the shell, and the magnitude of the sound that spreads is an amazing sound that I have never experienced before." - Hisashi Numazawa
