Pearl PTD1612 16x12 Pipe Band Series Tenor Drum
Marvelous construction
The construction of the pieces is absolutely marvelous. A 4 ply, 5mm, 100% maple shell and a 4 ply, 5mm, 100% maple reinforcement ring provide unbelievable quality of sound. The inside shell is non-lacquered, allowing for the sound to remain pure and the response to be maximum. Finally, the 2.3mm steel Super Hoop II withstands any amount of tension that could possibly be needed.
Variety of finishes
These drums also come in a variety of finishes. The available colors are White, Sequoia Red, Black Mist, Teal Blue, and Emerald Mist.
Top of the line, not too much dime
If you are hoping to land a top of the line tenor drum and not looking to pay a fortune for it, this is the drum for you.
