A solid inch of dowel-joined Makha wood gives this Pearl StaveCraft snare a body, focus, and output that rival its exotic looks and exceptional strength. The secret lies in a Pearl’s exclusive Dado-Loc technology. For this process, Pearl starts with two levels of painstakingly beveled Makha wood staves, a dense tropical hardwood regarded for its flame-like figuring of beautiful reddish-brown swirls. The staves are channeled and bonded together using custom tenons of pale Thai oak. Not only does this process give the StaveCraft’s shell interior a handsome dappled look a feat that can be seen clearly through its Remo USA CS Black Dot clear batter head but it enhances the overall strength of the shell by as much as 50%. The result is a snare that whispers and screams as if bored out from a single piece of material. The bonded shell is then lathed down to a precise 25mm (that’s nearly a full inch thick!) and crowned with pinpoint edges and A1 snare beds for unbelievable tone and expression. The Pearl StaveCraft Makha snare’s Masterworks-grade hardware appointments are just as impressive as its impeccable shell construction. Die-cast MasterCast hoops, low-contact STL Swivel Tube Lugs, and a Gladstone-style SR-150 throw off unite to give the StaveCraft Makha snare a look and play that beg to be experienced firsthand.
