Pearl StaveCraft Snare Drum - 14 x 5 inch - Makha
5" x 14" Makha Wood Snare Drum with 1" Shell and Die-cast Hoops - Natural Makha w/ Thai Oak Inserts
Built from a Solid Inch of Dowel-joined Exotic Makha
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. At Sweetwater, we're pleased to report that 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.
Dado-Loc Shell Construction
25mm tropical makha shell
From rock to pop, the snare drum is one instrument where more mass almost always equals better performance. And in this way, the Pearl StaveCraft snare doesn't break from the mold. Its inch-thick shell is built from dual levels of dowel-joined makha wood staves — a process which Pearl calls Dado-Loc — to deliver impressive focus, dryness, body, and depth. The StaveCraft's added shell thickness allows the bearing edges and snare beds to be meticulously shaped for maximum performance in a live or session setting.
Masterworks Hardware
MasterCast hoops
MasterCast hoops, Pearl's signature die-cast hoops, give the StaveCraft snare a hi-fi focused tone that particularly shines under close mics — on a stage or in the studio. In addition to their top-tier tonal properties, Pearl's ultra-rigid MasterCast hoops help the StaveCraft snare achieve greater levels of durability and stability than traditional hoop types.
STL Swivel Tube Lugs
The StaveCraft's low-contact STL Swivel Tube Lugs allow the shell to vibrate freely for maximum resonance. These lugs impart a timeless boutique look while at the same time enhancing projection and reducing overring.
SR-150 Click-lock Strainer
"Smooth" doesn't begin to describe the piston-slider action of the StaveCraft's SR-150 snare system. Its Gladstone-style throw give you clean, quiet performance for engaging and tenoring snares on the quick. And its internal "C"-shaped nylon clip prevents the throw from slipping in the heat of a performance, even under heavy stress. Take it from drummers at Sweetwater: if you're looking for an uncommon snare that sounds as good as it looks and holds its ground mid-song, the StaveCraft snare drum really is the whole picture.
