This Cast Aluminum Snare Gives You Warmth and Great Volume!

The Pearl UCA1450 Ultracast 14"x5" aluminum snare drum gives you both full-bodied tone plus plenty of crack and volume, allowing you to cut through and sound great doing it. Using a thick (3mm) cast aluminum shell, the UCA1450 Ultracast is one of the thickest metal drums out there. Because it's cast, the aluminum shell stays true and gives you very precise bearing edges. Its SuperHoop II hoops and precision lugs provide very accurate and consistent tuning. Call your Sales Engineer today and check out the UCA1450 Ultracast snare!



UCA1450 Ultracast 14"x5" Aluminum Snare at a Glance:
  • Thick cast aluminum gives you a full-bodied tone
  • Better, more consistent tuning and head seating
  • World-class drum products for a wide spectrum of world-class players

Thick cast aluminum gives you a full-bodied tone
The UltraCast is Pearl's exclusive precision-milled, cast aluminum shell snare drum. At 3mm thick, this is one of the thickest metal drums you'll find. Aluminum is a relatively soft metal, and provides the warm, round, full bodied tone of a wood shell snare. However, it also possesses the crack, volume and projection provided by a metal snare.

Better, more consistent tuning and head seating
Since UltraCast is a milled cast aluminum shell, its bearing edges are precision-cut and perfect every time. This provides ease of tuning and perfect head seating around the entire circumference of the drum.

World-class drum products for a wide spectrum of world-class players
From rock to funk, country to punk, Latin, world music, and beyond, Pearl drum products are played by the best. Artists such as Omar Hakim, Frank Vilardi, Chad Smith, Tico Torres, Stanley Randolph, Billy Thomas, and many, many more choose Pearl drums to showcase their world-class talents. Whether you're a touring pro or a beginning player, Pearl has drums to suit you. Call your Sweetwater Sales Engineer and find out more about the Pearl products we carry.

Sweetwater Advice

AJ Becerra
This is by far the most versatile snare I have ever heard! It has the crack and power of a steel shell snare with the warmth and tone of a wood shell. I especially like its tuning capabilities because you can tune it down low to get a full bodied thump or crank it high to get teeth shattering rimshots. This may be the last snare you will ever buy!

Our Customers Say...

My Sales Engineer is the best. If I need it tomorrow, I have it tomorrow. He makes sure everything is in order and that I'm set up right. I've spent a lot of money at other places, too, but I don't remember them calling me to make sure everything's okay.
