The Latest in Pearl's Proud Session Series of Drums

The Session Studio Select is the next step in Pearl's proud 20-year Session legacy. Shells in this series are built from Masters-grade hard birch with furniture-grade African mahogany for gorgeous tone and designer looks to match. Shells come crowned with Masterworks-inspired 60-degree outer bearing edges and SuperHoop IIs for a crisp attack and focused midrange to balance an enveloping low end. Session players will marvel at this lineup's pre-EQed tone, especially under close mics, while players and audiences of all backgrounds will be drawn to the Pearl Session Studio Select's breathtaking visuals. Available in several stunning lacquered and Delmar USA-wrapped finishes.

Masters-grade blended shells

The Session Studio Select features shell technology borrowed from the Masters series. Thin, resonant 5.4mm EvenPly-Six (6-ply) shells are comprised of 4-ply birch outers, for focus and cut live or in the studio, along with two inner plies of furniture-grade African mahogany for warmth, balance, and designer good looks that stare back at you from behind the kit.

Pearl Session: the session drummer's choice for 20 years

Session and studio drummers have depended on the Pearl Session series for over two decades. The Session Studio Select continues this proud heritage by building on more than 20 years of shell construction and finish innovations. For quality that translates to your projects, you can trust your reputation to the Pearl Session Studio Select series from Sweetwater.

Remo batter and reso heads

The Session Studio Select is ready for the scrutiny of the studio, thanks to a full complement of Remo heads. These include Pinstripe Clear tom heads and a Powerstroke kick batter, for time-honored tone that shines from under the studio mics.
