PDP Celebrates 25th Anniversary with Three New Concept Series Snare Drums

Pacific Drums and Percussion (PDP) celebrates its 25th Anniversary with the addition of three new snares to its award-winning Concept Series. New to the series are the Natural Satin Brushed Aluminum, Brass, and Copper snare drums.

The PDP brand was founded in 1999 by Drum Workshop Inc. (DW) to provide boutique-inspired, player-friendly drums, pedals, and hardware with best-in-class build-quality to more drummers around the world. Since its inception, the accessible brand has expanded to include the award-winning Concept Series drums, hardware, and accessories.

Each of the new, highly responsive, 6.5×14” Concept Series snares have a rolled and double-beaded 1.2mm shell. They are fitted with chrome hardware which includes PDP’s stylish dual turrets lugs and DW’s high-end MAG throw-off™, True-Pitch™ tension rods, and Remo drumheads. The classy brushed exterior gives a vintage-style satin appearance that looks great under stage lights.

The light-weight Natural Satin Brushed Aluminum snare offers a unique sonic experience with its round attack, sparkling treble, and dry resonance. The louder Natural Satin Brushed Brass snare produces a heavier, fatter attack, with a bright, sharp crack and mellow overtones. The Natural Satin Brushed Copper snare offers a cleaner, darker sound, which has plenty of low-end emphasis and an organic warmth.
