Tasteful musicality and powerful groove, the "trademarks" of Steve Ferrone's style...that's why he's the "first call" for superstars such as Eric Clapton, Tom Petty, and Anita Baker to name a few.

His signature snare drum, the SF-1465 Steve Ferrone Signature Snare Drum by Pearl, is a reflection of the maestro's playing style: tasteful and elegant yet powerful on demand.

The heart of the SF-1465 is its precision-formed brass shell, plated in lustrous black nickel, with center bead for strength and enhanced high-frequency projection. Brass tube lugs complement the beauty of the shell and allow unrestricted vibration for superb resonance and tone. The "ball-ends" of the lugs are gold plated with contrasting chrome-plated tubes. All the tension rods have been up-graded to machined Stainless steel for precise precision tuning action. Gold plated SuperHoop II triple flanged hoops and the road proven SR-017 vertical-pull strainer with gold plated accents round out the sum of the SF-1465's superb components.

The total effect is stunning, making the Steve Ferrone Signature one the most beautiful drums ever produced.

According to Steve Ferrone, "I used to bring two or three snare drums to sessions, but now I only need one, the Steve Ferrone Signature Snare Drum. It's my secret weapon. The sound is perfect and sessions happen without a hitch. The last engineer even commented that this was the best snare drum he'd ever heard.

This is truly one fantastic sounding snare drum, if you haven't played one I urge you to give it a try at your local Pearl Authorized Dealer.
