Drawing from two years of research and artist testing, Pearl presents Sonic-Select Shell Recipes: five distinct, extensively tested drum formulas each fine-tuned for their given performance application.
By filtering the nearly-endless array of custom options in the Masterworks spectrum down to specific shell, edge, and hardware fusions, each recipe creates a truly unique sonic signature; clearly defining the Masterworks custom drum experience for the discerning professional.

Masterworks Series Sonic Select Shell Recipe: STUDIO
SHELL
EvenPly-Six Maple/Gumwood – A thin combination of a hard exterior with milder tonewood, Studio’s shell is designed to vibrate freely for explosive mid-to-low range warmth.
EDGE
Outer 60° – Helps the thinner shell speak with brightness and power without sounding harsh.
HARDWARE
MasterCast Hoops – Gives each drum added weight for tonal body, and increases volume in each stroke, particularly in rim-shot hits and high-velocity play.
LUGS
CL Bridge Lugs are a Pearl staple. The CL bridge lug gives the drum a classic look and contacts the shell in separate points for the right amount of vibration control.
Masterworks Series Sonic Select Shell Recipe: HERITAGE
SHELL
4-ply Maple / Mahogany w/ 4-ply Maple Reinforcement Rings – Responds like the rumble of a classic roadster; a classic combination of mid-range projection and boosted low-end thunder.
EDGE
Outer 45° – Traditional edge draws added projection and resonance in this darker-toned shell.
HARDWARE
FatTone Hoops – Lighter in weight but never lacking in rigidity. Respond similarly to the original “stick-chopper” of the vintage era with added tuning stability. Excellent for drawing extended sustain.
LUGS
STL Swivel Lugs have less direct shell contact than any other Pearl lug. This little wonder features a pivoting brass tension casing that guarantees even tuning and reduced resistance to shell vibration.

SHELL
EvenPly-Six Birch/Gum/Birch with 4-ply Maple Reinforcement Rings. 8-ply Snare Drums – Perfectly captures each stroke with articulate high-volume punch and quick, even decay.
EDGE
Rounded 45° with Fully Round Edge on bass drums. Standard 45° on Snares – Helps boost low-end frequency with increased shell contact along the head collar. Bass drums feature subdued sustain and maximized low-end power.
HARDWARE
2.3mm SuperHoop II – Made to withstand heavy play without an undue limit on the performance across the tuning range.
LUGS
STL Swivel Tube Lugs have a pivoting tension casing that increases projection and reduces unwanted overtones in shell resonance.
