Hybrid Bearing Edges

[AL PERCIVAL]

Of course..... Did you pull that from a CZX or a Custom Z ?? ..... and Pearl should of finished those edges IMO... at least the same hue

There were 2 pairs of 24"s in stock from early 90's I couldn't believe it so I snagged them both!

BTW CZX do these hoops look familiar?

Thank you Al for the help!
Maybe this will also help other people who are looking for those lugs on 6" deep snares.

My pleasure!

And while I am at it, and don't want to bother my rep with even more questions, I hope you can answer that:
I want to to get a 14x6 snare drum, but also would like to have the STL lugs that are connected, like this:

This is indeed a 14x6 snare drum, but in the spare parts catalogue I haven't seen a mention of STL-60 lugs, as they would probably be called then.
Also, the new Matt Halpern snare just has the regular STL-55 lugs:

So I just need a clarification, if the lugs like on the first drum can be done for me as well.

Thanks in advance

On the first drum Masterworks Urban. In the pic, the lugs look to be STL55L/B swivel tube lugs for 5.5 and deeper snares.

Who knows...
like I said, maybe he read that DW patent and thought it meant nobody else can do hybrid bearing edges anymore?
I have no idea honestly how it's actually made sure for all kinds of companies to keep up with the latest patents in regards to what they are doing.

Well, with hindsight my wording seemed a bit wrong...
What I meant was just because it's late at night, I could get help from you guys from America, so I can just send him my finished order form tomorrow.
I don't want to tell his name, but he is a very nice and helpful guy.
I think it was likely just a misunderstanding from him about DWs patent.
But either way, I appreciate you all helping me out on this forum

yeah that's cool.. but my point is.. you have a choice of many people to deal with..

and more importantly..... why does this guy even have this in his head??...... why did he even go there??

How can you continue to use a "Rep" like that.... that doesn't even know the facts.. ??

Alright, thank you so much for clarifying, Al!
I was already wondering, because I also saw that Troy Wrights recent Masterworks kit came with the same bearing edges.
And really cool to get some insight into Dennis Chambers kit as well, he's a legend!
So one thing less to worry about

According to our Masterworks specialist Tom Storch, yes, this hybrid edge request can be done. I believe we did this for Dennis Chambers on one of his kits.

Thank you for your reply.
Of course the bearing edges themselves are all something Pearl offers, I am more talking about having different edges for top and bottom (fully rounded top, 45° bottom).
