Fusing reliability and flexibility for today’s demanding gigging environment, Pearl’s Modern Utility snare drums are no-nonsense, well-appointed snare drums priced with the active working player in mind.

The 13″x5″ offers the tight, cracking pop of a piccolo with a more full and fevered snare response.

Vital instruments tailored to make the gig great, Modern Utility’s five snare models each feature a 6-ply/5.4mm all Maple SST shell.

Well-appointed with our CL Bridge Lug and smooth SR-700 strainer, each Modern Utility snare is priced to allow the active working player an expanded voice, is flexible enough to add to any set-up, and strong enough to stand up to constant play.
