Pearl Percussion’s popular ‘Elite’ series hand-percussion instruments are usually offered with 100 percent aged oak shells, but this brand new series features an outer layer of mahogany fused with an inner layer of para wood – more commonly known as rubber wood. Para wood is used extensively in furniture manufacturing in Thailand, which just happens to be where Pearl’s Elite series is made. This adds a classy grain pattern to the insides of the shells and significantly increases volume and overall projection.
