Pearl's Concert Series Concert Toms offer a wide range of tuning and performance possibilities, suiting percussionists in the concert hall or on the football field.  Superb tone and excellent projection can be achieved from our 7 ply 100% Mahogany shells and extended depth.  Our newly redesigned low mass tension lugs and 1.6mm Steel Hoop extends shell resonance and offers accurate fine tuning.  Each tom is supported by its own independently adjustable tom arm offering limitless positioning possibilities.  Included with each pair of toms is our sturdy T-800 double tom stand.  Pearl Concert Series toms are available in pairs and are finished in a prestigious Midnight Black #46 covering. Current available sets: 8x6/8x8, 10x10/10x12, 11x13/12x14, and 14x15/14x16.

Philharmonic Concert Snare Drums
Pearl is proud to introduce the all new Philharmonic Concert Snare Drums, featuring the revolutionary Triad Silent Strainer System. These incredible drums represent state of the art design and craftsmanship, combined with groundbreaking innovation allowing the player unprecedented control over the tone, dynamics and performance of the instrument. A proprietary combination of three unique snare sets, using both graduated and even tensioning, offers seamless timbral overlapping and ultra-smooth dynamic transition, plus a greatly extended dynamic and sensitivity range. The new Triad Silent Strainer provides three individual tension adjusters allowing you to fine tune the optimum tension for each type of snare material, and a single global adjuster is used for overall tension. All snares can be effortlessly changed by simply loosening the adjuster and one drum key rod.

Pearl’s Philharmonic Concert Snare Drums are available in three different shell materials to compliment a wide variety of playing situations, and each offers a 5"X14" and a 6.5"X14" choice in size. The Philharmonic Maple drum (PHM) features a shell painstakingly hand formed from a single, 7.5mm thick ply of fully aged prime Maple. The Philharmonic Ply Maple drum (PHP) features a 7.5mm thick 6 ply Maple shell. The Philharmonic Cast Aluminum Shell Snare Drum (PHA) features a 3mm cast shell and offers a warmth and richness similar to wood, but with the increased brightness and attack characteristic of metal shell snare drums.

Symphonic Concert Snare Drums
Pearl's Symphonic Concert Snare Drums are the ultimate expression of excellence in concert quality snare drum design. Developed exclusively for the concert hall, these outstanding drums feature a 6 ply, 7.5mm thick, 100% aged Maple shell, formed by Pearl's patented Heat Compression Shell Molding System, finished in beautiful high gloss Antique Sunburst. Classic tube lugs with die cast hoops give this drum an unmistakable vintage look. But in sharp contrast to its classic visual is the state of the art precision and versatility of the finest snare system on the market today. Our Multi-Timbre Snare Strainer System features three separate adjustable throw-offs in one unit, controlling light cable, heavy cable and wire snares, in any combination, providing unbelievable control and endless sound options. Along with our Philharmonic Concert Snare Drums, no other snare drums on the market offer such a perfect combination of classic styling, supreme quality and craftsmanship, unsurpassed tonality, and the unprecedented control and versatility offered by the Multi-Timbre or Triad Silent Snare Systems.

Our Symphonic Concert Snare Drums are available in both 5.5"X14" and 6.5"X14" sizes. Both offer 10 tube style tension lugs, die cast hoops, Remo Renaissance batter heads, and the revolutionary Multi-Timbre Snare Strainer.

Adams Professional Series Timpani
Adams Professional Series Timpani feature parabolic shaped bowls or cambered shaped bowls that are seamlessly formed from a single piece of the finest copper and are suspended by an extremely strong contoured steel ring.  They offer a characteristic tonal balance, projection and sound quality that has become synonymous with Adams Timpani.  The pedal Mechanism is a superior balanced action system that insures a smooth non-stiff action, even under= the highest spring tension.  The spring mechanism is conveniently adjusted by an easily accessible tension knob on the base.  An extended range, extremely durable design, height/angle wheel adjustment and standard tuning gauge complete this truly innovative design. Professional Series timpani are available in Fiberglass, Smooth Copper, Hammered Copper, and Hammered Cambered Copper Bowls.

Adams Endurance Field Frames and Mallet Instruments
The Endurance Frame was designed specifically with the demands of outdoor performance in mind, offering extra large locking precision wheels, and sturdy oversized tube construction. The Endurance Frame easily navigates rough, uneven outdoor terrain and still can be perfectly suited to indoor concert events as well. Both ends of the Endurance Frame feature the renowned Adams height adjustment system, allowing you to effortlessly adjust the playing height of the instrument to fit any size player. An accessory bar runs the full length of the frame allowing you to add drums, bells, cymbals, and virtually any instrument that can be mounted using a standard hardware mount. This creates a multi-instrument percussion set-up that can easily expand as your needs change. The Adams accessory bar is completely square, providing a slip free mounting surface that will not creep or rotate, even under extremely heavy loads. Standard Pearl PC-50 and PC-10 Rack Clamps are used to mount all accessories to the bar, and the PC-10 accommodate standard 7/8" diameter pipes and smaller. The Adams Endurance Field Frame is easily the most sturdy, best designed, highly adjustable frame on the market today.

The Adams Endurance Field Frame is offered as standard equipment for the new AV-1F and AV-2F Vibraphones.  It is also available separately as an add on package for all other Adams Artist, Concert and Soloist Series Marimbas, 4.0 Concert and Soloist Xylophones, and the AV-1 Vibraphone.

Adams Chimes
Adams Chimes are considered by many to be the finest sounding, truly "in tune" Chimes available on the market today.  After many years of research Adams engineers have painstakingly perfected the optimum Brass alloy for the construction of tubular bells.  All Adams Chimes feature this proprietary Brass Alloy that produces an unmistakably beautiful tonal quality exclusive to Adams.  Adams Chimes are available in three distinct Series, Standard, Symphonic and Philharmonic, to meet a wide variety of needs and budgets.

Adams Symphonic Series Chimes are perfectly suited for most Marching Percussion needs and are available in 2 models, the BK-3003 1.5 octave set , and the exclusive BK-3000 1/2 octave extended range set.  They feature larger 1-1/2" diameter tubes to produce an extremely impressive tonal quality and are fully balanced, offering perfect intonation throughout.  The rack features two-way locking casters that when locked, will not roll or turn.  The rack also features a fully adjustable, direct foot dampening system to quickly eliminate any unwanted resonance.
