The Pearl Free Floating Snare Drum FTBR-1450 is a 14" x 5" Free Floating Snare Drum, with a 1mm Brass Shell, and a Satin Natural finish. With the introduction of the Free Floating Snare 30 years ago, Pearl created a completely new, legendary concept, which completely forgoes the boring of holes into the shell for hardware components. Breath taking depth and unmistakable sounds are the result and the response from drummers around the world confirms the success and lasting impression of this unique concept; the Free Floating Snare Drums.
The newest version of the Free Floating Snare Drums, made of wood and metal in conventional sizes, are tailored to the demands of modern music styles and are optimally fit in form, size and thickness to the specific material. Pearl's Click Lock throw-off, which through its special design together with a nylon ring guarantees a secure hold and light, fast operation, are also equipped with the Free Floating snare drums. Premium cast hoops and Free Floating lugs perfect the concept. All of the elements of the Free Floating snare drums together make it possible for the shell to freely unfold its saturated and powerful sound spectrum.
