A double-bass drum monster of unmatched value for your hard-earned bucks.

The Pearl VX Double Bass Shell Pack includes a pair of 22" x 18" kick drums, 10" x 8", 12" x 9" and 13" x 10" toms, 14" x 14" and 16" x 16" floor toms, and a 14" x 5-1/2" snare drum.

The Pearl VX Drums are constructed with 2 very different drum shell thicknesses: a 6-ply rack tom and 8-ply bass drum and floor tom, for incredibly balanced sound. Lower frequencies require greater energy to project equally to match the higher frequencies produced by smaller drums. The Pearl VX unique 6/8 technology makes this possible.

Pearl's 60 years of acoustic drum research has proven that the interior plies of the drum shell are the key influence to the overall sonic characteristic of the drum. The Pearl VX Drum Series exploits this knowledge to the fullest by using 2 unique shell recipes of birch and basswood. Birch offers a resilient tightly bound network of cells that tend to accelerate rebounding sound waves making it perfect where mid-range to high frequencies are desired. Basswood provides a slightly softer cellulose composition, which tends to slow the sound waves, thus promoting mid-range to low-frequency response. Adjusting the overall balance of one ingredient to the other allows a fine-tuning of frequency response much like Pearl's Reference Drums.

Pearl SST Drum Shell Design
Pearl VX drums offer a sonically advanced recipe of strategically arranged plies of premium wood to maximize frequency response in every component. As with all Pearl drums, each shell is formed using Pearl's SST construction process that uses extreme heat, precision-cut scarf joints, Pearl's proprietary Acoustiglue, and over 1000 lbs of hydraulic pressure to create the ultimate acoustic air chamber.

Pearl VX Snare Drums
VX Snares offer Pearl's legendary SensiTone snare drums that discerning drummers have been choosing for years. As the name implies these Pearl drums provide extreme sensitivity combined with amazing tone and clarity. Their 5-1/2" steel drum shell project extreme volume with articulate response for dynamic power and cut.
