Pearl Reference One Tom 13x9 w/Standard R2 Mount Red Burst Stripe

Introducing Reference One: The Pearl Sound Reimagined, Redefined, and Refined

By leveraging specific woods, shell thicknesses, and bearing edges exactly where they are most sonically beneficial within a drum set, Pearl's Reference Series originated the modern hybrid drum concept. Building upon this recipe and adding revolutionary enhancements in mounting and shell hardware, Pearl takes the hybrid drum concept to new, unprecedented heights. Every element of each drum in the Reference One drum set's construction is fine-tuned to deliver optimal performance, from the wood type and thickness of each shell to the bearing edge. Delivering the best elements from Pearl's historic Reference and Reference Pure Series drums, its reduced-thickness EvenPly shells are fitted with MasterCast Die-Cast hoops, for a radical combination sustain and attack.
