Pearl Short Fuse Snare Drum 10x4.5 w/the Mount & Clamp!

Explosive Auxiliary Crack and Compact Versatility: Pearl Short Fuse 10" x 4.5" Snare Drum

6-Ply Poplar Shell with Included Tom Mount and Multi-Clamp

The Pearl Short Fuse Snare Drum (SFS10/C31) is an ultra-compact auxiliary effect snare engineered to deliver a sharp, cutting crack that pierces cleanly through any live mix or studio session. Built with a 6-ply, 7.5mm poplar shell measuring 10" in diameter by 4.5" in depth, this drum offers a tight, snappy pop with high-pitched resonance and fast decay, making it an ideal side snare for hip-hop, funk, pop, reggae, and electronic drum setups. Outfitted in a sleek Jet Black wrapped finish with chrome hardware, it comes complete with an integrated shell-mounted bracket and a heavy-duty multi-clamp, allowing drummers to mount it effortlessly off any existing cymbal stand or hi-hat stand without adding floor clutter.

Designed with single-ended low-mass lugs and 1.6mm triple-flanged steel hoops, the Short Fuse provides reliable, wide-ranging tuning stability whether cranked into aggressive timbale territory or tuned down for a fat, dry auxiliary backbeat. Its single-action quick-release snare strainer and single-sided wire design ensure crisp, articulate snare wire engagement, giving percussionists and kit players a versatile, budget-friendly secondary voice that integrates seamlessly into any acoustic or hybrid setup.
