The Pearl Masters Maple Complete is a refined representation of the 25 year history of the Masters series. Pearl set out to make a slightly thinner shell in the MCT series. The 6 Ply Maple shells are cross-laminated. This will increase the tone and total resonance of the shell without sacrificing shell strength. The hardware used on the Masters MCT series was chosen for sound and road-worthy durability. Such touches include SP30 spurs and LB40 floor tom legs. The insulated die-cast bass drum claws and bridge-style CL lugs were all chosen to reduce shell contact and improve shell performance. Premium Shell: Cross-laminated EvenPly Six North American Maple. Enhanced Tonel: Pearl's exclusive SST shell process increases resonance. Crisp Attackl: 45° bearing edge adds attack through minimal contact. HARDWARE: RUGGED, RELIABLE, AND REFINED. Masters Maple Complete's total sound is enhanced by strong hardware elements and is designed to hold tuning under heavy play without inhibiting shell resonance. OptiMount Suspensionl: Solid four-point tom suspension for optimum shell resonance. CL Bridge Lugsl: Classic minimal contact lugs with precise vibration control. Superhoop IIl: 2.3mm triple-flanged hoops for tuning integrity and projection. UNPARALLELED SOUND AND VALUEl: All Maple Shell for fat, centered articulation and open tonal resonance. CL Bridge Lugs (CL100 (Toms) - CL250 (Bass Drum). Classic low-contact bridge lug for maximum resonance.
