Description
In 1973, Pearl set a benchmark in the drumming world with the introduction of the clear see-through drum set, the Pearl Crystal Beat. A stunning combination of visual appeal and powerful sonic attack, Crystal Beat’s revolutionary transparent construction was moulded, not rolled, creating a strong acrylic drum system for a stronger, tour-ready percussive assault.
These shells may look thin but they pack a punch, without any of the annoying overtones you often get from thinner shells. These specially designed acrylic shells are focused, full of attack, have a great presence on stage and sit extremely well in a band mix.
Pearl Crystal Beat clear toms include the Opti-Mount suspension system to remove undue shell pressure and increase sustain. 1.6mm triple-flanged hoops offer just the right amount of attack without sacrificing tonal body.

The Shells
7mm thick, seamless, precision moulded acrylic shells provide a combo of stunning looks and full bodied power. A 45 degree bearing edge provides attack and sonic clarity. These shells will produce all the volume that a power player desires.
Shell Hardware
All of the hardware on Crystal Beat shells are designed to make the most of the characteristic power and volume of the acrylic shell. Pearl OptiMount four-point tom suspension mounts makes sure that the toms are held as free from resistance as possible. While the sleek CRLB lugs compliment the stunning looks of the kit.
