The Sensitones are truly sleeper drums. And they're so reasonably priced compared to other offerings that have essentially the same components. A great value for anyone looking to get into a pro-sounding snare for hobbyist prices.

Best video ever comparing the three different shell materials! My takeaway was that the 14x5 brass shell has the brightness off steel, the controlled sound of aluminum, and yet retains the rich complexity of brass. That was my overall favorite for general purpose playing. I am now eager to get one of each to have more options available to serve the different music styles I play. Thank you for the video. It had a huge impact on me by building on concepts that I was already intimately familiar with. Sensitones are highly underrated. Extremely musical snares!
I got my first sensitone when it came with a kit from Pearl I ordered. I didn’t have high hopes for it. It came with the kit so figured it would stay on my teaching set. When I played it the first time it went on every gig I had for a long time. Every time a student said they wanted a new snare or an upgrade I always sent them to the sensitones first because the price to performance couldn’t be touched.
I agree. I don't really need another snare, but the 5" aluminum is just too good (at the price) to pass up, I think. Amazing price points with these drums ...
@@jasonb2180 The Ludwig Supraphonic and the Acrolites are very beautiful snare drums but so are all of these Pearl Sensitone snares. I am planning on buying a Pearl Sensitone aluminum because they are much more cheaper and to me they sound just as good as the Ludwig Supraphonics or the Acrolites.
@@Azarable they're also nearly indestructible, much tougher & more roadworthy than ludwigs. the 5.5" aluminium is ridiculously good. if you can find one, the yamaha sd-3455/3465 are great too.
Thank you for that great video. And also thanks for playing those snares at different dynamic level instead of bashing it! We can hear where you can go with those snare drum. I have the bass model in 5 x 14 and 6 1/2 x 14 (not the heritage model but the old model with bridge lug, super hoop) probably the same thing. These brass model are SO VERSATILE. As a session drummer like me, they still are my GO TO snare drum. Awesome video! The 3 models are GREAT!
Some of THE best snare drums ever made, in my professional opinion. My #1 go-to snare, since I bought it 21 years ago, is a Pearl Brass Sensitone 5.5 x 14. Really can't say enough about it. I too was sad when they discontinued them, but now, I see one of the Heritage snares in my near future. ;) They ALL sound great soooo..... decisions, decisions. Great demo as usual Shane. :)
as a gigging drummer starting back in the 80s, pearl were always my favourite japanese brand. their hardware was a godsend cos it was cheap & just worked when all my expensive UK/US stuff broke all the time, then their bass/toms got superb when they brought out 'power' sizes (even the original cheapo pearl exports sounded fantastic if you put good skins on em, & you could just throw em in the back of the van without cases they were so tough lol), finally they came out with this range of idiot-proof workhorse snares. i mean really, how can you make that 5.5" aluminium sound bad ffs you'd have to be mental? if you been on the road much you know pearl don't let you down.
These are GREAT drums, probably the best I’ve played, for under 400$. I have the 5x14 nickel over brass Heritage Alloy Sensitone, I also have Supraphonics, Black Beauty’s, and Noble & Cooleys, I’ve had the Sensitone, for about a week and a half now, and I’m blown away by it! It does all the things!! If ur looking for a great snare drum, at a very reasonable price, I don’t think, that there is a better option, for the money. Pull the trigger on any one of these, especially the brass, u won’t be disappointed.
I can’t verify from personal experience, but I’ve heard it said that these are some of the only mainstream drums that even come close to competing with Ludwig in the snare game. The recordings seem to speak for themselves.
I have an early production 14x5,5 Sensitone brass snare with the same lugs as these in the video. The drum sounds always lower and punchier to the mics than to your ears. So its nice to crank it up with good playability and still have a rich deep tone.
Interesting little detail to mention: I own a sensitone elite (it's how they used to be named) brass snare, and not only were they 1.5 mm against current 1.0 mm, the current edition doesn't even have rubber insulation between lugs and the shell..gosh, I wonder how much did these cost saving decisions have saved them
A 5” bronze Sensitone has been my primary drum for around 15 years. Whether I bash it, tap it or brush it, I get a musical sound that works. The name is appropriate.
My wife bought me a Pearl Sensitone as a wedding gift back in 2001. Its not because she bought it for me that I feel I have to use it...I use it to this day because it sounds so fucking good! And I'm able to get "my" snare sound from it
I have a brass Sensitone I acquired years ago. It's one of the run with tube lugs, Mastercast diecast hoop and the black finish that turned out kinda green. Bonus: I have that very same bass drum and between the 18" Crystal Beat Bass and that brass sensitone, I can bring the heat no doubt. It's a fantastic drum and It sounds very close to this 5.5 brass Sensitone here.
I really like Pearl`s snares. I have the IP signature, a Sensitone Premium Bronze and now the Duoluxe. Love them just as much (or more!), than my Ludwigs and Gretsch.
@@hirotwo4676 It was for me ! But i had a discount on it so i paid the same like i would have for a Sensitone ! now i bought a Mapex Persuader .Super and not expensive ! Look around and follow your own heart !!
The Aluminum would be my pick. Because, Pearl has competition on the Brass, with the Ludwig Universal Brass series being significantly cheaper. And also probably the Pork Pie BOB too. But, the Aluminium Sensitone is at a really competitive price point. And just sounds great on recordings. Steel, not sure, I'd probably go for the Gretsch Brooklyn steel, since it would match a Gretsch USA kit.
I have a 14x5 purchased around 2008-2010. I have a few Pearl Snares and I do have to admit, I like this one the least out of all my snares due to its lack of tuning range.
The 14 by 6,5" steel has the same shell than the Ian Paice signature model, I think. Concerning the brass model, I would love to hear it against the mighty Ludwig BB.
i have a couple of Sensitone snares made in the last couple of years with tube lugs, amazing drums, anybody know if there is any difference between them and the new Heritage Alloy snares other than the name and the lugs?
I know you guys are a retailer of acoustic drums, but that intro was missing 808 drums. 🤔..was someone listening to 1992 Hip Hop while editing this video?
It appears the older models where Discontinued , so they brought them back with a Different Throw off and Tension lugs , On the Pearl site the only list the Heritage ones .
apparently there have always been two types pf Sensitone lines: The Sensitone and Sensitone Elite. The Elites had the Phosphor Bronze, Aluminum and the 1.5mm thick Brass. If you try looking up old Sensitone snares you'll notice that the names on the badge are different. They did the same thing in 2014 versions-- you had the Sensitone Heritage Alloy consisting of Steel, Aluminum and Brass, and the Sensitone Premiums consisting of the 1.5mm Patina Brass, Phosphor Bronze, Maple and African Mahogany.
I have a 14x5 aluminum sensitone. I challenge anyone, with their eyes closed, to hear the difference with a Ludwig Supraphonic. And the Pearl is $300 less...
My favourite snare is my Ludwig Black Magic: I have a BB as well, and a number of Sonors, and a recently acquired Tama... I want one of those aluminium Sensitones though, omg.
the 5.5" aluminium sensitone sits somewhere between the ludwig 400 & 5" acrolite tonally. it is in no way inferior to either tho & is better made than both. it's an absolute classic, zero doubt, tho it'd be nice if pearl did a chrome plated version too imo.
I had a brass version and didn´t like it very much (yeah, Im one of those guys). It did the job well but nothing else. But man, this steel model, that´s for me.
Damn I like them all.... must say I think my idea of low tuning is different . Shane is finding Forgiveness in a snare drum, ha, I think he feels guilty for buying those 3 Bubbinga Tama kits.
Thanks John! As for the tuning, these aren't "low" or "high" tunings per-say, more in the range of low-medium and high-medium. We feel like these tunings show the character of the drums well.
5.5" aluminium sensitone is a stone cold dead cert future classic. idiot-proof snare drum, imagine how hard you'd have to try to make it sound bad lol.
The 3 different drums are all the same ! and i mean first the Elite, Sensitone, and now heritage, there all the same, except the imperial lugs and cheaper throw off !
For a drum store selling drums that would be a killer move, am I right? Maybe they just try to sell you drums like a business does, wouldn't that be crazy?
Yup, that intro is a winner. Loved it.
Sensitoooonnne
The whistle beat..how great
@@drumcenternh I want to buy an aluminum Pearl Sensitone snare drum. I like the Ludwig Supraphonic snare drum but they are just too expensive.

dunno that they're sleepers, i been saying the 5" aluminium is a classic ever since it came out. it's ridiculously good.
@@papalegba6759 5" or 6,5"??
All sound very nice with either tuning. The Aluminum shells seem to have the best tone to my ears.

True. I‘ve got snare drums in my arsenal which costs 99$ and 1000$, it’s all about the character of the particular drum.

just as good was a 1980s tama superstar 6.5" maple i had, not as versatile as the gretsch but built like a tank & had a FAT rimshot, cut thru a rock/dance mix like butter. same model neil peart played on 'spirit of radio' but a deeper shell iirc? never had to use any head but a standard coated ambassador on it either, it just fkn testified every night without fail.
other drummers used to sneer at me for using a japanese snare back then but fk em cos it was a monster & a good backbeat is what earns your corn. so i always trusted my ears & watched how the audience reacted & that tama got em out their seats. so did my knackered old gretsch tbf lol!

I kinda liked the NOB 6.5 best. Surprised by that. I've never been a fan of pearl snares but these are great for the money.
Their mcx snares are killer
Very well done comparison video with the different mic setups. I wish Pearl would have chosen a different lug design.

What's the snare bed look like on these? Trying to hunt down a brass shell with enough of a snare bed for wirewound silk.
Were better with tube lugs or these?
So what's the difference between "mirror steel" and sensitone steel? difference in quality? Does it taste almost the same?

Hi....is there much different between those and copper?
Great video guys 🤙

The brass is like a much less expensive version of the Black Beauty…
It’s certainly warmer than the steel and aluminium..
how good is a maple shell?
