Pearl 13x11inch Competitor High Tension Marching Snare Pure White

The Pearl Competitor High Tension Marching Snare brings professional–grade features to marching bands without breaking the budget. This 13" x 11" model in Pure White showcases Pearl’s commitment to accessible quality, offering drummers the performance characteristics they need for competitive marching applications.

Built around a redesigned framework, the CMSX series incorporates many premium elements found in Pearl’s FFX Series drums. The free–floating 6–ply shell works in conjunction with an aluminium edge ring that removes all batter head tension from the shell itself, allowing for optimal resonance and projection. Case hardened tension rods provide even head tension distribution, ensuring precise tuning consistency across the drum surface.

Practical design elements enhance both performance and durability in demanding marching environments. The bottom hoop includes an integrated snare guard for protection during transport and performance, while synthetic gut snares provide dynamic sensitivity through the lever–activated strainer system. Available in both Black and White covered finishes, this 13" model weighs 12.9lbs, making it manageable for extended marching sessions while maintaining the robust construction required for high–tension applications.
