These shells have some serious projection due to their thicker design. As a tonewood, birch provides a bright, articulate tone with an impressive level of attack. This sound is perfect for a range of styles in a recording or performance environment.
Reliable and durable hardware
The hardware included on the Artist shell pack is inspired by Premier’s past designs. Each piece of hardware is designed specifically to enhance the sound quality and durability of the shell. The restyled low-mass lugs boast a unique aesthetical characteristic that exudes class and quality. When paired with the ISO suspension mounting system, these lugs allow the shells to resonate freely, improving the overall tone, resonance, and performance.

The rack toms are also fixed to the bass drum for maximum playing stability, no matter how dynamic your performance may be.
