Pearl Drums are where it's at!!! Immaculate shell construction, meticulous hardware design, pristine finishes, and beautifully gorgeous sound! The ultimate "church" drums in my honest opinion. I'm in the process of getting a Masterworks currently. Can't wait!!!
No matter the price point, Pearl puts out a quality product. That’s why they are at the top every year. Great sound, easy to tune, stays in tune, great looking finishes in every series. I have a Session Studio Select snare in Ice Blue Oyster I got for my birthday last year. I will eventually get the whole kit in that finish. Love Pearl Drums. Always have.
Just bought myself a Pearl Masters Complete All Maple in Matte Black as and it's without a doubt the best sounding, best feeling work-horse of a kit I've ever owned. I've done all the custom kits, all the boutique companies and styles and plenty of other production kits from other companies and I've just never been able to find the quality, sound and feel like Pearl has. So pleased with it. Oh and I finally got me some Demon-Drives. Lol. Also incredible hardware..
I got a Pearl Masters Matte Blacke kit along the way. I'll have you know, this video was a huge selling piece for me.....this kit sounds fantastic and its a great price point. Can't wait till it arrives.
The best description of a drum kit I've ever heard. So insightful and this cat can groove! Where's my muscle car with an apple pie in the passenger seat?
Wow. Just wow. My brother from another mother. So deep, warm, round, colorful and tone that lasts for days. And that kick....woowoo. God bless you my friend.
There is something about that sound that's just great. It has the perfect blend of vintage round and warm sound with modern punch. Vintage sounding drums with round-over bearing edges lack punch; modern super-thick/sharp shells lack decay. Those are the absolute perfect blend of both.
Dude is killing it. Just straight slaying man he's good AND on top of that the way those toms (and snares for that matter) are tuned...are you kidding me they sound beyond amazing. I wish I could tune my drums to sound like that!!
This is 4 years old...but its the first time Ive ever heard him speak. He seems like a real nice guy. Very articulate and to the point as well. And great drummer.
...and that's why I'm a Pearl guy! And I will always be like that!! This kit sounds amazing (even without all that production). Calvin Rodgers, you're a machine man!!!
I've been a Tama man with sabian cymbals for 20 + years,but that kit sounds Fkn Amazing!! If i was to ever convert,that kit would be the 1 to do it! Thoroughly impressed with the kit,and ofcourse the man playing them!!
Incredible clip....Calvin is a monster player....really lays into the drum..which i dig. its what i love about Pearl...just a sweet workhorse brand that your not afraid to beat the bjeezuz out of.
Love the sound of these drums!! BTW you don’t have to believe me but if you want to know it is tuned using the B Minor arpeggio, the floor tom is tuned in B of the lower octave, the 12 tom is in D, the 10 tom is in F# and finally the 8 tom is in B of the upper octave. Almost any drum with good open thin heads back and front and well tuned using an arpeggio will sound very very good. Try if if you dare jaja...
Those Pearl drums sound explosive! I was recently at Memphis Drum Shop on a Pearl kit and it blew my mind. Cool playing dude and fantastic drums! All the best, David Curtis
Not to offend any brand. Though I don't own a Pearl kit myself, all of them that I've played really really sounded great, and where tuned so easily. And the hardware is amazing as well.
Its time for Pearl to make a video showcasing POWER TOMS. We are also part of the drumming community. Every drum video online is 8x7, 10x7, 12x8...no variety. Its time to represent all drummers. Thank you.
I reckon 8x7, 10x7, 12x8 sounds friggen mint tho. If you want power tom videos, why not search up some? There's bound the be some. I aint a fan of big bulky toms personally tho, so I wouldn't know but there seems to be a bit of everything around these days
What a sound!!Pearl defintely sounds the best of all asian companies,at least for my taste.And Calvin is killin' as always!And this video came a day or two too late,as I ordered dw performance series.If i didn't,I'd ordered this drums.
I love the sound. I am picking up a Master's shell pack in Bombay Gold. please tell me what tunings were used and how you tuned them. I have a tune bot if you know the exact tuning if not please tell me how you tuned them to get that sound. awesome drumming and amazing sound reproduction the mix is amazing I am trying truly inspired thank you for this video
shoot I am buying this kit just because CRod made them sound so dang on good and what a sales pitch... he should get some commission money for this one.
That 8" tom is the cure to all the worlds problems
Preach!
Yes bro💯
The best drums in the world. The best hardware, and accesories for a drummer. Thanks PEARL.
This is ( in my opinion ) the most honest and professional video from Pearl ! Thank you Mr. Rogers for this amazing showcase !
Man heard this demo and went and bought the drum set thanks C-Rod
Yes Calvin, Pearl is the best reason to play drums. The best drum maker in the world.
Agreed!!!!
Best drum kit for the money for sure. I love everything about Pearl drums.

Never thought I would find the answer to the life long question of what will bring a grown man to tears. It's that snare
Thank you Mr Rogers for returning back to pearl masters kits it's all the best more reason to play drums welcome home
It's great to see you playing, again. It looks like you have fully recovered. God bless, you.
Finally. A production where you can here the tonality of the drums! Nice job!!!
The best description of a drum kit I've ever heard. So insightful and this cat can groove! Where's my muscle car with an apple pie in the passenger seat?
FROFISIONAL WORK OF THE DRUMMER EXCELLENT ENERGY IN MOTION

I've been a Tama man with sabian cymbals for 20 + years,but that kit sounds Fkn Amazing!! If i was to ever convert,that kit would be the 1 to do it! Thoroughly impressed with the kit,and ofcourse the man playing them!!
I'm a proud owner of this kit as a 3-piece and in the same Vermillion Sparkle finish!
Incredible clip....Calvin is a monster player....really lays into the drum..which i dig. its what i love about Pearl...just a sweet workhorse brand that your not afraid to beat the bjeezuz out of.

woooohhhh these drums sounds huge!! super fat tone!
joh the fluidity is sick
Great review, Calvin!
what a Stunning kit! I would by one in a heart beat! :D
Which skins is he using on the toms? Remo emperor clear batter, ambassador reso's? Ambassador on the snare?
Call it post production... but I don´t believe I´ve ever heard such a level of sound on any drum video... the tunning is just delicious...
Whats crazy is he knows how to mix his own drums...he knows his frequencies in and out.
My dream drumset 😍
That muscle car analogy was just perfect
Floor tom is epic. So is the 8 inch tom.
totally grand. audibly and visually
Sweet. What is the thickness of the shells? Cm? I’m looking for very thick heavy shell drums. Pls recommend. Thnx brother ❤
That snare sounds beautiful 😭
That is one amazing sales video.. damn. Can you please tell me something about the microphones and mix of the drums in this video? Sounds stunning.
My man's wearing a coat and killin it. Imagine how much more he can do when he takes that coat off!!! AWESOME drummer and is doing it for the LORD!!!!
This guy plays perfectly....wow..
That's fantastic
Yeah! Luv this so much :D
I think Todd Sucherman plays these live and they sound amazing also
Are you using moongel on your snare kits?
what heads are you using for toms and bass?
That floor tom makes my floor shake. 😳
I love the sound. I am picking up a Master's shell pack in Bombay Gold. please tell me what tunings were used and how you tuned them. I have a tune bot if you know the exact tuning if not please tell me how you tuned them to get that sound. awesome drumming and amazing sound reproduction the mix is amazing I am trying truly inspired thank you for this video
Drop Calvin a message on his Twitter profile twitter.com/CalvinR_Rodgers as I'm sure he'd give you the best answer.
