Medium-Depth Shells Reduce Weight for Comfortable Marching
The Pearl Finalist FMTB0234 marching tenor set features medium-depth "Mid-Cut" shells, an innovation that reduces weight without sacrificing tone. At just 5.4 mm thickness, the 6-ply birch shells are lightweight and easy to carry during your marching band's dynamic halftime routine.

Whether you're marching across the 50-yard line or maneuvering through complex drill patterns, these innovative Pearl tenor drums make a moving performance possible.
Maple Rings Add Punch and Projection
To enhance the birch shells' natural tone, Pearl adds maple reinforcement rings. The layered maple provides added depth and punch, allowing your tenor drums to project clearly to the audience. Maple's dense grain also boosts the shell's rigidity for consistent, crackling response. With the combination of birch and maple, the Pearl Finalist Marching Tenors deliver the power needed for drumlines to be heard over horns and percussion in an energetic stadium environment. The rich tonal character will allow your creative grooves and fills to shine.
Z-Plate Spacers Prevent Rattling
With the Pearl Finalist FMTB0234 marching tenor set, you never have to worry about rattling hardware ruining your performance. The Z-plate spacers provide a perfect and stable position for any tenor configuration. The spacers eliminate give or play between the drums, keeping your tones focused and rattle-free. With solid stability and no annoying buzzes, you can unleash complex rhythms with speed and confidence. Whether executing tricky crossovers or bringing the energy on a cadence, you'll sound ultra-tight.
SuperHoop II Rims Offer Lasting Durability
The Pearl Finalist Marching Tenors are equipped with 2.3 mm SuperHoop II rims for outstanding durability so you can count on consistent response season after season. The double-rolled steel hoops maintain roundness and resist warping or rusting, even with the most aggressive playing. Consistent tension translates to reliable rebound for intricate rhythmic parts. You'll never have to worry about dead, uneven tones right before a big performance. With SuperHoop II rims, these Pearl drums will hold up through intense weather, travel and your most powerful playing.
