The Premier Genista 18'' 3pc Birch Shell Pack is equally comfortable on-the-stage as it is in the rehearsal room, or the recording studio. Birch shells are easy to identify due to their bright articulate sound. Packed full of ''weight'' and ''punch'' they are significantly ''fatter'' and offer superior projection in comparison to maple shells. The sound of the toms are enhanced by the inclusion of Genista style lugs and 2.3mm triple-flanged hoops. Both features work in unison to increase the shell's sustain, making them an ideal choice for Pop, Rock and Jazz.
Offering an ideal amount of resonance and projection, the thick 7.2mm, 9-ply construction is the perfect choice for the Genista bass drum. It proves complementary to the brightness and attack emitted from the 5.6mm, 7-ply tom shells when struck. The bass drum's series-exclusive 8-lug design guarantees total control over its pitch when tuned.
By placing the toms on mounting clamps instead of the bass drum, they can be easily attached to a cymbal stand (not included). This design minimises the risk of undesirable resonance for a clear focussed sound. Influenced by the Genista's iconic lugs, the series' toms have been modified to accommodate the 3mm undersizing. The Genista's silver sparkle gloss lacquered finish and internally lacquered shells evokes a touch of class whilst also offering greater resistance to superficial damage.

Established in England, Premier has been an industry leader in drums and percussion since 1922. From household names like Keith Moon (The Who) and Chris Sharrock (Oasis, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds), to rising talent such as Sara Leigh Shaw (The Pearl Harts) and Haydn Evans (Sundara Karma), the number of high profile drummers proud to sit behind their kits appears seemingly infinite.
