I bought these snare a few days ago,and I have never seen before something like that.The shell,the lugs,everything pearl MIT from 80-es, 14x6,5',but snare mechanism copy of Tama king Beat(Imperialstar)snares.Any idea are there Pearl snare drums with Pearl badge and snare mechanism like this one?
Pearl-Tama stencil?

Mikey said it all.
My best guess: a NewSound snare drum. They liked to mix Pearl style hardware parts with Tama style ones, so mainly their drums looked in-between.
