Ludwig Supraphonic Chrome Over Brass Snare Drum – Vintage 1959-61 Reissue
This 14x6.5 Supraphonic snare drum recreates the iconic "Super Ludwig" brass drum that defined the golden age of studio and live percussion. Built with a 1.2mm chrome-plated seamless brass shell, it delivers the cutting, articulate tone and bright resonance that made the original legendary. The reissue features 10 Imperial lugs, a blue/olive Ludwig badge, and a P88AC throw-off mechanism—all hallmarks of the 1959-1961 design.
B-stock drums are factory certified as structurally sound: shells are round, strainers engage properly, and tension rods thread straight. They may exhibit minor cosmetic wear including light plating marks, handling scuffs, or signs of demo use. All cosmetic imperfections are as-is; structural integrity is guaranteed, but aesthetic flaws are not covered under warranty. These drums deliver full vintage performance at a value price.
