Re-introducing Acrolite In Its Original Splendor, The Ludwig Acro Snare Drum In Brushed Brass - 6.5"X14"

Introducing a new era of Acrolite snare drums. Originally introduced in 1964, the Ludwig Acrolite snare drum was developed as a student-level Aluminum snare drum. It has gained prominence over the last 50+ years for its professional-level build standards and performance. The Acro Series is the next chapter of the Acrolite legacy

The Sound Of Brass

The Acro Brass performs with a dark timbre, high sensitivity, and great projection. A very versatile snare that can position itself into almost any setting and head combination with exceptional performance. They feature Ludwigs 1-pc seamless USA-made phonic shell in a brushed finish. Adopting the format of the elusive NYC Board of Ed. 6.5x14 Acrolite of 60’s/70’s, these drums feature a 10-twin lugs format for well-balanced tone and projection.
