The legendary Ludwig Black Beauty snare drum starts with a single sheet of brass. It's machine drawn and spun into a seamless beaded shell, then chrome plated to an exquisite finish. An American classic, the Black Beauty delivers a warm, fat, metallic tone that cuts through a thick mix like nothing else. Fitted with Ludwig's P88 Supraphonic strainer, the Black Beauty is super responsive, no matter how hard or soft you hit it. Due to a complex manufacturing process, they're not easy to make, so the Black Beauty is only available in limited quantities each year from Ludwig USA.
Ludwig Black Beauty Snare Drum Features:
- 6.5" x 14"
- P88 Supraphonic strainer
- Black chrome finish over brass shell
- Smooth shell with Imperial lugs
- Triple-flanged hoops
