Ludwig Black Beauty Snare Drum LB417 | 14 x 6.5"

 

The Black Beauty is the snare that Ludwig built their name on and has since been emulated, yet never quite matched. Its warm metallic tone is the heartbeat of professional performances worldwide. Crafted from a single sheet of brass that is drawn to a 1.2mm seamless shell, this process is so intricate and tricky that only a few are created each year. This drum is built with classic Black Beauty specs and 10 Imperial lugs and features a 1.2mm Seamless Brass Shell, Black Nickel Plating, 2.3mm Steel Triple Flanged Hoops, P88AC Throw Off, P35P Butt Plate, Ludwig Weather Master Medium Coated Head, and Ludwig Weather Master Clear Snare Side Head.
