Product Description
This is a UNICORN. Get it while you can...
This is a special one! Ludwig has released a very limited run of their iconic 14x6.5 Black Beauty snare drum in an elegant satin black nickel finish, adorned with nickel-plated tube lugs, single-flanged hoops, P88 throwoff, P35 butt plate, and a Limited Edition badge. Only 140 of these models will be produced, so don't hesitate to get your hands – and sticks! – on this rare gem!
To many, Ludwig is the most recognizable name in percussion purely because of one drum - the legendary Black Beauty Snare Drum. The seamless 1.2mm brass shell is machine drawn and spun into a seamless beaded drum before being finished with gorgeous black nickel plating. The shell speaks with an unmistakable round metallic tone. Tune it up high for a clean, piercing crack. Tune it loose and low for a fat, swampy backbeat. For over 80 years, this snare drum has been an industry standard. Now is the perfect time to own an American classic!
