Ludwig LB552R Supraphonic Raw Bronze Snare Drum – Premium 14x6.5 Percussion Instrument

The Ludwig Supraphonic Raw Bronze Snare Drum delivers the distinctive warmth and projection that made Ludwig's bronze models legendary among drummers. Crafted from bronze—a soft, resonant alloy traditionally used in cymbal manufacturing—this 14x6.5 snare bridges the tonal characteristics of wood and metal drums. The seamless raw bronze shell produces a round, full-bodied resonance with exceptional clarity and sustain, making it an ideal choice for players seeking a vintage American sound with modern playability.

Built with Ludwig's time-tested engineering, this snare combines classic design with reliable hardware. Whether you're recording, performing live, or expanding your kit's sonic palette, the Supraphonic Raw Bronze adapts to multiple musical contexts while maintaining its signature warm projection and dynamic range.

Finish Note: Raw bronze develops a natural patina that varies from drum to drum. Your instrument will have a unique appearance that differs from product photography. Variations in patina finish are not returnable or exchangeable.
