Ludwig LB552RT Supraphonic Raw Bronze Snare Drum 14x6.5 w/Tube Lugs

Ludwig Supraphonic Raw Bronze Snare Drum – Warm Tone & Classic Craftsmanship

The Ludwig Supraphonic Bronze Snare Drum delivers a distinctive sonic character that bridges the gap between traditional wood and metal snare construction. Cast from bronze—a soft, resonant alloy traditionally favored in cymbal manufacturing—this 14x6.5 drum produces a warm, projective tone with exceptional clarity and sustain. The seamless raw bronze shell creates a round, resonant voice that cuts through without harshness, making it equally at home in studio sessions and live performance.

Built to Ludwig's exacting standards, this Supraphonic features professional-grade hardware and construction designed to withstand decades of playing. The raw finish showcases the natural character of the bronze, though patina variation is inherent to raw metals and will differ from drum to drum.
