Mapex Black Panther 14x6.5 Atomizer Snare Drum

Mapex BPNAL4651CN Black Panther Atomizer 14" Aluminum Snare Drum

The Atomizer brightens up the groove while keeping a deep character to the sound.

Focused, articulate, and brimming with dynamic potential, the Mapex Black Panther Atomizer snare drum is built for drummers who crave dry, responsive tone across a wide tuning range. At the heart of the Atomizer is a 2.0mm beaded aluminum shell—slightly undersized to allow freer vibration and enhanced projection. The result is a snare that’s just as comfortable in the studio as it is on stage, whether you're after tight articulation or loose, textured warmth.

Features:

• Size: 14" x 6.5"
• 2.0mm beaded aluminum shell for dry, crunchy articulation and controlled resonance
• Slightly undersized shell promotes dynamic response and head-shell synergy
• Extra-wide/extra-deep snare beds enhance snare wire sensitivity
• SONIClear bearing edges allow better head contact for improved tuning and deeper tone
• Triple-flanged Sonic Saver hoops provide rimshot power with stick-saving comfort
• Cylinder-drive dual-adjustment throw off delivers precision snare tensioning
• Mapex-branded Remo Ambassador X Coated batter head included

The Atomizer is a standout snare that handles modern performance demands with classic tonal character and exceptional clarity.
