Ludwig LB416 14"" x 5.5"" Black Beauty Snare from Gear 4 Music

List Price: 649(GBP)

The Black Beauty Snare Drum is one of Ludwigs most well known items. The snare is constructed of a single sheet of brass that is machine drawn and spun into a seamless beaded shell then nickel plated with a beautiful finish. The warm round metallic tone is that of a true American original often imitated but never duplicated. Because of their unique and difficult manufacturing process only a limited number of Black Beauties becomes available each year from Ludwig.
