Ludwig LB417T Black Beauty Snare Drum

zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Expertly crafted from a single sheet of brass, Ludwig's legendary Black Beauty offers superb crack and punch while maintaining an unmatched dynamic feel.

One of the primary reasons Ludwig is "The Most Famous Name On Drums" is the Ludwig Black Beauty Snare Drum. The drum is constructed of a single sheet of brass that is hydroformed into a seamless beaded shell. However, due to their truly unique and difficult manufacturing process, only a very limited number of Black Beauties are available each year from Ludwig USA.

A true American original, the Black Beauty provides a warm, round metallic tone that is often imitated, but never duplicated

The Tube lug has a classic look and allows for a slightly more open tone.
