7-Ply Maple Shell for Balanced Tonality

This Ludwig snare is constructed with a 7-ply, 6 mm maple shell formulated to provide optimal resonance and tonality. The center core is sandwiched between inner and outer plies using Ludwig´s proprietary RFST molding technology. This ensures even curing across the entire drum for consistent sound and performance.

45-Degree Bearing Edges for Wide Tuning Range

The bearing edges on this Classic Maple snare are cut to a 45-degree angle, which is critical for achieving a wide tuning range and maximum sustain. This edge profile allows you to fine-tune the drum´s sound to suit your preferences and playing style. The edges are hand-sanded for a smooth, even surface that enables effortless head seating. You´ll appreciate the control and customization enabled by the 45-degree bearing edge.

Triple-Flanged Hoops and Vintage Snare Wires for Articulation

This Ludwig snare comes equipped with 2.3 mm triple-flanged hoops for solid rimshots and improved tuning stability. Combined with the 18-strand vintage snare wires, you get crisp, balanced articulation and snare response. The wires are fully adjustable too thanks to the P88 throw-off. As a drummer, you´ll love the articulate sound and dialed-in snare response this drum delivers.
