Ludwig Universal Brass Snare Drum

When Ludwig's Universal Series of snare drums first hit the scene in the 1920s, their wide-ranging sound and ease of use made them a mainstay among gigging and recording drummers of the time. With the Ludwig Universal Black Brass snare, a classic drum reemerges for a new generation of players, with a clear focus on sound quality and versatility. Its brass shell exudes a full-bodied warmth and a mellowness that blend perfectly in many applications, with triple-flanged hoops for a more open and flexible tone. Top-quality hardware throughout ensures each stroke rings through loud and clear, delivering a purer, more natural sound devoid of those pesky vibrations and other unwanted elements. Channel a century of lauded Ludwig tone with the Universal Black Brass Snare Drum!
