Ludwig Classic Maple LS403XXWA 6.5″x14″ Snare Drum, White Abalone

Limited-Edition White Abalone Finish

The Ludwig Classic Maple limited-edition snare drum sports a gorgeous white abalone finish, adding flair to this already impressive drum. With its 7-ply maple shell and proprietary RFST molding process, the Classic Maple snare provides stellar tonal balance and resonance. The 45 degree bearing edges allow for a wide tuning range and maximum sustain. To top it off, the triple-flanged hoops and vintage snare wires deliver crisp, balanced articulation. This snare is built for discerning drummers who want both visual appeal and top-notch performance. 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. The result is a snare with balanced tonality that blends nicely into any musical situation, from rock to jazz and beyond. The maple shell gives you a versatile drum that always delivers.

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.
