Ludwig Bronze Beauty Snare Drum 14 x 6.5 in.

The Ludwig Bronze Beauty has developed a mysterious reputation over the years. Drums under this name have only been available for short periods of time, making them highly sought-after among collectors. Now, the Bronze Beauty has been resurrected with this new model, proudly crafted in Monroe, North Carolina. The warm, dark tone of bronze has been the centerpiece of cymbal-making for decades. The Bronze Beauty takes advantage of that sound profile, along with Ludwig's experience making its brass sibling, the Black Beauty—perhaps the most recognizable snare in the world. It's made of a seamless 1 mm bronze shell, plated in black nickel and topped with 2.3 mm steel hoops. It features a P88 strainer and P35 butt plate. And, of course, the Bronze Beauty is fitted with Ludwig's famous Weather Master heads.
