Description

Ludwig Universal 14″ x 8″ Chrome Over Brass Snare Drum. With a full-size 14-inch head and an 8-inch shell, this snare leaves plenty of air around a backbeat. The extra depth extends the shell resonance and decay, while the diameter maintains the familiar breadth and tuning range of a main snare.

Shell and Sound:

The 1mm brass construction gives the long note a warm metallic centre and a bright front edge. A low tuning opens up the shell bloom without changing the basic pitch relationship set by the head.

Hardware and Response:

Triple-flanged hoops let the head ring more freely and give cross-sticks and rimshots a rounder edge than the die-cast model. Twenty snare-wire strands keep the sustained shell note anchored to a clear snare response.

  • 1mm all Brass shell- (black nickel-plated)
  • Chrome Triple Flange hoops
  • heavy-duty tube lugs
  • P88i throw-off
  • P35 butt plate
  • 20 strand snare wires
