Description

Mapex Black Panther Nucleus 14″ x 5.5″ Maple/Walnut Snare Drum. The Nucleus has a full-size 14-inch backbeat but a responsive 5.5-inch chamber. Walnut in the middle of the maple shell adds an organic, slightly darker centre while the outer and inner maple keep the first hit defined.

Shell and Sound:

Eight plies make up an 8.1mm maple/walnut/maple shell with 45-degree SONIClear edges. The construction blends the two woods rather than making the drum a plain maple snare.

Hardware and Response:

The inward flange and extra mass of Sonic Saver hoops focus the rimshot. A Cylinder-Drive strainer uses micro-lock adjustment to keep the chosen wire tension stable.
