The Ludwig 14 x 6.5 LM405C Acrolite Snare Drum is a re-invented snare drum in its original beauty. A 1.6mm seamless aluminium shell provides an incredibly versatile sound and an aesthetic that fits perfectly with any drum kit and style of music. Add the Acrolite to your kit and indulge in the sharp dry tones cutting through your mix with a sparkling treble response. The shell is only the start. The 2.3mm steel triple-flanged hoop allows the drumhead to vibrate as freely as possible while also providing a great stick surface for rimshots and cross-sticks. The thicker 2.3mm hoop subtly dampens ringing overtones from the head to focus on the magic that lies beneath. The twin lugs reduce physical contact with the shell itself ? minimising any restriction to its movement and maximising on the beefy full-bodied tones. Finally the P88AC Throw-Off is simplicity itself. It provides a smooth no-nonsense action and world-class control over your snare wire sensitivity. The Ludwig 14 x 6.5 LM405C Acrolite Snare Drum is the complete package marked with its blue/olive badge. This badge means Acrolite. Acrolite means quality.
