The Mapex Black Panther Predator 14 x 6.5 Copper Snare Drum is an all-copper snare that provides classic bright snare sounds, warm tones, and defined low-end. You won’t find much value among the coppers in your pocket, but instilled in this brand new addition to Mapex’s acclaimed Black Panther range, the Predator snare is a force to be reckoned with.
Like most metal snares, it benefits from excellent projection with ringing sustain. Copper sits somewhere between wood and metal, offering shells a hefty response and fierce rimshots. Not forgetting the Predator’s impressive glossy finish. With the Predator snare in your lap, you’ll ooze vintage style while making yourself heard in any musical mix. Recommended for popular genres that require some oomph.
Mapex’s Black Panther Series Drums, born of only the finest craftsmanship and obsessive attention to detail, make it into Mapex’s elite Black Panther range. These are drums that sound as impressive as they look. With custom Mapex features such as the SONIClear bearing edges and Sonic Saver hoops, the Black Panther drums are a formidable force for both the studio and the stage.
SONIClear Bearing Edges ensure better contact between the drum head and shell. This increased head-to-shell contact improves shell vibration and allows for greater resonance, as well as easier tuning. The sonic nuances of your snare strikes and rolls will sound better than ever.
Sonic Saver counterhoops focus the snare’s overall sound with their unique profile and also reduce wear and tear on sticks. They dramatically enhance its response.
