One of the reasons Ludwig is self-proclaimed The Most Famous Name On Drums is thanks to the legendary Black Beauty snare drum. This snare is one of the most recorded snare drums of all time and is at the top of the wish list of artists and record producers around the world for their recording sessions. No doubt that one of your favorite records will feature the Black Beauty as well!
The Black Beauty is made from a single sheet of brass that is machine drawn into a seamless shell. Due to the precision required in the process, this is a unique, complex and very time-consuming manufacturing process and therefor, this snare drum is only manufactured by Ludwig in small numbers. As a result, each Black Beauty is made with the utmost care and partly by hand in Monroe and they are scarce on today's market.
There are quite a few different versions of the Black Beauty available nowadays. Not only is there a choice of various sizes, but variety's of hardware as well. And as scarce as the Black Beauty is these days, this one may be even more exotic; the LB416BT measures 14" in diameter and 5" in depth and is unique with its brass plated diecast hoops, brass plated Tube Lugs and P88AC throw off in combination with the P35P butt plate (both also finished in brass plating).
