Ludwig's Black Beauty remains one of the most popular drums on the market. Its brass shell conjures up classic snare tones over an incredible tuning range, and works in pretty much any musical scenario.

This 8 Tube Lug version is a bit more open and livelier than a normal Black Beauty, making it an incredibly versatile, sensitive drum. Perhaps even more than a regular one!
