Independent shopping perspective
Ludwig’s 14 x 6.5-inch Black Beauty pairs a brass shell and nickel-plated finish with tube lugs, die-cast hoops, factory heads, and Supraphonic snare wires. Ludwig describes its brass shell as delivering a warm, rounded metallic character, with the snare wires contributing the Black Beauty attack. Tube lugs are fitted for precise, secure tuning. A Road Runner Boulevard II Series bag comes with the drum to guard it from dings, dents, scratches, scuffs, and everyday wear between gigs.
