Seven-ply, 6 mm maple shell
Forms the shell construction of this Classic Maple model.

Independent shopping perspective
The Vintage White Marine Classic Maple is Ludwig’s 14 x 6.5-inch maple snare configuration. Its seven-ply, 6 mm shell uses 45-degree bearing edges, a combination described as helping the drum speak quickly, seat heads evenly, and retain clear articulation through a broad tuning range. Triple-flange hoops, steel hardware, a patented Ludwig throw-off, and steel carbon snare wires support the working layout. The finish is a wrap rather than a lacquered shell treatment, making the visual choice clear when matching a kit.
