LUDWIG LB416 BLACK BEAUTY SNARE DRUM BRASS - 14 x 5" Smooth Shell, Imperial Lugs

The Legendary Black Beauty

The legendary Ludwig Black Beauty line of snare drums is one of the main reasons why Ludwig is one of the largest and most popular drum brands today. Constructed from a single sheet of brass, machine drawn into a seamless beaded shell, the Ludwig LB416 Black Beauty Brass Snare Drum is a true American original, providing you with a warm, rounded metallic tone that is often imitated, but never duplicated.

Ludwig Snare Drums are the most toured and recorded snare drum in the world and with good reason. From the smooth round perfection of the bearing edge to the precision form of the snare bed, Ludwig Snare Drums are in a league of their own. At RIffs Licks Music, we think the LB416 Black Beauty certainly deserves its name, with a truly unique tone that is sure to find its place in your kit.
