Ludwig 6.5x14 Hammered Bronze Phonic Snare Drum, from Ludwig

The Phonic series of drums has been the backbone of Ludwig for decades. The seamless shells provide players a diversity of sonic possibilities for a variety of musical needs. 

A softer, darker alloy generally used for cymbal making, Bronze presents a unique blend of metal snare projection and the warmer tones of a wood drum. When compared to some of the other metal shell drums in the Phonic series, the bronze shell delivers a lower fundamental note and body that the others cannot naturally reach. This Ludwig Hammered Bronze Snare features a stylish hand-hammered shell and polished exterior with their Imperial lugs. The hammering process shortens the sustain while adding a beautiful aesthetic that is sure to please. 

The Ludwig Hammered Bronze is perfect for the player that is looking for something outside of the normal metal shell offerings. Refined ears and seasoned players are sure to enjoy all that the bronze has to offer.

Keeping in the traditions of the "Phonic Series" Drum Ludwig's Bronze Phonic snare drums offer a wide range of tuning options. The 1.2 MM seamless bronze shell offers a unique blend of the metal snare pop and projection, with all of the warmth you get from using a softer darker bronze alloy.

Offered with smooth or precision hammered shells, Imperial or Tube Lugs, and 5", 6.5" and Now 8" shell depths the Bronze Phonic series is must add to any drummer, snare drum collection.
