The Mapex Hydro snare is the result of several years of innovation from the Black Panther series. The base for this drum is a thin 6.15mm hybrid shell of maple and walnut with reinforcing rings. The reinforcing rings combined with the Soniclear edges make this drum really easy to tune while adding a bit of focus to the note. Whether you decide to play this drum as a primary snare drum or an auxilliary drum, the Hydro has full-bodied note that is sure to please.

Compeletely redesigned, the Mapex Black Panther Snare Drum Line has undergone some serious upgrades.  Borrowing from the renegade Design Lab series snare drums, there has been some trickle down features that are now found on these new drums, like the Design Lab Air Flow Venting, and the Soniclear Snare Beds to provide enhanced sensitivity.  All bearing edges have the Soniclear edge for easier tuning and head seating, and the the Sonic Saver Hoops are standard on all drums. 

The Hydro is alive with fluid energy, deep and dark and bursting with character. When the music calls for a small diameter sound packing the punch of a storm surge.
