As Ludwig's flagship professional drum line, Legacy Series is a decidedly modern twist on our vintage shell formula. Classic 3-ply shell construction from Ludwig's Golden Era are treasured for tonal purity in recording environments. 

SHELL
1/16" Maple Outer Ply, 1/8" Poplar Core Ply, 1/16" Maple Inner Ply with 1/4" Solid Maple Reinforcement Rings.

One of the primary reasons Ludwig is "The Most Famous Name On Drums" is the legendary Black Beauty Snare Drum. The drum is constructed of a single sheet of brass that is machine drawn into a seamless beaded shell. However, due to their truly unique and difficult manufacturing process, only a very limited number of Black Beauties are available each year from Ludwig USA. 

A true American original, the Black Beauty provides a warm, round metallic tone that is often imitated, but never duplicated.
