The Ludwig Black Beauty Super Sensitive 14" x 5" Snare Drum – 1990s LB418 is a classic American metal snare with the unmistakable warmth, projection and sensitivity that has made the Black Beauty one of the most respected snare drums ever produced.

This 1990s LB418 Super Sensitive model pairs the legendary Black Beauty shell with Ludwig’s more advanced Super Sensitive snare mechanism, giving the drum an exceptionally articulate and responsive voice. Unlike a standard throw-off system, the Super Sensitive mechanism uses an extended parallel-action snare system that allows the wires to engage very evenly across the resonant head, helping produce superb sensitivity at all dynamic levels.

Size:

  • 14" x 5"

Condition:

  • In Good Pre Loved Condition - In full working order with no cracks or structural damage to the shell. There are some spots of tarnishing to the finish, pitting and scratches to the hardware but nothing that affects playability. Overall, the snare is in good condition with only cosmetic imperfections consistent with regular use.

Code:

  • DA/LUD-LB418-14X5-SS-90S
