More Info:
A classic and well-known snare drum, the LUDWIG LM404 Acrolite Snare Drum has been a bright and crispy aluminum-shelled favorite for years! Once perceived as a student-level snare drum, the sound of the Ludwig Acrolite Snare has become an essential snare in the collections of most professional drummers and is also found in many recording studios as a favored “house snare”. It has become an artist favorite for its bright, dry response, its lively projection and articulate play. Featuring the signature "Black Galaxy" finish, Classic lugs and its unique black/white vent badge, the seamless, beaded aluminum shell of the Acrolite snare drum reflects Ludwig excellence in quality and leaves no question that it is simply a tremendous snare drum at any level. The Ludwig LM404 Acrolite Snare Drum also includes a built-in, internal tone and muffling control. The “bead” around the center of the shell is a feature found in some of the best metal-shell snare drums. It guarantees the perfect roundness of the shell, increases its structural strength and increases the tonal focus of the drum. The snare throw-off is positive, dependable and sensitive.
