Ludwig Supraphonic Snare, 14x5in, Imperial Lug overview by GAKWhen you think snares, you think Ludwig…and for good reason.
The Ludwig Supraphonic snare series is by and large the most popular snare drum series in the world. Thanks to Ludwig’s unwavering influence in the industry since 1911, the LM400 model has been toured and played by more drummers than any other competitor on the market since its creation in 1964.
The Supraphonic LM400’s 1.7mm seamless beaded aluminium shell with eye-catching chrome plating and smooth bearing edge is crafted to the highest standard. Resulting in the renowned Supraphonic sound, a refined blend of punchy attack with natural brightness and a clean, resonant tone that plays beautifully in low, mid and high tuning. Equipped with Ludwig’s P-85 snare strainer and lined with 10 2.3mm steel triple flanged hoops, the snare is finely tuneable and responsive after even the most minuscule of adjustments.
The versatility and solid balance of frequencies make the LM400 the snare of choice for drummers spanning countless genres and styles, from its root in jazz and rock & roll, to metal, funk and r&b.
