Ludwig Acro Aluminum Snare Drum 14 x 6.5 in.

The Acro Series Snares started over 50 years ago with Ludwig’s legendary AcroLite snare. This design has since become a drummer’s “secret weapon” suitable for both studio and live use. This snare has a warm dryness that’s been heard on hundreds of recordings over the decades.

The Acro Aluminum shell starts a single piece of metal that’s machine drawn into a seamless beaded shell. This piece is then outfitted with 2.3mm triple-flange hoops, 10 small twin lugs, Weather Master heads and Ludwig’s redesigned P86 drop-style throw off.  Sonically, the aluminum shell provides a wide range of tones and tunings, all with a slightly drier sustain and controlled attack.
