A Snare with Universal Appeal
Though it shares the same name as its nickel-over-brass-shelled ancestor, this all-new 6-ply walnut-shelled Universal Snare Drum from Ludwig really lives up to its name in terms of playability. With dimensions measuring 6.5 inches deep by 14 inches across, the Universal provides an ideal balance of projection and tone that will surely penetrate any mix. Dressed in a sapele outer ply with triple-flanged hoops, this snare looks sharp, boasting a classic aesthetic with standard 45-degree bearing edges. A P88i throw off and a P35 butt plate power duo pair perfectly for adjusting the tension of your snare wires to fit any rhythm section you lead. Make no mistake: Ludwig’s Universal Snare Drum is a fantastic choice for drummers of all ages, calibers, and playing styles!

Premium walnut shell
The Universal’s fabulous tone all starts with its shell construction. Walnut possesses a lively midrange that is dark when you wanted, but solid in the middle. It also has a richness to it, providing a nice depth that cuts through mixes like butter. If you're looking for a rock-steady backbeat, no matter what style you play, walnut is the way to go. In fact, Sweetwater drummers have found this 6-ply shell resonates in a cross-genre fashion to adjust to just about any playing style.
