Rock That Copper Backbeat
With almost a century of symphonic timpani making under its belt, Ludwig knows copper. Now the legendary drum company has brought its copper expertise to its snare drums with the Copper Phonic. This sensational snare drum rocks a thick 1.2mm copper shell with a gorgeous lightly lacquered and patina'd dark raw copper finish. Ludwig built the Copper Phonic to the same pro standards as the company's famous Supraphonic, Bronze Phonic, and Black Beauty snares (all Sweetwater favorites). The Copper Phonic's seamless copper shell delivers a dark, punchy sound with rich, complex overtones. The Ludwig Copper Phonic will make an excellent addition to your drum kit or snare arsenal.

Since 1909 Ludwig drums have had one of the proudest legacies in percussion, and are a favorite of Sweewater drummers for their their warm, punchy sound. The world has heard them under the sticks of Cream's Ginger Baker, keeping the pulse behind Queen at Live Aid, and laying down the monstrous beat of Led Zeppelin's "When the Levee Breaks." But their biggest break came when Ringo Starr proudly played them on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1964, making Ludwig a household name for aspiring and superstar drummers alike.
