The Legendary Bonham Snare
The performance-proven Ludwig Supraphonic LM402 snare drum was the first choice of legendary drummer John Bonham and can be heard on most of Led Zeppelin's classic recordings. Famous for its bright, crisp attack, thanks to a chrome-plated, seamless beaded aluminum shell, the LM402 provides you with a sublime balance of full, cavernous tone and cutting snare crack. The drummers at Sweetwater have used the LM402 on every type of music with fantastic results. Featuring a smooth shell and elegant-looking Imperial lugs, the Ludwig Supraphonic LM402 snare will make a fine addition to your drum set.

The Ludwig legacy
With a proud legacy that dates back to 1909, Ludwig drums are a favorite among Sweetwater drummers for their warm, punchy sound. The world has heard them in front of Cream's Ginger Baker, keeping the pulse behind Queen at Live Aid, and laying down the monstrous sound 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. The Supraphonic LM402 snare drum carries this impressive legacy forward.
