This PDP Concept Series LTD Mapa Burl snare drum features a 100% European maple shell and a figured mapa burl veneer to deliver an experience that’s easy on the ears and the eyes. The 7-ply shell produces the classic warm tone and resonance of maple with mid to low-end attack. The antique bronze hardware features stylish dual-turret lugs and high-end DW appointments like a MAG Throw-off™, True-Pitch Tuning™ rods, and Remo heads. This limited production snare has a striking black burst finish and is available in 5.5” x 14”.
This unique snare is equally at home as a side snare or primary choice. The all maple shell in combination with Remo Powerstroke-style batter head with extended inlay ring produce a decidedly immediate, dry tone. The lack of resonance is perfect for studio applications and can be used as a desired effect to compliment another snare on the kit. Change out the top head for a more traditional “popcorn” snare sound to take advantage of all of the versatility this compact drum has to offer. The LTD Dry comes standard with dual-turret lugs, Remo heads, MAG throw-off and True Pitch tension rods with brass lug receivers.
