  3. Also included is a one-shot .wav file of the snare drum for MIDI replacement

The Legendary Black Beauty … 

An American classic, the Black Beauty delivers a warm, fat, metallic tone that cuts through a thick mix like nothing else. This one is a limited edition, fitted with gold-plated hardware including die cast hoops, P88BP die cast throw off, and tube lugs. This drum is super responsive (and beautiful). Due to a complex manufacturing process, they're not easy to make, so the Black Beauty is only available in limited quantities each year from Ludwig USA.

Dimensions:  5” x 14”
Shell:  Black Nickel over Brass
Batter Head: Ludwig Weather Master Heavy
Resonant Head: Ludwig Weather Master
Snares: Ludwig 18-strand

Tuning:  

Fundamental Pitch = 195 Hz
Batter =  291 Hz
Resonant = 368 Hz
