Here is a Ludwig 1930's 5x14" Super Sensitive chrome over brass snare drum! This snare drum is in excellent condition and has a crisp, articulate sound. The resonant side snare wires are 10 individually-tensioned snares giving you a dry response with a faster decay, and its entire mechanism is in great working order. Internal tone control is present and functional as well. The Super Sensitive model also has a set of wires that are directly under the top head. These can be engaged with a lever and are designed for extra sensitivity when playing softer passages. The mechanism and wires are intact and function perfectly, with the only item being one snare wire strand that is loose as shown. The only other thing to note is some very slight indentations in the shell where the hardware is mounted, which can be seen in our photos. This drum is in phenomenal condition for a drum dating back to the 30's and is sure to satisfy a vintage Ludwig collector! Steve’s notes: This drum is also a heavy 2 pc shell with the welded back bearing edges. This is the shell that creates that incredible sound from the 20s Ludwig snares. Stunning drum in superb condition. Amazingly versatile. Looks almost brand new and it is over 90 yrs old!
