A gorgeous burl maple and walnut snare that will give your sound a classy edge.
Don't be deceived by the Mapex Black Panther Velvetone drum's beautifully seductive exterior—this snare drum is wickedly dark with a high degree of sensitivity. Its 8.1mm drum shell is constructed from one 3mm exterior burl maple ply, one 3.4mm walnut middle ply, and one 1.7mm interior maple ply.
Each Black Panther Velvetone drum features handbuilt and hand-finished Black Panther shells and completely redesigned hardware. From the fresh, sculpted lug design to the smart badge, this Mapex snare drum is now more beautiful than ever.
Mapex Black Panther hardware
The cylinder-drive strainer uses a self-lubricating bearing to ensure smooth operation while providing minute control of the snare's tension. Mapex's piston-style throw-off is incredibly smooth and requires minimal effort to operate, and the adjustment dial employs micro-lock technology that provides a tactile click as it's turned, allowing precise control.
Sonic Saver Hoop
The Sonic Saver Hoop bridges the gap between flanged hoops and die cast hoops. A unique shaping process creates a profile that reduces wear and tear to both sticks and hands while dramatically enhancing the response and feel of every rimshot.
The Sonic Saver is significantly lighter than a conventional die-cast hoop, so it won't choke the shell's vibration. The result is a more natural percussive sound with much greater resonance.
This Black Panther Velvetone snare drum features stainless steel snare wires for crisp, lively action, and premium Remo drum heads, including a coated Ambassador batter head.

Comments about Mapex Black Panther Velvetone Snare Drum:
If you like wood snares get this one! It may not be the loudest wood snare out there but it's loud enough. Great for the studio. I do a lot of country and CCM music and its great. I'm not a big Remo fan. I put a Evams Power Center Reverse dot on it as soon as I opened the box. It has good crack and low end. Tune it high and it cracks tune it low and you get a fat gooshy sound. As long as you knownhow to tune a drum This one will sound good no matter what! It's sensitive enough for rudiments but csn get loud. It's fairly dark sounding without a huge amount of overtones. Side stick sounds good and meaty. The finish is beautiful and the hardware is sturdy. I love the clicks on the strainer adjustment. Good job Mapex!
