Ludwig Jazz Festival Snare Drum Re-Release

Sweetwater is excited to introduce the re-release of the iconic Ludwig Jazz Festival snare drum, a must-have for any serious Ludwig collector. The reissued Ludwig Jazz Fest snare faithfully captures all the magic and beauty of the original design, featuring 8-lug hoops, a baseball bat damper lever, and a whitewashed Reso-Coat shell interior. The 3-ply Legacy Mahogany shell delivers the classic Ludwig sound, renowned for its warmth and wide-open tone reminiscent of the 1950s and 60s. Vintage ’64 snare beds, a smooth-action P88 throw off, and a premium retro shell wrap add to the authenticity of this timeless snare drum.
