Mapex Black Panther snare drum Retrosonic

Allmänt

Moving forward by looking back with the Mapex Black Panther Retrosonic! This 14 x 5.5-inch snare has an 8.1mm thick shell made completely of walnut, which gives it a beautifully dark, vintage sound. It's equipped with a Cylinder-Drive snare strainer

Retro sound from the 70s and 80s

Made of 100% North American walnut, this snare has quite a dark timbre. The slightly rounded, 45-degree bearing edges also give it a certain sharpness, while the use of Remo Suede Ambassadors makes the sound a bit softer and deeper. The result: a 70s or 80s retro sound, as suggested by its name.

Sonic Saver hoops

However, this Black Panther Machete stands out in other areas as well! The Sonic Saver hoops, that Mapex designed especially for the Black Panthers, enhance the drum's projection, while their design will extend the lifespan of your sticks without compromising your ability to play ear-shattering rimshots. Are you looking for a vintage sound to take you back a couple of decades, but do you want contemporary quality? Look no further: the Mapex Black Panther Machete is the ideal snare drum for you.
