Ludwig Carl Palmer Venus Signature Snare Drum 14 x 3.75 in.

The Ludwig Carl Palmer Venus signature snare drum gives the power and projection needed for intricate progressive rock drumming. Created with legendary drummer Carl Palmer, this 3.7x14" beaded brass snare is crafted for volume and clarity across its wide tuning range. Beaded Brass Shell Provides Cutting Tone The beaded brass shell of the Venus snare generates a focused, articulate tone that cuts through dense instrumental textures. Brass is a highly resonant metal that produces a bright, projecting sound with rich sustain. At 3.7" deep, the shell offers a full, yet sensitive sound that provides a solid foundation for complex rhythms and time signatures. Die-Cast Hoops and Tube Lugs for Visual Contrast The drum's die-cast hoops not only provide rigidity for stable tuning but also offer an eye-catching contrast to the lacquered green shell. Offset tube lugs in a brushed brass finish continue the visual theme while securing the drumheads for consistent performance. With its distinctive green and brass color scheme, the Venus snare is a work of art that inspires to play at creative best. Wide Tuning Range Exceeds the Snare's Size Despite its compact 3.7" depth, the Venus snare offers a wide tuning range for versatility. Tune it high for crisp articulation and fast rebound or lower for fat, punchy tones. The tuning versatility, combined with adjustable snare strainer wires, provides the sensitivity and responsiveness required for Palmer's complex playing style. Experiment with different tunings to find the sweet spot that unleashes inner progressive rock drummer.
