The Ludwig Drums 14" x 5" Classic Maple snare in Olive Oyster blends vintage-inspired style with the timeless tone that’s made Ludwig a staple for generations. Built from an all-maple shell, it delivers a warm, balanced sound with crisp articulation and controlled projection—perfect for both studio work and live performance.

The 5" depth keeps the response tight and focused, offering a clean, defined crack with plenty of sensitivity for ghost notes and dynamic playing. It’s a versatile go-to size that sits comfortably in any mix without overpowering the kit.

The Olive Oyster finish gives this drum a classic, retro look that stands out while still feeling right at home in Ludwig’s long history of iconic designs. Paired with the proven Classic Maple formula, it’s a snare that looks as good as it sounds.
