This Chris Adler signature snare drum from Mapex's Black Panther series combines fury with deadly precision to create an instrument that adapts brilliantly to your playing style. The 12x5.5" shell construction features 6 plies of maple and walnut, producing an intense, dark punch when tuned low and an explosive pop when cranked high.
Built with Mapex's SONIClear™ bearing edge technology, this snare offers biting, powerful and quick response characteristics that make it perfect for demanding musical situations. The satin walnut stain finish gives the drum a sophisticated appearance, while the black brushed chrome hardware adds a professional touch that complements any kit setup.
The Black Panther stainless steel snare wires complete this premium package, ensuring crisp snare response across all dynamic ranges. This signature model represents the perfect balance of aggressive tone and refined craftsmanship that serious drummers demand.
- The thin hybrid maple and walnut shell makes this drum perfect for a main snare when tuned high and is excellent for use as a auxiliary side snare.
- The SONIClear™ bearing edge increases tuning range and makes tuning easier and quicker.
- The small 12" x 5.5" size enhances articulation so that even the softest ghost notes don't get lost.
