For 2020 Mapex have completely re-launched their entire line up of Black Panther snare drums. Every model has been designed down to the finest detail to ensure every drum has its own unique voice. Between the 14 new models there is sure to be something to suit every drummer and any musical situation.

The Heritage

The Heritage is a 14 x 6 5mm 5 Ply Maple Shell with 4mm 4 Ply Walnut Reinforcing rings. This drum is a beautiful traditional sounding drum, lots of body and warmth, the walnut reinforcing rings are said to further darken the tone and they add a striking look to the inside of the drum too that very much contrasts with the White Strata external finish.

The Heritage has Sonic Saver Hoops, in line locking B lugs and SONIClear 45 degree bearing edges The drum is finished in a White Strata, has chrome hardware and comes fitted with Remo USA Ambassador Coated batter head and Ambassador Snare Side underside.

The Black Panther Cylinder drive snare mechanism is fitted which allows the snare wires to be incrementally tensioned from both ends of the wire. 

Like all Black Panther series drums from recent years this snare comes with a Mapex Black Panther draw string bag which allows you to safely store the drum and protect the hardware and finish when not in use.
