Bill Ludwig III tells us his heirloom-quality 1909 Series aluminum snare drum has been compared to a 1970s Black Beauty. This must be music to the ears of the man whose father and grandfather made the Ludwig name synonymous with quality drum making throughout the last century. Like the Black Beauty, the WFL III 1909 Series snare has the kind of versatility that players from all backgrounds will flock to. In fact, we feel it offers several improvements over some cherished classic aluminum snare drums, such as laser-cut bearing edges for better head seating, laser-cut snare beds for greater sensitivity, and a three-way Trick Drums GS007 throw off for variable snare tensions— to say nothing of its striking gold-sparkle aluminum shell and gold-finished hardware appointments.
