This model is no longer available as it was discontinued by Mapex in 2019. It is a super sounding drum whether tuned low or high and is great for playing live or studio work. It also looks spectacular with a lacquered natural wood finish which Mapex call “butter burst maple”.
The 2016 Mapex Black Panther 10 lug 14 x 5.5 Velvetone Snare Drum would be the best fit for drummers aiming to upgrade their snare drum kit with a premium black walnut and maple construction, offering a rich, clear sound and a visual appeal that complements their instrument.
