Ludwig Rocker Elite Piccolo: The Ultimate Cut-Through Snare

Discover the piercing precision of the Ludwig Rocker Elite Piccolo Snare Drum, a masterfully crafted 13x3-inch powerhouse that delivers razor-sharp articulation and commanding presence. This specialized snare combines a hybrid Maple/Basswood shell construction with premium 2mm steel hoops to produce the signature crack that cutting-edge drummers demand. The natural maple finish not only showcases the drum's elegant woodgrain but also reflects Ludwig's commitment to both sonic excellence and visual appeal.

Each Rocker Elite Piccolo comes equipped with a professional-grade medium coated batter head, ensuring optimal response and attack right out of the box. The shallow 3-inch depth paired with the versatile 13-inch diameter creates the perfect recipe for crisp rimshots, articulate ghost notes, and lightning-fast response. Traditional Classic lugs not only provide reliable tuning stability but also pay homage to Ludwig's rich heritage in drum craftsmanship.
