PDP Concept Black Wax Snare (PDSN5514BWCR)

The PDP Concept Series Black Wax Snare is a boutique-quality instrument built around a powerful all-Maple shell. This snare is defined by its 10-ply European Maple construction, which delivers a warm, punchy tone with a full attack and pronounced mid-range. Finished with a hand-applied, wax-based sealant, it features a distinctive dark, smooth matte aesthetic that elegantly showcases the natural maple wood grain.
