The Projection of Maple with the 7-inch x 13-inch Mapex Hydro

For modern music, you just can't beat a 7-inch x 13-inch wood snare. Fat and focused. Dry and cutting. It's these qualities and more that the 7-inch x 13-inch Mapex Black Panther Hydro snare drum brings to the table. The Hydro's 6-ply shell is built from bold, broadband maple and capped with flanged hoops for a shockingly rich tone. The Hydro also features SONIClear bearing edges for added dryness and stability. And whether you're playing live or tracking in the studio, the Black Panther Hydro's sensitive response and wide tuning range will keep you coming back for more. Extra-deep, extra-wide snare beds enhance touch sensitivity. And thanks to its onboard cylinder-drive dual-adjustment throw off, you've got all you need for quiet tenoring and precise snare tensioning. The Mapex Black Panther Hydro 13-inch snare from Sweetwater comes stock with a Mapex-branded Remo Ambassador Coated batter head for added value and heightened performance.

Love it.

First and foremost, the pictures on here don't do it justice. It has an absolutely beautiful shell.
I previously had a black panther nomad but unfortunately had to sell my set. They no longer make the nomad so I had to take a shot in the dark (with the help of videos) on which black panther I wanted to go with now. I am not disappointed with my decision. It looks gorgeous, straight out of the box sounds amazing, it's amazingly responsive and just overall is an amazing snare. I'll never own another snare outside of the black panther line.

My primary studio snare drum!

An incredible all around snare that rocks out on stage, but really shines in the studio!! I use this drum as my primary studio snare and it always sounds amazing. Tune it up for a snappy pop, or tune it low for a deep punchy boom. I truly enjoy playing and recording this drum!
