Ludwig LUCT16P7 Ultimate Marching 12X16 Single Chest Tenor Drum Gray Cortex

The Ludwig Ultimate Marching Traditional Chest Tenor is designed for only the best sound quality and dependable performance. It starts with an 8-ply maple shell that supplies rich and balanced tonality with plenty of projection to be easily heard from the end zone. Shaved with 45-degree bearing edges and a rounded back cut, these drums prioritize optimal drumhead-to-shell vibration transfer to not only aid in supplying maximum projection, but also to deliver proper intonation. Reliable case-hardened tension rods make tuning adjustments a quick and painless process. In contrast, the lightweight aluminum alloy tension casings and triple-flanged hoops offer some weight relief for a comfortable performance every time out. Crafted in Monroe, NC, the Ludwig Ultimate Marching Traditional Chest Tenor is the revered and trusted choice for school marching programs across the country.
