A NEW BREED: After a decade of success, Mapex ushers in a new era of Black Panther by introducing a new lineup of fourteen snare drum models, each with its own distinctive personality. Working closely with our drum design team, a panel of international Mapex Artists shared its advice and expertise on everything from shell materials and functionality, to sizes to aesthetics.The result is a collection of unique Black Panther Snare Drums that look fantastic and sound even better. Each drum features hand built and hand finished Black Panther shells and completely redesigned hardware.
