A warm, deep maple snare with the feel of a high-end drum. The Mapex BPNML4600CWD is the Black Panther Heritage snare: a 14″ × 6″ 5-ply maple shell with walnut reinforcement rings, SONIClear bearing edges and a White Psicobloc Pearl finish.
Why customers choose it
- Rich maple tone: 5-ply 5.0 mm maple shell with 4-ply 4 mm walnut reinforcement rings and a 2.7 mm snare bed, 5.5″ wide.
- Tunes easily: the SONIClear 45° bearing edge lets the head sit flatter on the shell for a stronger, deeper pitch, consistent tuning and a much wider tuning range.
- Great feel: Air Flow Venting – Mapex fits each Black Panther model with the ideal number of vent holes (3 on this drum).
- Smooth strainer: cylinder-drive strainer and butt-side adjustment on self-lubricating bearings, with micro-lock knobs for precise snare tension.
- Holds tune: in-line locking B-lugs and Sonic Saver hoops.
Who it is for
Gigging and recording drummers who want a step-up snare, church and studio drummers looking for warm maple tone, and players upgrading from a kit snare.

FAQ
What makes SONIClear edges different?
The head sits flatter and touches the shell more evenly, so the drum tunes more easily, has a deeper pitch and a wider tuning range.
