The multi-component construction of the cast lug guarantees exceptional performance that will withstand the demands of regular use. Additionally, the Sonor TuneSafe system is integrated into the lug assembly, preventing any unwanted detuning of the drums. With the AQ Cast Lugs, you can be confident that your snare drum will deliver consistent and reliable performance, gig after gig.
