A special offering! These do not pop up often and are quite coveted for all their unique quirks! This one has been carefully restored to as close to it’s former glory as could be done, blending original parts with new reproduction parts. This is refinish, but done pretty accurately to the original and with lacquer paint. Some of the wooden lugs are original, and some are reproductions. Hoops are original with inlay, but the gate on one side of the bottom hoop has been repaired (crack glued and a metal brace screwed in). Both hoops exhibit some slight warped, which is very common for these, but drum tunes up fine. Claws all appear original, as do the bottom tension rods, but the top tension rods are new. The strainer is complete. and functions, sporting a reproduction arm. New snare wires. New calf heads both top and bottom. For what these are, this one holds it’s tune and sounds good!

“I love this drum store! I just bought my second kit from Nelson's, and I couldn't be happier. The service and care these guys provide is like none other. This is THE place for vintage drums, fantastic service, and a great community. I've never felt more welcome and at home in a music store than I do here. Keep doing what you are doing!”

“I had been told to check it out. I had a few things i needed for a show later in the week and they had them. The man that helped me was awesome and answered all my questions. The place is crawling with vintage gear and snares! Will be back for sure!”
