Re: 1963 Premier Royal Ace COB 10 lug
Great Looking snare FayRay!
I have a sixties RA and love to play it once in a while for the very qualities you mention  tunes up high and dry for great rudimental articulation.

Re: 1963 Premier Royal Ace COB 10 lug
thanks guys.
Mark - the parallel system is very smooth although it is missing one of the tiny grub screws that holds on the small lever (has a replacement in there right now). This appears to be a common problem as they loosen off after a while - much like a pair of glasses when the arm comes loose and the screw is impossible to find. John & BigE - I really didn't have to do much detailing on this. I just stripped it down and polished it up. It was a working drum but kept in immaculate shape. You are right John, the lugs are contemporary looking and beautiful. Kellyj - if I was any good at rudiments that's exactly what it would be brilliant for V2000 - yeah, it's a rare one for sure but i get the feeling Premier would make anything you wanted at the time.
