Is it chrome over wood? P-85-Blackface stainer??
80's - 90's 6-Ply Chromo-Wood Jazz Fest?
well here are more pics. what do you think it is and how much do you think its worth? you can click on it to see it closer.. i really dont know what it is.. i found it on ebay.
It sure does not look like a 6.5 and it might have a Black and White badge.
You can see it at this page near the bottom under 1984 called the S/L Snare Drum

I thought Chrome-o-wood to, but according to "The Ludwig Book" that drum didn't come in 6.5... I think it said only 5".
However, I didn't think the drum looked like a 6.5 either.
Jim is correct. That's not a 6.5" drum. It's a 5" shell.
yeah. i dont think it looks like a 6.5 drum. as far as the badge, well the guy sent me a pic of the badge and it was a olive.blue one. but who knows. i mean maybe he is strying to scam me. i won the bid.. but it seems kinda tricky because i also dont believe it is a 6.5 drum. he said he measured it and it was 6.5. i dont think im going to pay the guy. too bad if he gives me a "bad feedback".
Is the guy knowledgeable about drums? Maybe he is measuring from rim to rim.
I think Lucky is probably right... the seller probably measured rim to rim.. that does look like a black face p-85 strainer so it probably is a Standard #600 5x14 Chrome-o-wood 4-ply.
What the heck.... nothing wrong with that snare drum.
