6 days to go. Check it out.

No It's not. The original was black cortex but it was cracked and in bad shape so I removed it and re-wrapped it in White Marine Pearl.

I added that after I saw your question. Didn't realize I forgot to put that in the ad. Thanks. Hopefully that won't put people off buying it. But then again I originally built this for myself. So hopefully people take that into consideration.

3 days to go on the auction.

Yes that is a 1" piece of wrap covering the seam.

The reason I didn't over lap the wrap at the seam is When you cut the baring edge you wind up with a small hump on the edge of the baring edge which you having try to file down with out ruining the the new edge. So I trimmer the ends of the wrap so they butted together perfectly. Which gives you a perfect baring edge. The only reason I put the 1" piece over top of it is to make sure the seam doesn't lift, which it won't. Trust me that piece is on there good. It's little different way of doing it and not the way Ludwig would do it. But as I said I built the drum for myself so I built it my way. I didn't build it with the intent to sell it. But as I said money is not good right now and I need it more than I need the snare. And I'd rather sell this drum than selling my 70's LUDWIG kits. I cut my hands off first before I sold my kits.

Hope that answers your question and doesn't scare anyone off.
