Antique Store Find 1950's Green Sparkle Broadkaster Snare! Last viewed: 8 hours ago

Posts: 759 Threads: 176

I finally got a decent score from an antique store! Now granted I saw the add on Craigslist but it was at an antique store none the less! I have been looking for one of these in WMP for my 1950's Gretsch kit but faded Oscar the Grouch Green will have to do for now. $175.00 plus tax out the door. May not make my best score ever list but I like it!

I would love to have the WMP version of this for my kit! Kinda dig the faded green though. Don't see it too often.

I would clean it really well, get it in great shape with a little age showing and you`ll probably find a guy with a green set and WMP snare first.

It`s a drum,.....Hit It !!

Just rip that ugly green crap off there and re-wrap it in WMP. It's no big deal.

Maybe you could even put one of those cool magnetic DW throwoffs on there too :)

I had a great day! Instead of sleeping in and wasting the day, I got up at 8 and I had all my slacking done by noon!

OK - you guys are killin me here! Nobody is calling me out here......in order for me to explain that I was being sarcastic and it was a joke!

So.....looks like before I go to bed I should explain this before a bunch of you get the wrong idea!
