Conn snare, Modern Drummer Article Last viewed: 9 hours ago

Posts: 9 Threads: 3

Hi all,

I wanted to share the article I wrote for the Feb. issue of Modern Drummer regarding the gold-plated Conn snare I found a couple of years ago. I originally did and interview for NSMD and at the vintage show in Chicago.

Anyway, I was happy to get the story published in MD.

Enjoy!

Great article man. I LOVE learning the history of each drum I find as well. Sometimes when you dig, it pays off like yours did. Great job & great drum!
