Okay, so here's the Leedy and Ludwig I just bought from a friend of mine. Is this a Broadway model? And can anybody tell me about the faux metal finish?
It's the original finish and it's not a wrap. The other unusual thing about this drum is that it was never drilled for a tone control.
The stamp on the inside is from Drummer's Paradise in Toronto which was a great store that went out of business many years ago...
First off Yes that is a Broadway Standard, I" have Never seen that finish can you post more pics of it please Beautiful drum, the best snare drum you'll ever Own!!!!Yes SirCool1

Here's some better pix....
Wow! What a beauty...and the condition looks to be amazing! The finish looks like a "stipple", but I don't find that offered in the Leedy catalogs on the VDG.
Beautiful drum! I'm very jealous as I was going to bid on it when it was on Ebay! It looks amazingly clean. Cool1

Awesome looking drum. The finish looks like it's made of metal. A very nice vintage piece. Hold on tight to this one.

It's a beaut. I took it all apart and cleaned every square inch of it.
Sounds great and I love the look of the finish and nickel hardware. The snare strainer works really well too.
Please post it in the gallery, It's a beauty!! get a set of puresound 20 strand custom snare wires for it, is it a solid shell or a ply shell?

I have 16 strand Puresounds on it because the snare bed is narrow. I think it's a solid shell.
That finish looks like Hammerite paint.
