Good Morning. Just purchased LB553 Bronze piccolo and there appear to be no springs in any of the nut boxes. Were these drums originally fitted with springs ? Serial number is 321 9315 and its date stamped 129 on the inside of the shell. Look forward to any reply. Regards Paul

I have never seen a Ludwig piccolo snare with any springs, just a receiving nut. I don't know about the earlier models but based on the nut box design, I doubt if they ever had springs.

Most modern nut boxes (lugs) don't have springs. They usually have a nylon insert that holds the swivel nut in place and also acts as a lug lock to prevent the tension rods from loosening.
