I heard somewhere that by putting newspapers in a snare shell it can take some ring out of it, so I thought what better snare to test that with than a clear shell. Let me tell you, it has a nice sharp crack to it now, no ring, going to try on my next gig, makes for a nice conversation piece also, looks cool in person.

HI Glenn
just the snare, I have not seen one of these come up on the bay in a long time, I know I have Jon Bonham's Obituary in my basement somewhere, when I find it, I'll put that newspaper in this drum, then surely I'll have a one of one snare LOL!!!

I purchased a `68 Rogers set, and the bass drum was packed with loosely crumpled pages of The Boston Globe from early `68.
The original owner said it was his prefered muffling method back then, and used it for years that way.

How cool, it makes sense, lighter than a pillow or blanket also.
