can anyone identify this drum? Last viewed: 2 hours ago

Posts: 5 Threads: 3

All I have is this one photo, the drum is not in my possession...the lugs look 60's "slingerlandish", but I don't recall ever seeing lug plates as wide as these. Anyone have a clue about the make of this drum?

Thanks,

KSJ

Looks like a Ludwig "Standard" model snare drum to me. Should be logos on the strainer and butt unless they were replaced. Is there a badge?

Agree with Gerald. Looks like the late 60's/early 70's metal Standard snare drum. Lugs, finish and the strainer all look correct for that.

Ludwig Standard snare circa 1968-1972ish. It's the same seamless aluminum shell as the Supraphonic and Acrolite snares but without the center bead and using the Standard lugs.

Thanks all, I haven't researched the ludwig snare lugs, never seen those before. I'll do a little digging for some more info. I have two Ludwig snares of my own, a 70 super sensitive and a real old tube lug shell that I think is from the 20's that I need to massage back into shape one of these days. I may pick this drum up if the price is right.

Decent snare...

@70 standard series Ludwig.

If the wires are correct and it has decent skins..

This is a great backup snare.
