Frank Wolf Tom Parts?

Posts: 2713 Threads: 555

Does anyone here know where I could possibly find some of these clips?

This is an 8x14 Frank Wolf tom....I don't know much about it yet I just bought it. While I was cleaning the clips I noticed there are 3 or 4 different kinds on the drum. The top row of clips on the left - shown in the third photo here - are probably the proper ones.....maybe the bottom row I don't know.

The clips in the last photo show at possibly 4 types.

I'd be looking at buying 8 but whatever anyone has for sale would be good,

thanks,

Maybe it's just me, but those appear quite similar to Leedy.

Wolf may have been using Leedy supplied parts and/or shells.

(Slingerland and Ludwig did)

You have a mix of Leedy and SLingy chubbies. Go with the leedys as mentioned above . He had his boutique shop across from Manny's in NYC. His lugs were his own but I'm sure the rest were others factory bits.. He was the the creator of the 2-1 snare !!

The Slingerland are the chubbies. Look for Leedy clips for a single or double flanged hoop. You can even ask on the forum.
