Boy, I'm Happy...:) :) :)~ Finally p/u my new Roger's snare..

Thxs 2 DanC & Ploughman for the extra info/advice on what details 2 look for

I'l add Complete pics tonight..

Its a 1961/62 BDP Bread n Butter lug snare (14x5) #23***

*Not a cracked lug amongst them..!

Black background Clockface strainer. 100% original (except the skins).

Wrap/grommet/wires/rods/brass washers/hoops (even the snare strings).

Used it last nite at a upscale open mic nearby in Streetville(Oakville)

Took me a minute (song) to adjust the tension knob & I was off to the races.

Also let a friend (jazz drummer) try it for his 3 song set..

He bought me a beer afterwards & had nothing but comps..!

It Set me back $300 / but it was either that or re & re one of my cob powertones, after I found and re wrapped a decent orphan shell.

The best part is that Now my BDP Dayton kit has a matching snare.

I can finally get away from Brass..lol

Bop iT / Til U Drop iT.

That snare is killer.
