Soooo .... What Exactly Do I Have Here? Last viewed: 16 hours ago

I grabbed this Duplex snare earlier today. I thought it would make a nice display piece. It measures 4 x 15. Any Duplex "experts" out there that can provide any info on this one for cataloging purposes? I'll add some additional pics in a separate post. Thanks!

Interesting. With all that venting, one would have to wonder what that would sound like all tuned with new heads and snares. Looks to be brass hoops (from the scratches). Probably brass shell.

If those clips are welded to the hoops, it's surprising that they are not broken.

Very nice piece. Sorry, I can't provide any catalog info.

You can see in the first pic the clips go through the hoops.
