Condition Description: VG - Snare is in very good condition with no extra holes or modifications. Original red sparkle wrap is in great condition, clean, shiny, no fading. Chrome hardware is mostly clean and shiny with minor wear and signs of use (resonant snare rim gates have slight bends, not a problem). All complete, original, and fully functional. Shell has tight re-rings and mostly smooth bearing edges, but pic 15-16 shows some wood-filler in the edge near the wrap seam. Heads are later (80s?) Ludwig models coated white batter and clear snare side resonant, both in great shape with lots of life left. Includes set of steel generic snare wires in great shape. Ready to play out of the box.
