Hi, this is my latest E-bay purchase/project. It's a 12x4 wooden snare, which looks pretty nice, fitted with Premier everplay skins, featuring the old Premier logo. It's got those fittings you find on child's drum kits - you know, no tension lugs, just a single rod for both skins, and 5 sets of them. Also, they have slot-type heads, not drum key size. There's only 8 wires on the snare. It sounds lousy, so I was going to convert it with some old lugs/rods, to see if I can get it sounding usuable, as it could make a nice little side snare. Trouble is I dont want to start putting holes in it if, crappy sounding or no, it's infact old and worth a little. Any ideas/advice?
