A cool spin on a classic drum! This drum has been refurbished, but at it's core is a mid 60's 3 ply JazzFest, with a new lacquer finish in Fender's Fiesta Red Lacquer. The shell still shows it's age with some subtle splits in the outer ply in a couple of spots. the original grommet hole was tampered with, so it was plugged and redrilled, which can be seen from the inside. Interior is the original white paint, with some red overspray. The bearing edges have been touched up (leveled out and subtly adjusted, not fully recut), so the drum tunes very easily now. Most of the hardware is original - 8x bowtie lugs, 16x tension rods, the butt plate, snare wires, and the bottom hoop. The top hoop is a close replacement, and the strainer is a newer P-85. Muffler is missing, but the holes are there for a baseball bat style. Original 60's Ludwig badge, new grommet. Chrome has been cleaned, and shows minimal wear. There is one nick in the paint near the strainer. Remo Heads.

“I love this drum store! I just bought my second kit from Nelson's, and I couldn't be happier. The service and care these guys provide is like none other. This is THE place for vintage drums, fantastic service, and a great community. I've never felt more welcome and at home in a music store than I do here. Keep doing what you are doing!”

“I had been told to check it out. I had a few things i needed for a show later in the week and they had them. The man that helped me was awesome and answered all my questions. The place is crawling with vintage gear and snares! Will be back for sure!”
