This is a beautiful looking snare. it's been well maintained and I've never really played on it live or on tour. I mainly purchased this snare for its reputation as a classic collectors item. Minor scuffs outside the shell but nothing major that affects the quality of sound. Clutch still works really well and there's Puresound snares currently on it. Overall this is a beautiful drum and awesome collectors item for any Ludwig enthusiasts. I'm sad to see it go but I need to extra cash. This item is sold as described.
