DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage Ludwig 5x14 Super-Ludwig snare drum that recently came into our shop on trade. Featuring an in-round chrome-over-brass shell with the typical additional rolls on the interior flanges and a vertically welded seam, pre-serial Keystone badge from the early 1960s, knob-style interior muffler, crimped snare beds, and larger mass (vs. the subsequent Supra-Phonic models) "Super" Imperial lugs, this snare drum appears to be all original except for the batter head and is in excellent, fully functioning overall condition. 

As a vintage instrument expect to find age-appropriate signs of handling and use including small scuffs and scratches throughout the chrome surface, a few fingerprints, a bit of dust here and there, and some very small areas of light pitting under the heads and on a few of the lugs. Also note that one of the snare gates on the bottom hoop is ever-so-slightly bent (see closeup pic with red arrow). 

Feel free to contact us with any questions or to request additional photos. And remember, this vintage Ludwig snare drum ships FREE within the continental United States. Buyers outside the continental U.S. should message us for a shipping quote prior to purchase.
