Are Sound King Lugs Steel or Brass? Last viewed: 2 hours ago

Okay, yet another (possibly silly question)DOH, but are the lugs on the Sound King COB as well? I'd like to know before doing the magnet test to know what I am to expect. My Sound King dates somewhere around '74 or so, which I now know came with COS stick saver hoops. Wanted to know if, for '74, only the shell is COB.

Always suspect of changes made...had that with an older Dyna

Thanks very much!

They were pot-metal I think, they were basically the same from the inception of that lug design. Shouldn't be magnetic
