blaemire snare Last viewed: 3 hours ago

So I just picked this up. Can't stand the lugs but we'll see what happens. I'm wondering if it ever came with a rogers snare frame...But it has snare beds so I'm guessing not.

Hey man, great find.

Where did you get it?

I knew Valley Drum Shop well.

Bought it through someone who had it with another kit. A donor kit that had a bunch of random hardware from rogers to ludwig. But he had the original snare to the kit, so he wasn't particularly attached to this. So I made an offer.

Rogers Beavertails might fit that.

Here is one hooked up with Dyna hardware to get an idea of what it could look like

Very nice snag there!

Got it in Orange County. I know they're MIJ lugs....Thats why I hate them.Yes Sir. the hole spacing on the mij's are two inches. Beavertails are an inch and 29/32s. And it's damn depressing. And I'm not gonna widen the holes. Ludwigs won't fit, neither will slingerlands. I've seen your kit with the Rogers hardware a few times while doing research about these shells. That is an amazing kit! I love the look of it. But I am partial to green.lol.
