If your kit matched this snare.. would you bid on it Last viewed: 14 hours ago

Sorry forgot the question mark on that title.????

Sure it's just a 6 lugger .. but the wrap and year matches.. Would a matching snare increase the value of the overall kit?

I've got a nice chrome SK behind it now. The catalog shows it with the chrome SK so maybe that's how it should stay.

Not a Guru... just interested..

Certainly wouldn't go down in value. Iwould think that is a hard snare to match. I would figure a max worth to me and then bid. Good luck.

The catalogs didn't show all combinations. During different era, chrome snare were the norm and wood were special order. Old Dynas were within $100 of chorme at the time I think.

Catalog shmatalog. If you have a matching set, and you are thinking about its value, get the snare if it is reasonable. It will increase the value of the set as long as the snare's condition is the same as the set or better.

This is especially true for the easy-to-scratch flame wraps such as this one.

Of course that's just my opinion, and I could be wrong.

Didn't someone sell a kit like this on Ebay about a month ago? That wrap is hard to forget.

My kit is a modern solo 2-12 toms 16 floor tom and 20 inch bass... and the Sound King.

I'm with you O-lugs... didn't mean to rip on 6 luggers.. I've got 59-60' WMP Slingerland 6 lug that is a great drum!!
