Mighty Mite Lugs Last viewed: 3 minutes ago

Loading...

I just finished looking at some Mighty Mite snare lugs for an old shell I have just sitting here (probably MIJ). From what I gather, the drum parts are sold from Il., USA. In my experience, that doesn't necessarily mean they were made there. I'm thinking China or Taiwan but, I may be completely off base. Any help concerning place of manufacture would be appreciated. Thanks.

I did a bit more investigating and found out that Mighty Mite drum parts were manufactured in Korea and sold in America. A representative of the company wrote that the parts are now discontinued. The last of some lots are still available. Only guitar parts will now be made. The drum parts were "not A+ chrome but, were functional and durable." The gentleman was very forthright and honest in his response and should be commended.

LOL! Jeez, I never looked at it in that light, John! It might be time I got a real job. I'm spending way too much time on drum business!
