No identification tom Last viewed: 11 hours ago

Posts: 8 Threads: 4

Hi, it's me again.

With my ludwig kick et floor tom, i receive this weird tom.

It look like a custom one, but alson like some old slingerland.

No identification badge, on stamp inside,

It has only one reinforcing ring, lugs are different from tbottom and top, and there is a 'wood circle plate' inside, 3-4 milimeter thick, 5 inches large. with some handmade inside painting

The tom mount look like a floor tom leg older...

There are the pic's

Thank!

The black paint and the style of the re-rings remind me of Walburg & Auge drums. I restored a kit from the 30's and the inside of the shells all looked like that, black paint and maple re-ring. The wide ring on the bottom is just like the tack ring on my calf bottom W&A toms. That would explain why the lugs are different. The bottom ones were added. The drum may have had a tacked on calf head on the bottom originally. All of mine had a gold stamp inside with the W&A logo. Look for ink remnants from an ink stamp inside the shell. W&A also used lugs and hardware from other companies at the customers custom order. Tough call if no stamp.

Re-size your photos, the page is skewed.

That interior looks like painted Luan to me-which indicates MIJ (Made in Japan).

Good eye! I hadn't noticed the vertical grain direction until you mentioned Luan.
