Hi, Everyone

---Sorry if I am posting in the wrong area (can't seem to access the "wanted" section).---

Wanted: 1930's- early 40's White Marine Pearl bass drum. Looking for the double tension style with large Streamline lugs (square on both ends).

14x24, 14x26, or 14x28

Cloud badge era

Missing parts is no problem.

Thank you!

Mark Cooper

Good deal on a shell if you want to rewrap...

Mark these have been at our local Guitar Center (Orange CT) for months. Was there about a month ago and they were still there. Price is kinda up there but maybe they'll talk. 28" bass cloud badge and the tacked head toms. Original wrap in pretty nice shape. I can take a closer look and get more pics if your interested. Let me know.

Saw this on Ebay. It's a good amount of yellow and maybe a tad pricey but it's an option

Thanks but I am looking for original wrap. Also, a painted finish can't be wrapped, as heads will not fit.

Thanks but I don't think that is feasible. I really appreciate your help!

Thanks, Aaron

I have discussed that drum with the owner but it didn't work out. Also, it's quite a bit more "yellow" than the drums I am trying to match, so I'll keep hunting.
