Here are my three COB snares.
On top is a "Slingerland Spitfire." 5" by 14" (Louie Bellson.) 1979, 12-lugs.
To the left is a "Rogers Dyna-sonic." 5" by 14", 70s, 10-lugs.
And on the right is a "Slingerland Sound King." (video.) 6.5" by 14" from the early 60s, 8-lugs.
Enjoy,
Fred
most excellent ,what is that pink champagne base drum too ?
Hi there, and thanks for watching.
The 6-ply Gretsch "Round Badge" bass drum in the background just happened to be there while I was taking the cob snares picture.
But, to answer your question, it goes with my two 8-ply "Rogers xp8" toms, size 14" and 15". (video.)
Here is a pic of my two big "Rogers" toms and the Louie Bellson & Big R Dyna snare.
Cheers,
Fred

The first "Pink Champagne" drums I had in the early 70s, was a "Ludwig" downbeat kit with "Supraphonic" snare.
So now, when I get into the mood to play, and I look at the same sparkling copper finish of my [B]xp8 toms[/B] (video.) and Gretsch bass drum, it reminds me of those days.
Again, thanks for watching,
Fred

Yes, I also like my Spifire very much. It is my favorite snare. The other two of my snares are also nice to play of course!
Maybe you have a pic of your Spifire? Getting curious!
