Hi, it is the same Red. Thanks John
The drum is correct other than the lugs they are absolutely replacements for the originals, it should have the cigar double sided lugs as the ones I have shown you, also as already mentioned this is the ply model Radio king not the sold maple shell model, The drum key is not original to the drum, I'll post a pic of the original drum key when I get a chance, this drum of yours is a beauty.
Hi, would the newer lugs fit the holes as there is no extra holes inside the shell, I take another picture of inside, thanks for your time, the key was strapped to the inner case, he had lots of different lose keys in the collection but he clearly did not want to lose this. Thanks John

John, Yes the hole spacing is the same for the original cigar lugs and the soundkings, that is why they are replaced with them, Glad to be of help,
Hi, here is inside the shell, thanks to you all John

John, your drum is a real looker, thank you for sharing it with us.
NO Thank You MR vintage more2000 for your help , 30`s drums are something a bit new to me, I have for the last 25 years played mainly late 50`s and many 60`s kits, I have a pretty good collection from 3 Ludwig 60`s super classics, Rogers, Slingerland , Leedy , and some 60`s Brit kits that includes Hayman and many Premiers. I was a bit out of my comfort zone on this one, I think I will try to get the correct lugs, if you see them please will you get in touch, thanks again and peace John
