Wanted: Star MIJ claws/hoop

Loading...

Looking for some Star items to complete a restoration project:

- 3 BD claws. These should measure 2-1/2" to 2-5/8" across at widest, but not smaller. (See attached pic for reference)

- 1 20" plastic black BD hoop. Should measure 1-5/8" wide with a 5/8" inlay channel. Blue sparkle inlay or no sparkle ideally, but will consider any.

Thanks,

Charles

I have a Star 12" tom. It's got a nice blue pearl wrap and the round badge that says finest quality or something like that. With good heads it sounds great! Do you need a 12" tom?

Dang! This one is 2 1/4" at widest. I assume your measurements are accurate but just in case...? It's 100% free including shipping if you want it, sorry there's only one - used to have a whack of these.

[edit] the pic makes it look a bit bigger than 2 1/4" but it's exactly 2 1/4"

Thanks, Mitch. It looks very close, but the claws I'm looking for are definitely at least 2-1/2" wide.
