A few questions on the 13" shell before we move on. Is the shell a 9ply beech, are the edges original, does the drum have a badge and what are you asking price wise. Thanks.

Teardrop drums were either 3 ply with re-rings (ca 1957-1964) or 6 ply (from ca 1964-65 to the end). They were never 9 ply.

I stand corrected, my mistake, they did manufacture a 3ply with re-rings and the 6 ply. Thank you.

No problem, I just wanted you to be aware of this. Phonics were 9 ply, however. But that's another beast completely.

Good luck hunting, now.
