This "Recco" snare drum just arrived! I wanted to take pictures before a complete cleaning and detailing was performed. I love 60's and early 70's MIJ snare drums! There are so many cool colors and features! This one caught my eye on eBay. I watched it for quite some time before buying it. Glad I did! Very unique lugs, held on by only one screw each. The strainer and butt are both die-cast. Hoops are more of a Rogers-style "tall boy" variety. Even the tone control is based on a Rogers! My 1969 Pearl kit used this same muffler, so, for now, I'm thinking this Recco drum was built by Pearl. Can anyone offer any more information on this great looking snare drum!
Oh yeah, it's all original!
