[FONT=Georgia][SIZE=5]Re-Edged all of them ... moving the contact area slightly inwards,

[/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Georgia][SIZE=3]this allows for easier tuning and a Deeper, Rounder, and Richer Tone ...

Good catch and I just figured out it doesn't come with all in the picture. Not that great of a buy... sorry boys.

I love how it says that the "re-edging" does not change the sound.........actually yes it does. And I hate when the listing shows a snare or something that doesn't come with the auction. If it doesn't come with it why show it??? DOH

Exactly.

By the way, what was the BIN?

Cool finish. What year were those made?

I didn't see the BIN but it appears he has no reserve so he'll have to sell, whatever the bid gets to.

The trouble with living in Canada is the hasstle of shipping @#$%*@@!

I don't know how many times I've clicked on something lately to find "no shipping to Canada - you know that country way up there in the North."

Nice drums !!!

The buy it now was in the $700 range.

I know what you mean! But I've had quite a bit of luck getting stuff shipped to me in Toronto, even when the listing said "no international bidders." If you shoot off a quick e-mail before bidding, most sellers will agree to ship to Canada. The only time I don't bother asking is when the listing says "don't even ask!" :)

Wow! I love looking at those close-up pictures of the snares that don't even come with it. (Well, unless I want to pay top-dollar for them after winning the auction...)
