That's a seriously thick shell. It's not vintage, for sure. That's one of them six hundred twenty-three ply jobbers.

"Dude, I've got a snare with over SIX HUNDRED PLIES!!! It's gonna be SO LOUD!!!"

If they only knew.

The hardware is somewhat vintage. That's all. The sound will NOT be vintage.

Looks like a mix of home-made shell, Ludwig & Ludwig (or Leedy & Ludwig) lugs, Leedy Broadway hoops and tension rods and a Slingerland three-point strainer.....
