Hi Y'all,
I have a 1960 ish COB Ludwig supersensitive snare. I have an original snare for it with the mixed gut/wire snare cords/wires with the individual adjustable wires.
Problem: The gut cords have shrunk over time and are not of equal length and are so short now that the wire snares cannot be tightened far enough to be usable. Even with the adjusters all the way out, they just hang there. The wires are quite oxidized as well.
Question: I want to rebuild the snare wire assembly. Does anyone know where I can get plain snare wires? Like 6 pieces about 16" long? Howz about the gut strings? How the little crimp fittings? Any ideas or advice?
Thanks!
Tim
