I was given a 22" bass drum shell that is cracked from using too big a shell mounted cymbal on it.
It there a use for this shell?? The fellow who gave it to me knew that it matched my Krupa kit and thought maybe it would handy to have a shell with matching wrap laying around..
Side note on the vintage drum community: very nice of him to think of me, we had corresponded some time ago over an ebay purchase and he was cleaning some stuff out, had this shell, and made the effort to contact me.
