Looking for Classic P-87 Style Throw and Butt Plate

Posts: 799 Threads: 170

I have a 1958 6.5x14 Ludwig WFL Symphonic Snare in White Marine Pearl. All original, except for the strainer throw. Somewhere along the line it was updated to a 1960's P-83, instead of it's original P-87 style Classic throw. I am searching for the throw and butt plate to make the drum correct. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Here's a link to the snare (top image) that shows the original throw: http://vintagedrumguide.com/images/ludwig_snaredrums/1957-ludwig-snare-drums-2.jpg

Thanks much!!!

Is it just like the one pictured in the link I posted?

If so, what is the condition and cost?

Thanks!

To clarify, I am looking for the style of P-87 where the word Classic is more of an engraved look: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4oybCcltE_k/T9YehOCqLWI/AAAAAAAAAMY/BwL6cC-2Zs0/s1600/Ludwig+Super+Classic+Snare+Drum.jpg

Rather than the name inside of a rectangle which is more 60's (I think?): http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/NjcxWDY3MQ==/z/io8AAMXQlUNRTQlp/$T2eC16J,!wsE9suw)0QBBRTQlp)SSg~~60_35.JPG

Thanks!
