Hi all,
I just got a '66 Ludwig Super Sensitive with some Premier drums and cymbals for very cheap so I am happy about that. The bad part is that the chrome on the snare looks really bad. I've polished the top hoop and one lug and they look good. The shell is the big issue. A good part of the chrome is either pitted or flaking off. I know you can't do much for that but it would be nice to get it a little nicer looking. Should I try to knock off the loose chrome and just polish the rest or should I leave it? Also, does anyone know what it would cost to have the shell re-chromed? Outside of that all the parts function perfectly and the drum sounds really good. What would the value be for one in such condition?
Thanks.
