Hi everyone!
Just signed up as a new member today in an effort to learn more about vintage snares.
I live in Sweden and there is a very limited knowledge amongst drummers/dealers here when comes to vintage American drums.
I've just acquired a Ludwig&Ludwig 5x14 Pioneer model snare in nickel finish.
It's in decent players condition, extra holes and a few unoriginal parts.
What I'm trying to find out is what material the shell is, brass?
Was this an entry level drum or pro?
I'm very thankful for any info you can give me on this snare!
