Hi !
I just registred, and i am looking for the following part, to restore an old Premier snare.
The original snare wire is broken...it is twisted, veiled, and 2 strand are missing, it measure 16'inch.
You can see a view of the snare on the Premier website;
www.vintprem.moonfruit.com, just click on year, 1947.
The snare fit a paralell action strainer.
It's not royal ace or super ace or another, it's more old than this, there 's only 12 strands on the snare wire.
It's a 6,5 x 14' Premier snare, with die cast hoop, it is a triple flange black covering on metal shell, not brass.
It's a 8 old lugs, with slotted screw.
There is a badge outside, Premier " Made and registered in England ", every lugs is fixed with 2 screw and plate against vibration.
The tone control is equipped with a felt of the size of a penny
The inside of the shell is covered with an original cream painting color.
If anyone can help me, thanks for email, i can send pics for further information of the snare.
Thanks for your help...
